Season 3, Episode 13 - "The Quest for Camelot"
According to legend, he was Britain's greatest King. His name was King Arthur. He led his Knights of the Round Table from Camelot, a vast, spectacular castle built on a hill, and was supposed to have bravely fought Anglo-Saxon invaders and united the country. But there's very little evidence he really existed. History wasn't written in the Dark Ages, an era said to have been ruled by barbarism and chaos. The only way to really prove he existed was to find something with his name on it, maybe even Excalibur or the remains of the Round Table. Maybe even Camelot itself.

Season 3, Episode 7 - "The Men Who Found the Maya"
In the early nineteenth century, stories emerged of mysterious ruins that lay buried and forgotten, deep inside the jungles of Central America. But a lost civilisation in this region was thought to be impossible in the 1800s. Everyone knew that the continent had only ever been peopled by savages, and they couldn't have created such sophisticated structures. But then a young American lawyer named John Lloyd Stephens, and a British artist, Frederick Catherwood, went to seek out these ruins for themselves. They travelled hundreds of miles through the jungles of Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras and eventually uncovered forty-four buried and forgotten cities. All with a common architectural style that confirmed that there was once a single, vast civilisation that had existed in a place where nobody believed there could be one. But, for all their extraordinary revelations, there was still one question they could not answer. Who were the people who built this place?

This image on a transparent cloth, seemingly not made by human hands, is believed to be the only existing image of the living face of Jesus and could potentially revolutionise Christian beliefs and concepts. Historically the 'face of God' has been linked to the one of the greatest Catholic relics 'the Veil of Veronica', a similar miraculous image, created on the day of Christ's crucifixion. When stumbling under the weight of the cross, his brow was mopped by St. Veronica and an imprint of his face was left on her cloth.
