Shark Beach with Anthony Mackie: Gulf Coast

TX Time: 18h00
Genre: Documentary, Wildlife, Sharkfest
Anthony Mackie (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) features in this marquee special, the next installment of the Shark Beach franchise.
This special follows Mackie in his hometown of New Orleans, where he grew up boating and fishing, and still fishes its waters to this day.
In this hour-long special, Mackie investigates a fishing phenomenon called depredation, in which a shark preys upon a fisherman's catch and consumes it before it can be retrieved.
Across the globe, more and more fishermen are encountering this competition for food, bringing humans and sharks in closer proximity than ever before.
After an increase in shark sightings in his hometown, Mackie sets out to learn more about these cases from the local Louisiana fishing communities affected as well as specialist scientists.
He discovers how these human-shark encounters may be pointing to larger environmental issues on the shores of Louisiana and through the Gulf of Mexico.
Invasion: The Normans
Channel: HISTORY (DStv 186)
TX Time: 19h25
Genre: Documentary Series, History, Docu-Drama
850 years ago, the Normans were one of the world's most powerful military forces, dominating Britain, France and Sicily.
Over two episodes we will explore the 12th Century Norman invasion of Ireland.
Generally considered English or Welsh, the Normans were in fact as much French as British.
In 1166 Ireland is torn apart by war between rival kings.
When two of these power players drive a rival into exile, he seeks help from Henry II and the Anglo-Norman lords of Britain.
Narrated by Michael McElhatton (Game of Thrones), the series combines location footage, atmospheric drama re-enactments, and vivid modern-day sequences.
Boasting a fascinating cast of characters, including the powerful Norman king Henry II; the opportunistic Norman lord Strongbow; the ruthless Irish king Diarmait; and his ambitious daughter Aoife, who became Strongbow's wife, this docu-drama tells one of history's most epic stories.
It's a real-life Game of Thrones that changed the history of Europe forever.
