Art of Germany

In an absorbing study, Andrew Graham-Dixon tells the story of a national art that conveys passion, precision, hope and renewal. He juxtaposes escapism with control and a deep affinity with nature against love for the machine. The fascinating story takes us from the towering cathedral of Cologne, the woodcuts of Albrecht Dürer and paintings of Grünewald to the gothic fairytale Neuschwanstein Castle, the Baltic landscapes of Caspar David Friedrich and the industrialisation lent expression of Adolph Menzel and Käthe Kollwitz. As the series progresses, it presents a rare focus on the cultural impact of Hitler's obsession with visual art, reveals how art became an arena for the Cold War and examines the redemptive work of the "visionary" Joseph Beuys – the most influential artist of modern times.

Mafia, Parasite

The Italian Mafia is often referred to as an octopus, its many arms symbolising the clan’s countless branches, with which it ominously and sinisterly penetrates all areas of society. But Italian investigators consider this comparison dangerous and erroneous, as the Mafia rather more resembles one of evolutionsmost intelligent entities: the parasite. This documentary, based on Sicilians in their campaign against the world’s oldest Mafia organisation, the Cosa Nostra, explains how it succeeded in penetrating the brain of the system like a parasite. In doing so, barely known chapters of recent Italian history are brought to light. The documentary shows the example of the Cosa Nostra, the Mafia is now a global company and their influence despite all search successes of recent years rather than growing waning.

Scrap Kings

An explosive series following work of demolition, salvage and waste management experts as they blast, crush and smash their way through a variety of structures which have had their day. And once they're down, the real work begins. From tower blocks to ships, to bridges to Victorian mansions…Every inch of material is removed as everything (and we mean everything) has value if you know where to take it and, more importantly, know when to sell it. With projects on this scale even a small shift in international metal markets could spell disaster for the Scrap Kings.

D-Day: The Soldiers' Story

June 1944. 1.5 million Allied soldiers stand poised to embark on the largest amphibious assault in military history. For tens of thousands of young American soldiers in particular, this war against the Nazis seems like an adventure. Most are overseas for the first time, and few have any experience of combat. For those bound for Omaha Beach, the baptism of fire will come at 0630 on 6th June – H-Hour, D-Day. It will prove a horrifying and unforgettable experience. D-Day: The Soldiers’ Story features the intimate personal testimony of the men who formed the spearhead of the Allied liberation of Western Europe on that fateful day. They include survivors of the US 29th Infantry Division’s first assault wave at Omaha Beach, the German machine-gunners who resisted them, and members of the French Resistance in Normandy. Expert analysis is provided by Antony Beevor (D-Day, Stalingrad, Berlin) and German military historian Peter Lieb.
