Assassins of the Deep
The wreckages of three German U-boats are eroding at the bottom of the sea, along with the stories behind their disastrous fate. They are: UC-66, the only U-boat sunk solely by an Allied airplane in WWI off the Isles of Scilly; U-87, rammed by a British patrol boat in the Irish Sea during WWI; and U-480, sunk by a mine in the English Channel during WWII. (To counter Allied sonar, U-480 was coated with a rubber shield codenamed Alberich.) Now, a team of maritime archaeologists race to locate the submarines and solve the mystery behind their deadly demise.

Cops
COPS follows police officers, constables, and sheriff's deputies during patrols and various police activities by embedding camera crews with their units. The show's formula adheres to a classic cinéma vérité ethos. With no narration or scripted dialog, it depends entirely on the commentary of the officers and on the actions of the people with whom they come into contact.

Have I Got News for You
Based on the week's news, Have I Got News for You is fronted by guest hosts and features two regular team captains, Paul Merton and Ian Hislop. Each week the show invites two guests to cast a jaundiced eye over the week's news, resulting in a fast flow of anarchic, spontaneous and hugely entertaining wit and humour. Guests typically represent the world of politics, comedy, show-business and journalism, and are often themselves particularly newsworthy participants. The final touches of Have I Got News for You are put together only hours before recording, allowing guests to comment on the late-breaking news stories of the day.
