Aurelio Zen (Rufus Sewell) brings<br />
justice to modern-day Italy, whether<br />
the authorities want it or not. These<br />

Zen – Vendetta A killer is on<br />
a vendetta-fuelled rampage<br />
against those who wrongly<br />
imprisoned him, including a<br />
cop who had almost nothing<br />
to do with it: Aurelio Zen. Can<br />

staying alive, investigating a<br />
politically-charged murder and<br />
courting his new officemate<br />
at the same time?<br />

of Justice wants a ruling of<br />
suicide, while a powerful – and<br />
beautiful – prosecutor hints<br />
that Zen had better start<br />
looking for the murderer.<br />

8:00 Queen Victoria’s Empire:<br />
The Moral Crusade/The<br />
Scramble for Africa (Parts 3<br />
and 4 of 4) By 1861, Britain<br />
is the wealthiest and most<br />
powerful nation on earth.<br />
However, the death of Prince<br />
Albert weakens Victoria, and<br />
many of his political ideals<br />
fade in importance. David<br />
Livingstone’s explorations of<br />
the African interior fascinate<br />
the British public. Disraeli and<br />
Gladstone battle for control<br />
of the British government<br />
and debate the course of<br />
empire. The purchase of the<br />
Suez Canal solidifies British<br />
presence in the Middle East,<br />
igniting a stampede for the<br />
colonization of Africa. When<br />
the Canal is threatened by<br />
a holy war in the Sudan,<br />
General Charles Gordon,<br />
killed by the rebels, becomes<br />
an “imperial martyr.” Cecil<br />
Rhodes prospects diamond<br />
deposits in southern Africa<br />
and asserts British control<br />
in the region. However, as<br />
Victoria celebrates her<br />
Diamond Jubilee, the empire<br />
is on the verge of its darkest<br />
hours. The Boer War leads to<br />
devastating losses and a reassessment<br />
of British purpose.<br />
Finally, in 1901, the death<br />
of Queen Victoria marks the<br />
end of an extraordinary era.<br />

Bad Blood chronicles how<br />

hemophilia became an<br />
agent of death for 10,000<br />
Americans. Faced with<br />
evidence that pharmaceutical<br />
companies and government<br />
regulators knew the product<br />
was contaminated with HIV<br />
and hepatitis from the 1960s<br />
through the early 1990s,<br />
they launched a powerful<br />
and inspiring fight to right<br />
the system that failed them<br />
and to make it safer for all.<br />
