It's the biggest museum in the world…the museum of artworks stolen over the centuries and never rediscovered. These works haunt the nightmares of their owners, and occupy the days of hundreds of police officers across the world, as well as those of a handful of private agencies; no country or museum of importance can claim to have been spared.

How could it be otherwise, when the soaring price of art propels the value of some paintings into the tens of millions of Euros? This world appears to be full of mysteries. Crime syndicates rub shoulders with petty criminals and the police care more about recovering the items than they do about arresting the perpetrators.

Disasters in the air and misfortunes at sea grab our attention because of the unusually large number of fatalities involved. But it's not even necessary to leave dry land for a terrible disaster to happen. Rail journeys and even just getting in your car can be fraught with disaster. That's the focus for this instalment of Desperate Hours – road and rail disasters. We will examine the causes of such accidents, be that the powers of nature or human folly. We are about to explore the worst of the worst destructive events from an ordinary day on Nigerian roads to a disastrous display of human error in Santiago de Compostella when the driver of a loaded passenger train went about 115 km/h over the established speed limit and drove his train straight into a wall. So buckle up; you're in for a bumpy ride…

How did Prussia overcome Napoleon and fight its way to the front in the race to modernity?

70 years after Auschwitz Museum was founded as the memorial site of the Shoah, this site is subject to diversions, confrontations and plundering. Several attempts to exploit and rewrite its history are at work. The danger of desensitization through mass tourism, or the attempts of the local town and its citizens to simply erase the nightmare to make place for new urban landscape are real threats affecting the future of this memorial site. Today, as the last survivors are passing on, what to do with the Auschwitz site?

Geoffrey Herbert Malins is the first war 'kinematographer' in history. The documentary he shot during the Battle of the Somme drew over 20 million British viewers in 1916. For years controversy has raged around the film due to its disconcerting violence and overt propagandist agenda,. Now, new research has proven that most of the scenes are indeed a real minute-by-minute record of the most disastrous battle in British military history. The film is a reflexion on the history of cinema and the ability to document historical events on film.

As warfare has evolved, many military techniques and technologies have been adapted for use in urban settings by police units around the world. This episode provides viewers with an intimate perspective on what it feels like to be "inside the heads" of special police personnel, and how their use of military-style strategies and equipment allows them to save lives. From riot control in South Africa and the lessons learned from its excesses, to Los Angeles Police Chief Robert Gates' creation of an elite police S.W.A.T team, CQB will showcase how, over the past 30 years, the fight against urban crime has evolved into a military scenario, with both sides using increasingly complex weaponry and tactics.

After the fall of the soviet union many countries remained in dispute in the early nineties despite eastern Europe's independence. In 1994 a bitter conflict broke out between the forces of the Chechnen independence movement and the Russian regular army. Despite overwhelming manpower, weaponry and air support, the Russian forces were unable to establish effective permanent control over the mountainous area due to many successful Chechen guerrilla raids. Improvised Explosive Devices were one of the most effective methods employed in these disastrous raids and were the back drop to many Close Quarter Battle scenarios exchanged between the two sides.

Archaeological findings and CGI shed new light on key conflicts. Obersalzberg was an ordinary Bavarian mountain retreat until Adolf Hitler discovered it in 1923.

Award-winning documentary films produced to enlighten future generations about the personal stories of the WWII generations.

Following the September 11 attacks, military presence became commonplace in New York and other American cities, and the counterterrorism forces were eff ectively given a "blank cheque" when it came to ensuring that another terrorist incident would never take place on American soil. This episode of CQB takes an in-depth look at who was selected to occupy elite anti-terrorist positions, what they were trained for, and how they were equipped: when opposing forces are using commercial airliners and chemical weapons, countermeasures are by necessity complicated and varied. CQB takes an intimate look at what it was like to be an offi cer on alert for chemical attacks in Washington DC, or an army reservist monitoring suspicious activities on the streets of NYC.

It's the biggest museum in the world…the museum of artworks stolen over the centuries and never rediscovered. These works haunt the nightmares of their owners, and occupy the days of hundreds of police officers across the world, as well as those of a handful of private agencies; no country or museum of importance can claim to have been spared.

This episode is a sobering survey of environmental disasters-such as deforestation and pollution on land, in the sea, and in the air-and their causes.

High up in the mountains of north-eastern Madagascar lives one of the world's most critically endangered primates. There are less than a thousand Silky Sifakas alive today and this area of remote rainforest, known as Marojejy-Anjanaharibe-Sud, is their only home.In the past, the rugged terrain here kept the Silkies relatively safe but things are now changing at an alarming pace. This magical place is under serious threat from illegal logging operations as international demand for highly sought-after rosewood and ebony increases. Unscrupulous logging gangs are encroaching on the Silkies' last remaining habitat."Trouble in Lemur Land" follows two men, an American primatologist and a Malagasy conservationist, on their quest to protect this rare species, at the same time providing a rare glimpse into the life of this extraordinarily beautiful and graceful animal.The film centres around the arrival of two babies in the group - a glimmer of hope in an otherwise desperate situation. Lemur reproduction rates are slow and Silkies only mate one day in the year, so it is a very special moment when primatologist Erik Patel sees the newborns for the first time. He has a permanent camp on the outskirts of their last remaining territory and we are given a rare glimpse into this intimate, close-knit group as the babies develop in the sanctuary of the forest canopy.Meanwhile, taking advantage of long-term political instability, the loggers are steadily extracting Madagascar's rosewood for export to China. Although they are well armed and highly motivated, conservationist Desire Rabary is not afraid to confront them, regardless of the risks. He heads up a network of local people who play a vital role in the survival of the forest and its lemurs. Over the past five years, he has worked hard to actively expose the loggers' illegal trail of destruction but, as this film reveals, the heart of the problem starts on his own doorstep.This 50-minute HD film brings the forest to life, with stunning images of many of its other species, including the striking helmet vanga bird, white-fronted brown lemur, red-bellied lemur, green tree frogs, panther chameleons and the elusive fossa. This treasure trove of endemic Madagascan wildlife is a timely reminder of what we stand to lose if the environmental issues so critical to their survival are not urgently addressed.

Herpetologist Vince Shacks and cameraman Brad Bestelink enter a dark and mysterious realm, noosing a wild Nile crocodile underwater.

The cheetah is a highly specialised animal. It excels at one thing alone, running down high-speed prey faster than any other mammal on earth.But this specialisation comes at a cost. The cheetah as a predatory model seems focussed on one single area of expertise. Outside of pursuing prey, how effective is this animal when compared to the other apex predators of the savannah?Alongside lions, leopards, vultures and hyenas how does the cheetah fit into the efficient cogs of the savannah system? Can it compete, or is it an outsider, cornered by it's own specialisation?The primary character in the story is a cheetah mother, who goes about her daily life, hunting for her three cubs. Her trials and tribulations highlight the refined hunting system of the cheetah, but they also shed light on her weaknesses, and the lack of robustness in the species itself.

BRUMBY Wild horses are truly a symbol of majestic power: strong , sleek elegant - the ultimate untamable free spirit, galloping unbridled across the land. Almost a million Brumbies grace Australia's landscapes. The powerful galloping horse, the mighty hopping kangaroo, the endurance running wildebeest, the bounding pronghorn or the sprinting cheetah, which one is the most impressive across land?

Fanged Spiders with their scurrying bites. The Scorpion with its deadly sting... A sinister cold bloodied crocodile. The hypnotizing venomous snake. Or the King of Beasts, the Lion? Which one is the most dangerous? LION Giraffes are eternally majestic, buffalo formidable, but with their golden fur, regal mane and fearsome presence lions are known as the "King of Beasts" SCORPIONS A barely habitable burnt corner of the earth, parched and sun drenched... Once the sun has set and temperatures drop, the night time wilderness becomes a very dangerous place. SPIDERS With long legs that weave inescapable snares, spiderlings that hatch in their hundreds….and fangs that inject lethal venom into their prey, spiders strike fear into many people.

Volcanoes, earthquakes, tidal waves, and fires. Cataclysmic events that are capable of wiping out thousands of lives in a terribly short space of time. Then there are epidemics and pandemics, particularly chilling in their own way, because they literally and figuratively get under the skin. Let's not forget man-made disasters, the industrial accidents and environmental disasters that highlight all that is worst about our presence on this fragile blue green planet. And what is more frightening than a nuclear calamity? Accidents on the road, on rail, in the air and at sea, well, may not have quite the same deadly power as volcanoes or earthquakes; but they hold their own terrors, and are responsible for 1000s of fatalities every year. In this sobering yet thrilling final instalment of Desperate Hours we will take a look at some of the worst of the worst.

More than 50 countries now possess weapons based on depleted uranium (DU). Experimentation has been rife, and the consequences for civilians and the military alike have been dramatic. This investigation compares and contrasts the arguments of those who defend and attack a technology that is highly toxic. For 20 years, scientists, doctors, veterans and activists have denounced the use of DU. Against them are the arms industry lobbyists and nuclear authorities who continue to minimise the risks. Through archive documents, interviews and in situ investigations, accompanied by key witnesses (victims, experts...) we aim to present a clearer picture of the issues and stakes linked to the use of DU. Quick-paced, with a sense of urgency, the film underlines the essential background and conflicting viewpoints, enabling viewers to make up their own minds about a subject that concerns us all.
