Professor Brian Cox joins Chris Lintott and the team to investigate one of the most intriguing new mysteries in modern astronomy. Observations from the James Webb Space Telescope have revealed hundreds of compact, extraordinarily bright objects known as “little red dots”, appearing less than a billion years after the Big Bang. Many may hide rapidly growing supermassive black holes, raising a profound question: how could such enormous objects have formed so early in cosmic history? The journey begins with the strange physics of black holes themselves, from event horizons and singularities to the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way and the gigantic black hole in the galaxy M87. With cosmologist Emma Chapman and Professor Sadegh Khochfar, the programme explores radical explanations for these ancient monsters, including primordial black holes born soon after the Big Bang and massive black holes formed directly from collapsing clouds of gas, bypassing stars altogether. Cutting-edge computer simulations recreate the first billion years of the universe and reveal how the earliest galaxies and black holes may have emerged within the cosmic web. These discoveries are forcing astronomers to reconsider not only how supermassive black holes grow, but how galaxies and the early universe itself evolved.
The Housemartins return to Hull during their breakthrough year of 1986 and revisit the places where the band began. Paul Heaton, Stan Cullimore, Norman Cook and Hugh Whitaker talk about forming the group, their sudden success and their determination to remain rooted in ordinary life despite growing fame. The film follows them through Hull, mixes informal conversations with rehearsals and performances, and includes songs such as Happy Hour, Sheep, Think for a Minute and Caravan of Love. The members also speak openly about their socialist views, religion, money and their distrust of the music industry, revealing the ideas behind their deliberately unglamorous image and sharply observant lyrics. Ending with a concert for their home audience, this documentary captures The Housemartins at the moment they were becoming nationally famous while still maintaining the humour, friendship and political convictions that defined the band.
For years, reports of unidentified aerial phenomena have remained hidden behind secrecy, speculation, and official denials. This gripping documentary follows investigative journalist and filmmaker Jeremy Corbell as he gains extraordinary access to witnesses, classified information, and sources connected to one of the most controversial mysteries of modern times. As new evidence emerges and long-held assumptions are challenged, the search for answers begins to reveal a story far more complex than many imagined. What starts as an investigation into unexplained sightings soon becomes a high-stakes journey into a world of government secrecy, whistleblowers, intelligence networks, and hidden information. With rare footage, firsthand testimony, and exclusive access to key figures at the center of the debate, the documentary explores the growing effort to uncover what may be one of the most significant discoveries of the modern era—and why some people believe the truth has remained hidden for so long.
A powerful investigative documentary that follows the growing wave of protests, arrests, and confrontations triggered by federal immigration raids across the United States. Through tense firsthand footage, courtroom revelations, and testimonies from protesters, lawyers, journalists, and federal officials, the film traces how demonstrations in cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, and Minneapolis spiraled into violent clashes, sweeping arrests, and accusations of extremism. As cases begin collapsing under legal scrutiny, disturbing questions emerge about the methods used during the crackdown, the reliability of official narratives, and the true cost of suppressing dissent. Blending investigative journalism with chaotic street-level reality, the documentary creates an atmosphere of mounting tension and uncertainty as ordinary citizens suddenly find themselves caught between protest movements, aggressive law enforcement tactics, and a deeply divided political climate. What begins as a story about immigration enforcement gradually becomes a gripping portrait of fear, resistance, civil liberties, and the fragile line separating public order from political intimidation.
Fifteen years after becoming a global sensation as the tallest man on Earth, Sultan Kosen returns in a deeply personal and emotionally charged documentary that reveals the hidden cost of living inside a body that never stopped growing. Standing over 2.51 metres tall, Sultan became famous across the world, but behind the records and media attention was a painful battle against a rare medical condition that threatened both his mobility and his life. Now, as worsening health problems force him to rely increasingly on wheelchairs, he travels to London for critical medical evaluations that could determine whether his body can still be saved. At the same time, another life-changing moment approaches: Guinness World Records must officially measure him once again to decide whether he still holds the title that shaped his entire identity. But beyond the fame, the documentary reveals a far more intimate story — his failed marriage, his loneliness, and his continuing hope of finding love and building a family. Combining emotional honesty, medical suspense, and the extraordinary reality of a man unlike any other, the film builds toward a gripping conclusion that could change Sultan’s future forever.
