In the first three episodes of Season 2, the uneasy peace after Rome’s defeat begins to unravel. Arminius suspects the Romans are rebuilding their strength and turns to Marbod, the powerful leader of the Marcomanni, hoping to forge a broader Germanic alliance before Rome can strike again. At the same time, his brother Flavus returns to Germania in Roman service, reopening old wounds and forcing Arminius to confront the family he left behind. Thusnelda takes dangerous risks of her own, infiltrating the Roman camp as tensions rise on both sides. The situation becomes even more explosive when Marbod secretly meets Tiberius in an attempt to secure peace with Rome, while Germanicus questions Flavus’s loyalty and the Romans exploit every division among the tribes. Arminius brings his son Gaius into the village, then turns against Marbod when he discovers the depth of his dealings with Rome, while Thusnelda reacts furiously to the secrets Arminius has kept from her. These opening episodes turn the struggle into a dangerous web of betrayal, family conflict and political ambition, where every alliance could decide the future of Germania.
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.
Deep beneath the surface of the internet lies a hidden world built on anonymity, encryption, and unimaginable crimes. In this gripping investigative documentary, an elite international task force of undercover officers ventures into the most dangerous digital territories to track down predators who believe they are untouchable. Led by determined U.S. agent Greg Squire, the team navigates complex cyber networks, encrypted marketplaces, and secret forums where every click could mean the difference between rescue and disappearance. Blending real operations with unprecedented access to those on the front lines, this powerful exposé reveals the technological cat-and-mouse battle between law enforcement and criminals operating in the shadows. As the stakes escalate and time runs out, viewers witness not only the scale of the global threat but also the relentless dedication of those risking everything to bring children to safety. It is a tense, emotional, and ultimately hopeful look at courage in the darkest corners of the digital age.
In the final two episodes, the focus shifts to forests and humanity’s defining role in the planet’s future. Ancient woodlands emerge as powerful engines of climate balance, storing vast amounts of carbon while sustaining intricate webs of life. Through striking visuals and frontline science, the documentary reveals how the health of the world’s forests is inseparable from the stability of Earth’s climate—and how their decline accelerates global risk. The story then turns inward, asking what responsibility humans bear in shaping what comes next. From indigenous stewardship to bold restoration projects, these episodes explore how human choices can either deepen the crisis or unlock nature’s capacity to heal. It’s a compelling conclusion that reframes our relationship with the natural world, showing that the future of nature is, ultimately, the future of humanity itself.
All three episodes of this remarkable series are presented together in a single video on our website. This powerful documentary gives voice to the people of New Orleans, from the terror and chaos of the storm to the long, painful aftermath. As Hurricane Katrina approaches, the city orders a voluntary evacuation that soon becomes mandatory, but for many it is already too late. Trapped by rising waters, stranded in shelters like the Superdome, powerless without federal help, thousands are forced to endure the unendurable. Yet it is also a story of resilience, of neighbors helping neighbors, of grief and recovery. Two decades later, survivors reflect on what they lost and how their culture and communities have been forever changed. With rare footage and emotional testimonies, this film becomes essential viewing.
In this powerful continuation of his personal journey, Chris Hemsworth takes viewers around the world to test the boundaries of body and mind. Confronted with chronic back pain and concerns about memory decline, he seeks answers not in laboratories but in life-changing challenges designed by scientists, health experts, and elite trainers. From the nerve-racking task of learning to play the drums—culminating in a breathtaking live performance with Ed Sheeran before 70,000 fans—to enduring brutal Special Forces–style trials in South Korea involving electrocution, pepper spray, and freezing waters, each step reveals the fragile balance between vulnerability and resilience. His raw honesty and willingness to fail make the journey as intimate as it is inspiring. On our website, viewers can enjoy the entire adventure with the three episodes combined into a single video, seamlessly following Hemsworth as he explores how to live better, face fear, and unlock the science of resilience and longevity.
