Gold

The extraordinary story of the world's largest robbery - the theft of £26 million of gold bars from the Brink's-Mat warehouse in November 1983. Eight men have already been convicted for their part in the story; two others were acquitted at a recent, highly publicised Old Bailey trial. With the help of the man leading the police hunt, Det Chief Supt Boyce , and with insights into the criminal underworld from Andrew Jennings and John McVicar , the film follows the tortuous trail of the gold. Using some dramatic reconstruction, it shows how this massive amount of gold, beyond the robbers' wildest expectations, was smelted in a garden shed, passed over the counter of unsuspicious local banks, and fed into an international 'money laundering' operation, with much of it ending up, thanks to Britain's relaxed exchange controls, in the American drugs market.

Bullenblut 2

After years of absence, the Yakuza Gang around Max and Jay Jay are finally up to mischief again. And it would be all right for the naughty homies if the Deliquentes Clan could keep their hands off the big deal. The police, who are known not to shy away from losses, are getting closer and closer to resolving the case through the clever investigation by special agent Joe Miller ... But in this world, where violence is preferred over prudence, the barometer stands for death - and that's exactly what we're going to see. Bullenblut 2 is supposed to reveal how things really go on Winterthur's streets, nothing more and nothing less.

Fred & Rose: The Unanswered Questions

Fred and Rose West were a married couple who killed at least ten young British girls, some of them their own daughters. February 24, 1994 was the beginning of the end -- the end of the extraordinary things that had been going on in the ordinary three-story house in central Gloucester. But it was also the beginning of a discovery as the layers of secrets hidden at 25 Cromwell Street were slowly peeled away. Twenty years on, Sky News investigates the unanswered questions with an in depth documentary.

Bare-Handed

Martin Meyer is an Imam called Husamuddin. Imam Meyer fights his own war against ISIS by teaching the Koran. He deals with religious training and his students are the inmates of the Wiesbaden prison, in the heart of Germany. Imam Meyer knows these inmates well, some of them are returning fighters, they went to Syria to join ISIS and then fled back to Germany. They all are Germans citizens, second or third generation's immigrants coming from Islamic countries: misfits, excluded, marginalized and fascinated by the words of the ISIS recruiters. Prisons always have been a fertile ground for the seeds of revenge, social redemption and hatred.

Wieselflink & Brandtgefährlich - Gefallen

Brandt is not at all pleased that Wiesel has been honored for his police work. As a silly argument breaks out between the two investigators, Köster and Seidenpfennig take over. Because a new case requires the utmost professionalism: The universally unpopular Volker Pinkwardt lies dead in his apartment with a head wound. A tragic accident or murder? More and more suspects and questions emerge. And then there's the question of why Wiesel has been behaving so strangely lately, regardless of his quarrel with Brandt?

Charles Whitman - The Texas Sniper

Texas sniper Charles Whitman's story stands out for many reasons, not least of which being that it features a co-star - the University of Texas Tower from which he fired almost unimpeded for 96 minutes. On the surface, Charles Whitman would have seemed as steady and upstanding as the tower itself - he came from a wealthy, prominent family in Lake Worth, Florida, was a gifted student, an accomplished pianist and an Eagle Scout. But this veneer could not be further from the truth as this look inside his warped mind reveals. On August 1st 1966, Charles Whitman climbed the University of Texas Clock Tower with his high-powered rifles and killed 14 people and wounded 31 others. Interviews with those who knew him well and excerpts from Whitman's own writings reveal how his murderous personality was formed and why his violent nature remained hidden for so long.
