The Universe IV (3)
The Day The Moon Was Gone. Without the moon, the earth would be a very different and desolate place today: four hours of sunlight with pitch-black nights, steady 100mph winds spawning giant hurricanes lasting for months, and virtually no complex life forms, much less humans.
Ancient Aliens IX (10)
The Hidden Empire. Ancient astronaut theorists suggest that evidence of extraterrestrial visitation exists in every corner of the Earth, but some say the most compelling can be found in one of the world's least accessible places - China.
Private Lives (4)
Private Lives of the Holy Men. Exploring the legend of 'Pope Joan', how Pope Gregory turned the persecution of heretics into an art form during the Inquisition of 1232, and the murder, greed and excesses of the Borgias.
Nostradamus Effect (4)
Doomsday Hieroglyphs. Why did the Egyptians believe that a comet called The Destroyer, which passes by earth every 3000 years, will cause unimaginable destruction in 2012? Can we avoid our fate by heeding these warnings from the distant past?
WW2 Treasure Hunters (3)
Tank in a Vineyard. Suggs and Stephen continue their hunt for buried WWII treasure, and discover a tank buried in a vineyard.

Boneyard (7)
Ships. When a ship reaches the end of its useful life, it quickly goes from being the pride of the fleet to a liability. These veteran warriors are blown to pieces in weapons tests, or sold and cut up for scrap.
Mystery Pickers (8)
A Viking And A Curse. The guys look at two objects that may be worth big money - if they're not cursed. Plus, they examine a mysterious object saved from the destruction of Hurricane Katrina, and an alleged Viking drinking horn.

Boneyard (8)
Mines. Modern ore processing machines are the largest, most sophisticated of their type in the world. When they wear out, they join the boneyards, waiting to be restored or scrapped for the furnace.
Mystery Pickers (9)
Brass Ball. A strange brass ball has Leonard and Blue intrigued, while Dale tries to figure out if a rare microscope was owned by Thomas Jefferson. Other finds include a strange carving pulled from a river and a broken statue treasured by one man's father.
The Universe IV (4)
Death Stars. For most it is the deadly centerpiece of the film Star Wars. But in reality, real death stars are in the final stage of life before they explode into supernovae, and occassionally, the biggest blast in the universe: the gamma ray burst.
Ancient Aliens IX (11)
Space Station Moon. What if the Moon is not the natural object we believe it to be? Unidentified lunar objects in NASA photography may point to extra-terrestrial structures on the moon, and possibly evidence of what lies beneath the surface.
Abandoned Engineering (4)
Ghost Ships. Dive into the past to find out how the largest mass scuttling of ships in history was linked with medical research and the space programme. We ask why the US government spent millions on a fleet of war ships in WWI, then deliberately destroyed them.
Hitler: Uncovering His Fatal Obsession (2)
Concluding this two-part documentary telling how a war with Soviet Russia was always a precondition for the fulfilment of Hitler's racial vision, and how the conflict would finally play out.
