And what are they for? Investigators uncover the hidden story of the Kingdom of Kush, a state locked into a fluctuating rivalry with its mighty neighbour, Egypt.

But when the airship Hindenburg exploded in a gigantic ball of fire over New Jersey in May 1937, it also became one of the most shocking images ever filmed. What caused the disaster? Was it the victim of sabotage, as the American authorities thought? A fatal flaw in its cutting-edge design? And why was the airship using hydrogen, rather than the much safer helium?
