This documentary re-examines the happenings of the supposed UFO encounter, with accounts from Jesse Marcel, Frankie Rowe and Walter Haut. Was it a weather balloon that crashed in New Mexico? Or was it something more? Governments have secrets. After years of silences, secrecy and classified documents, researchers struck gold as a previously hidden Pentagon UFO report was discovered. This began a storm of revelations that took investigators closer than ever before to solving the mystery of the alien autopsy and to finally finding out what really happened in the desert of Roswell in 1947. Strange space crafts, giant beings, otherworldly humanoids and feathered serpents played a predominant role in the paintings, carvings, monuments and sculptures created by ancient man, strongly indicating the presence of an advanced race of beings at that time who perhaps influenced the evolution of humanity during their formative stage of existence. Perceived by early man as Gods of the Underworld and Light, the lives

Tupac Shakur: Afeni, Rikers, and the Quad Studio Ambush

A child of the Panthers. A prodigy with a pen. A target in Times Square. This episode traces Tupac Shakur’s extraordinary climb and the forces that shaped him long before the fame. From Afeni Shakur’s radical roots to Mutulu’s influence, we follow Pac through Harlem stages, Baltimore School for the Arts, and Digital Underground — toward the breakthrough of 2Pacalypse Now and the tenderness of Dear Mama. Then the night at Quad Recording Studios changes everything. Why did the room upstairs feel so wrong? What did Pac see that made him check himself out of the hospital within hours? Inside Rikers, his reading list, a marriage, and a vow to come out different — before All Eyez on Me rewrites chart history and the East West feud hits boiling point. Finally, Las Vegas, unanswered questions, and the legacy Afeni fought to protect. Watch to uncover the overlooked family history, the courtrooms, the studio sessions, and the clues that still provoke debate. The story is bigger — and more human — than the headlines ever showed.

The Headless Man of the Severn: Did Brian Sullivan Kill Captain Butte?

A headless torso in the River Severn, a missing ex-army captain, and a son found gassed. Our experts revisit 1938's baffling Headless Man case. In Roy Marsden's Incident Room, a 21st century jury of experts re-examines the evidence: psychologist and profiler Kerry Dames, journalist and crime novelist Hilary Bonner, retired senior investigator Mick Turner, and forensic scientist Alan Baker. What was the method? What was the motive? Were clues missed? The timeline opens on January 4, 1938. After sending Nurse Sullivan and his ailing wife Edith to the Gomont to watch Love Is News, Captain William Butte vanished from their Cheltenham home. Weeks later, fishermen near Hawbridge hauled a bloated torso from the River Severn, tied to white bricks with cord; crowds swelled to thousands as more limbs were found, each weighted, the hands and head missing. Meanwhile, on January 24, Nurse Sullivan discovered her son Brian apparently gassed at Tower Lodge. Detectives searching Tower Lodge on February 7 uncovered white bricks ripped from an alcove, identical bricks in the garden, and matching rope and string. The house contained Butte's
