Weird Britain
With host Andy McGrath, Weird Britain celebrates all the things wild, weird and wonderful about our enigmatic island. Each episode visits a different region of Great Britain and explores the history, myths, traditions and legends associated with it.
From mermaids to haunted houses, Stonehenge to the Beast of Exmoor, there is no limit or shortage of what makes Britain weird. Highlights include searches for Excalibur and Bigfoot, encounters with Black Shuck and Hobbits, and the most technologically advanced search for the Loch Ness Monster in over half a century.
Weird Britain will air Wednesdays from 3rd April at 10pm on BLAZE.
Curse of the Ancients
In Curse of the Ancients, Professor Alice Roberts reveals how scientists have unearthed evidence of cataclysmic events in the past and their disastrous consequences. Wars, earthquakes, floods and famines – these are the events that have helped shape our modern world.
In each episode, Alice takes viewers on a journey across Europe and North Africa to discover epic sites and landmarks. These include abandoned cities, long-forgotten battlefields and toppled civilisations that have all been lost to the mists of time. To our ancient ancestors suffering these catastrophic events, it must have seemed they were cursed but science is now exploding those myths and re-writing history.
Curse of the Ancients will air Fridays from 5th April at 9pm on BLAZE.
Curse of Skinwalker Ranch
This fascinating series is set at Skinwalker Ranch, a 500-acre piece of land that is the site of purported paranormal and UFO-related activities, and follows a team of investigators and sceptics who are trying to find some truth in the reports.
Curse of Skinwalker Ranch features the team utilising technologies such as ground-penetrating radar to investigate anomalies like ionising radiation, dire wolves, UFOs, a human bone discovered in an airtight cellar, and cattle mutilations.
