Islands of Australia THURSDAYS AT 8 PM, BEGINS MAY 31 Repeats Saturdays at 5 pm It would take a lifetime to visit the more than 8,000 islands that ring the continent of Australia, so Martin Clunes, the star of Doc Martin, instead takes us to 16 of the best. On his island-hopping adventure he’ll visit pristine palm-fringed paradises, stride along kelp-strewn beaches and dive into turquoise waters, coming face-to-face with sea turtles, whale sharks and other colourful creatures. Travelling to islands near and far from Australia’s coast, he’ll experi- ence ancient Aboriginal customs that are still very much alive, and discover a confluence of cultural influences that give each of the islands its unique vibe. He’ll hear stories of mutineers, shipwrecks and the early convicts whose arrival changed the face of Australia forever. And he’ll meet all sorts of inhabitants – from pearl divers and a modern-day Robinson Crusoe to tiger snakes and Tasmanian devils – while learning about the diversity and challenges of island life.
4 MAY/JUNE 2018 K: MAGAZINE 5 Oak Tree Nature’s Greatest Survivor TUESDAYS AT 8 PM, BEGINS MAY 29 If entomologist George McGavin is right, you’ll never look at an oak tree the same again. Filmed over a year, this two-part series uncovers the transformations that a 400-year-old oak tree goes through to meet the challenges that each season brings. McGavin gets right in there, digging around the tree’s roots to see how it extracts resources from the soil, shooting lasers at it to count the number of leaves (700,000) and even sleeping in its branches – just because it’s something he’s always wanted to do. McGavin also travels farther afield to explore how the super-strong wood from this iconic species is used, from its historic role in shipbuilding and architecture, to the flavours it imparts to oak-aged whisky.

Arctic Secrets TUESDAYS AT 7 PM, BEGINS MAY 8 Repeats Wednesdays at 6 pm, 11 pm and Sundays at 1 pm Take a journey to Canada’s far north: a land of remote, mostly uninhabited wilderness, including the world’s largest island to have a population of zero. Narrated by broadcaster Shelagh Rogers, this five-part series shows us icebergs calving and the vast frozen tundra, but there are also less familiar scenes, like a carpet of flowers blooming during the brief Arctic summer. Travelling through the seasons, we’ll discover Inuit traditions and encounter animals such as musk oxen, caribou, bowhead whales and the iconic polar bear.
6 MAY/JUNE 2018 K: MAGAZINE 7 “You should know that every word I ever wrote has been a rehearsal for the now that is finally upon us.”
Shut Up and Say Something TUESDAY, MAY 29 AT 9 PM Repeats at midnight Few spoken word poets gain widespread fame. Shane Koyczan is one of the few, awing the world with his breathtaking performance at the Vancouver 2010 Opening Ceremony, bringing audiences to their feet at TED Talks and on tour, and going viral with his powerful anti- bullying poem “To This Day”. His poetry is visceral and honest; rhythmic high-speed verse that mines the dark matter found deep in the soul and lays bare a tender humanity. Yet as exposed as he is on the stage, Shane finds it hard to truly connect with other people – the outcome of a troubled family life, severe bullying and depression: experiences that he draws upon again and again in his work. Shut Up and Say Something follows the BC-based artist on a per- sonal journey as he attempts to forge a relationship with the father who abandoned him long ago. The experience is both painful and cathartic, and Shane deals with the difficult emotions in the only way he knows – with his words.
K: MAGAZINE 9 The Only Son TUESDAY, MAY 8 AT 9 PM Repeats at midnight Pema’s parents want him to marry a girl from home and carry on the trad- itional Tibetan ways. But Pema, who along with all but one of his sisters was sent to a Kathmandu orphanage when his parents couldn’t care for them, wants to study abroad and live a modern life. The pressure is enormous. Pema enlists the help of his siblings, and together they make the trek through the magnificent peaks of the Himalayas to their native village. The local bride is waiting, but will Pema obey his parents?

Co-directed by Martin Scorsese, this paean to the magazine and its esteemed co-founding editor, Robert B. Silvers, who passed away in 2017 after the film was made, features archival footage, interviews and writers reading from their Review essays.

There have long been theories that Vermeer experiences – they are standing up and demanding used mirrors and lenses to create his luminous, eerily realistic paintings; that the truth be told, so that this horrific chapter of Jenison puts those theories to the test in this film by magic duo Penn & Teller. history will never be forgotten. His shocking results could change the history of art forever.

In this film by Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers, members of the Musqueam First Nation share their deeply rooted knowledge of their vast ancestral territory, which was never ceded by treaty, and create an evocative portrait of the region before it was paved with concrete and glass towers. The film also documents a watershed moment in 2012, when the Musqueam and their supporters halted construction of a condo development at the site of an ancient village known as cəsna əm.

As Jenny and the other midwives minister to the expectant mothers, among them a woman on her 25th pregnancy and a 15-year-old prostitute, they’ll have to use all their training, common sense and compassion to help their patients, while navigating unexpected bumps in their own personal lives.

16 MAY/JUNE 2018 The Man Who Shot Tutankhamun MONDAY, JUNE 4 AT 8 PM Repeats Sunday at 5 pm Howard Carter gained fame as the man who discovered King Tutankhamun’s tomb, but it was photographer Harry Burton who introduced its magnificent treasures to the world. Setting up his darkroom in the depths of an ancient tomb, Burton managed to document the excavation and its findings in beautiful detail despite the challenging heat and dust. Margaret Mountford travels to the Valley of the Kings to explore the spectacular locations where Burton worked, and discovers how he pushed the boundaries of photographic art to create his extraordin- ary images.

MONDAYS AT 9 PM, BEGINS MAY 21 Repeats at midnight Could a striking landscape really be a lost masterpiece by John Constable?

And has Gauguin’s first pencil sketch for one of the most expensive paintings ever sold turned up in a quiet suburb of Manchester? Art sleuths Philip Mould and Fiona Bruce team up to discover who’s behind these perplexing works of art. If they’re genuine, they could be worth millions. If frauds, at least there’s a good story to tell!
The Real Doctor Zhivago MONDAY, JUNE 11 AT 9 PM Repeats at midnight Set against the turbulent backdrop of Russia in the early 20th century, Doctor Zhivago is one of the world’s great love stories. But it may also have been the bravest book every written. Author Boris Pasternak faced penury, public denunciation and even death while writing it under Stalin’s rule, yet his deep love for Russia drove him on. Stephen Smith traces the revolutionary roots of the book that would become a beloved Oscar-winning film, and whose own story has more twists and intrigue than many a Hollywood blockbuster.

Gravity and Me The Force That Shapes Our Lives TUESDAYS AT 8 PM, BEGINS MAY 8 What if you could weigh a little bit less, or slow down how fast you age? As professor Jim Al-Khalili demonstrates in this two-part series, we can thank gravity for these effects, however minute they might be. Using Einstein’s discoveries, Jim inves- tigates the link between gravity and time with the help of a smartphone app, and takes us to the place in Britain where, according to the laws of physics, we weigh the least. Looking into the latest scientific breakthroughs, he learns that there are still many mysteries to uncover about gravity’s strange powers.
