In truth, these people came from Northern Holland, from the lower Elbe, from the Jutland peninsula and from the Schleswig. And yet these northern people enjoyed a golden age unaffected by a Rome. Evidence from the priceless hoard of Tureholm, and from richly furnished cemeteries in Sweden, reveal a rich and powerful people; ambitious, too, for just 30 years after the Romans relinquished Britain, the "Anglo - Saxons" made their move By 455, they had swept in through England's East Coast, drawing mythical but petty resistance - the legend of King Arthur almost certainly dates from this time. Although the real knights of the Round Table were feeble, helplessly calling the Romans back for help, as the Saxons swept forward pushing the Celts into Scotland, Wales, and Cornwall.

It is a journey that takes us all across Europe, from the cold northern seas off Scandinavia to the heart of the Great Hungarian plain, discovering the secrets of forgotten empires, and of mighty clashes throughout Europe, as hordes of migrants flooded into the Roman world across the Rhine, as Asiatic nomads swarmed over the Alps, as African Berber armies struck deep into Spain. The books tell us that the barbarians created nothing worth having. But new evidence reveals that this was far from the truth, that the so-called barbarians created the modern map of Europe, that they were often tolerant and far seeing peoples, that they created great art and democratic values, that the barbarian legacy lives on in us today.

When the United States of America went to War in Vietnam, it was a nation riding high. Confident and ambitious, the world's greatest superpower expected this would be an easy war. Inspired by their charismatic young president, many ordinary Americans, too, felt it was their duty to champion democracy around the world. But just a few years later they withdrew from Vietnam, humiliated and in disarray. How could America have lost? Bringing together the latest research on the ground and the testimony of veterans from both sides, the film investigates why America - the world's richest nation - couldn't protect South Vietnam from tiny, poverty-stricken North Vietnam.

And now, new cutting edge techniques of DNA science can answer the question, where did we come from and what did we look like?
In 2017, the Natural History Museum will revealed the results of the most eagerly anticipated ancient genetic analysis in Britain today, carried out on the most important single skeleton in our history. A crack team at the Museum is creating a full DNA sequence of ‘Cheddar Man’ – at 10,000 years old, the oldest complete human remains ever found in Britain. He and his clan were among the first humans to populate a deserted Britain at the end of the Ice Age. Because human occupation of these islands has been continuous ever since, he really is our earliest ancestor: the first Brit.

We see inside a women's prison where the concept is not to have a warehouse for prisoners but more a school for rehabilitation. Prisoners are allowed to discuss why they are being detained and how they are treated. Life in a showpiece psychiatric hospital is also shown, where it is said patient's efforts earn half the running costs. At an old people's home, many of the elderly residents still prefer life before the revolution. They were the only ones who openly expressed any dissatisfaction with the new life.

Though on the surface the town seems to have altered little, there have been radical changes in how the society is organised. There are no longer sugar barons and peasant workers, but a new elite has emerged composed of high-ranking members of the communist party, members of the armed forces and family friends of Castro. Cane cutters are the new aristocracy of the Cuban workforce in a w which still dominates the country's economy. The Caribbean Island is the largest exporter of sugar in the world and the programme visits a modern factory which turns the sugar into finished products for export. Fishing and cigars are two more industries featured in the programme which have both seen changes during the revolution. Subscribe to Our History: bit.ly/3v5mKBG

Candy rose through the ranks of the celebrated Second City theatre group, and went on to appear in over 40 films, winning acclaim for his performances in classic films such as Splash and Cool Runnings. His death certificate stated that he died of a heart attack but what was the cause? John Candy was known for his larger-than-life persona, and he battled with his weight throughout his life. But it seems that events that unfolded in Mexico on the set of Wagons East could have also contributed to his shocking and untimely death at the age of just 43. World-renowned forensic pathologist Dr Michael Hunter will analyse every detail of Candy's death certificate, along with the testimonies from those closest to John, to understand what ultimately caused the death of a Hollywood icon.
