Our latest show from Like A Shot gives an in-depth look at a crucial moment in history. A fascinating documentary not to be missed.
Following the devastating bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki surrender by Japan seemed inevitable. However, there were those within the Japanese military willing to avoid the dishonour of defeat whatever the cost, even if that meant staging a coup to overthrow Emperor Hirohito.

Amazing work by Windfall Films to get exclusive access to the investigation into one of the most shocking and catastrophic engineering disasters of recent memory. An unmissable documentary!
On March 26th a shipping container suffered a total power failure and crashed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. Six people tragically died, and an iconic piece of Baltimore was destroyed.

How could this happen?
