Mumbai Massacre (#903) Duration: 54:47 CC Stereo DVI TV14

On November 26, 2008, what began as a typical day in a buzzing cosmopolitan city devolved into a nightmare of explosions, gunfire and death when terrorists attacked. The world watched in horror as the escalating violence was broadcast live across the globe. But within the walls of the besieged hotels, a social networking revolution was taking place. Even as the terrorists watched CNN to find out where their victims were hiding, the prisoners were texting with terrorism experts, passing information to specially set up user-groups, and even searching the web for plans of the buildings to coordinate their escapes. Told completely from the victims' perspective using their own words, voicemails, texts, and user-group postings, this episode places viewers inside the deadly cat and mouse game as it played out.

Irish Escape (#605) Duration: 56:46 CC Stereo DVI TVPG

The voyage of the Catalpa is the extraordinary dramatic story of a covert rescue mission hatched in New Bedford, Massachusetts to facilitate the escape of six Irish political prisoners from a notorious penal colony in Fremantle, Western Australia. At the centre of this daring rescue is an unlikely hero -- a non partisan Quaker by the name of George Smith Anthony, who as captain of the Catalpa risked his life and liberty to bring these Irish rebels back to freedom in the United States.
