Beatrice & Eugenie: Tarnished Princesses
Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie have been inseparable for decades. From early childhood, up until the official announcement of becoming royal mums - they have endured a huge deal of media coverage and heartbreaking revelations throughout their lives. They have seen everything from watching their parents go down in the media, to being left isolated in the press themselves, and were constantly amidst their parents shadow. The parents were an easy target, but the two princesses - were even easier targets. This is the story of the two tarnished princesses.
Mission to the Edge of Space: The Inside Story of Red Bull Stratos
In October of 2012, Red Bull Stratos was the flight test program that riveted the world, as Baumgartner ascended 24 miles above earth with a massive helium balloon. Wearing only a spacesuit, and with a mere 10 minutes of oxygen on his back, he jumped from the balloon’s capsule and accelerated from 0 to 843.6 miles per hour – Mach 1.25 – in just 50 seconds before eventually parachuting to the ground. Red Bull Stratos broke numerous world records, including several set by Kittinger in 1960, and delivered valuable scientific data to improve safety for future aviators and astronauts. It was also the most watched live stream in Internet history. The fascination continues with this breathtaking documentary, revealing new behind-the-scenes stories and footage from launch day and all through the project’s five years of development, including undisclosed dramas. Viewers get long-awaited details on Baumgartner’s faceplate heating issue, which nearly aborted the mission, and also hear intimate anecdotes from the team as they look back on the experience for the first time on camera.

Brennpunkt Djakarta
Mel Gibson, Sigourney Weaver og Linda Hunt spiller i denne historien om en naiv, australsk reporter som havner midt i et militærkupp i Indonesia i 1965. Ved hjelp av kortvokste lokalmann Billy Kwan (Hunt) og diplomat Jill Bryant (Weaver), blir Guy Hamilton (Gibson) plutselig en viktig nyhetsreporter med tilgang til innsideinformasjon om det kommende coup d'etat. Men Hamilton må ta et valg: For å lykkes som reporter – for å dele denne historien med verden – må han avsløre, og muligens ødelegge, de to menneskene som er glad i ham.
The Club
It's tough enough on the Australian Rules Football field, but in the boardroom it's a battle ground! In this club nobody plays by the rules. Outside the fans are cheering the high marks and the low tackles as their team battles towards the premiership. Inside, the executives are wheeling and dealing, back slapping and back stabbing.
