The first black Britons

This is the dramatic story of the West India Regiment, a regiment of slaves created to defend the interests of the British Empire at the end of the 18th century. In return for their fierce loyalty, soldiers were rewarded with the status of being the first black Britons. This film tells their story from establishment to dissolution, bringing the slave trade to life in this anniversary year.

The Knights Templar

This is the definitive history of the Knights Templar, an order of warrior knights established after the first crusade to ensure the safety of European pilgrims travelling to Jerusalem. Many myths persist about the order, including those linking them with the Holy Grail, the Shroud of Turin and the Freemasons, but the truth is almost as impressive – they were one the best fighting units of their age, set up the first bank and were perhaps the world’s first multinational corporation.
