After Carthage: The Destruction Of Rome's Greatest Rival | The Roman Holocaust

In 1961 when President Kennedy pledged to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade, no rocket existed with the power or capability to rise to the challenge. In order to win the race to space, the United States would need to establish a multi-billion dollar space program. One man, Werner Von Braun believed he had the knowledge and vision to make Kennedy's dream a reality. With the American public galvanised and the expertise of over 200,000 scientists and engineers, Von Braun masterminded the development of the Saturn V; the rocket that flew 24 men to the moon and launched the greatest adventure in the history of exploration. This is the story of the most powerful machine ever built, and the men and women who believed it could fly. Using visual effects, stunning NASA footage and expert interviews with Apollo Space Scientists, this inspirational film tells the story of the colossal challenges NASA faced to fulfill Kennedy's pledge.

Explore Winchester, Alfred the Great's capital, from coronation origins to St Cross and Henry VIII's painted Round Table. From a Celtic ford and Roman town to Saxon Wynton Cester, Winchester rose with Alfred the Great during England's struggle against the Danes. After retreating to the Somerset marshes, Alfred reorganized Wessex and established Winchester as a center of government, worship, and learning. The Great Hall of the Norman castle housed the treasury and exchequer, kept the Domesday Book, and even hosted parliaments into the 1300s. After a fire in 1302, the bishop's palace near the cathedral became the preferred royal residence. Bishop Henry de Blois founded the Hospital of St Cross, England's oldest almshouse, originally for 13 poor men. Two orders of brothers remain, in black and in purple, with weekly tokens of charity that recall centuries of care. In the 15th century, Cardinal Henry Beaufort, so powerful he once pawned the royal crown to lend money to the king, expanded this vision of welfare and service. Winchester Cathedral grew from the Old Minster, the spiritual heart of Wessex. Here the

A daring plan, a deadly corridor, and one bridge that changed everything. Step onto the streets of Arnhem as the Allies launch Operation Market Garden, a high-stakes bid to end the war by Christmas. From Joe’s Bridge to the Lower Rhine, witness how flawless planning met fierce resistance: radios fail at critical moments, drop zones lie eight miles from the target, and SS Panzer divisions refit faster than expected. See why John Frost’s 2nd Battalion dug in at the road bridge with dwindling ammo and water, how the stormboat assault at Nijmegen turned the tide there, and why the Polish brigade’s delayed drop mattered more than anyone feared. Tiger tanks, broken tow ropes, lost gliders, and a nighttime evacuation known as Operation Berlin all collide in a battle that still provokes “what if?” Discover the courage, the missteps, and the razor-thin margins that made Arnhem a legend.

From the omen of 1066's long-haired star to Hastings and the Harrowing of the North, this episode charts William the Conqueror's brutal rise. In History Makers, we trace the Norman story from Viking roots to the making of a king. We meet Rolf the Ganger and the birth of Normandy under Charles the Simple, then enter William's perilous childhood: assassination plots, the murder of his guardian Osborne Crepon, and years of anarchy. We see the young duke's iron resolve at Alençon, where taunts of "hides for the tanner" triggered a ruthless reprisal, and his strategic marriage to Matilda of Flanders. With Edward the Confessor's death, rival claims ignite. We examine Harold Godwinson's disputed oath in Normandy, William's papal-backed invasion force, and the contrasting battle doctrines of Norman combined arms of archers, spearmen and cavalry, as shown on the Bayeux Tapestry, versus the Anglo-Saxon shield wall and Dane axes. After Harold's dash north to defeat Harald Hardrada and Tostig at Stamford Bridge, the stage is set at Senlac Hill. At Hastings, arrows, infantry and cavalry grind at the Saxon line. When
