Cities of the Underworld
Peel back the layers of history with hosts Don Wildman and Eric Geller, as they explore underneath the cities of the world to find the hidden engineering feats and dark histories buried beneath. Travel though a maze of tunnels, hidden water supplies, hideouts, and tombs lost to time.
Ancient Impossible
The show picks up where HISTORY's long running Ancient Discoveries left off. In this next generation of storytelling, Ancient Impossible reveals how many of today's technological achievements were actually developed centuries ago. Colossal monuments, impossible feats of engineering and technologies so precise they defy reinvention-the ancient world was far more advanced than we ever imagined. We'll travel through history to reveal a radically different picture of the past, with innovations so far ahead of their time, they're still in use today. New science uncovers a lost world more like our own than we ever suspected, and reveals how modern technology has its blueprint in the ancient world.

Time Scanners
The show unlocks the secrets of the world's most iconic engineering feats using cutting-edge, 3D laser scanning technology. A team of scientists and historians led by Steve Burrows (engineer for the Beijing Bird's Nest Olympic Stadium), uses the extraordinary scans to create 3D digital models of the Roman Coliseum, the Egyptian Pyramids, the Incas' Machu Picchu, St Paul's in London, Petra and Jerusalem with pin-point accuracy. With this unique tool and insider access, the team can analyse how good the ancient engineers were, make brand new discoveries, and come up with ground breaking new theories about these awe-inspiring places and the people who built them.
