BBC Blackbeard, The Real Pirate Of The Caribbean

This is the true story of Edward Teach, who went on to become the most notorious pirate the world has ever known. Loved by some, hated by many, feared by everyone, his reign of terror along the east coast of America and rash decision to strike at the heart of the government drove the authorities to put an end to piracy once and for all…

Based on the stories of Blackbeard and other pirates who lived at that time, this immersive, beautifully shot drama reconstructs in vivid detail a larger-than-life man and the fascinating historical period in which he lived. A gripping tale of skullduggery, heroism, cunning and revenge!

CHAPTER 1

BBC: Time Machine

Imagine if you could play with time. Where would you go, what would you see? Imagine no longer, Time Machine breaks through the time barrier and takes you on an incredible journey to see the world as you have never seen it before.

As time is crushed from centuries into seconds, we can see the shaping of the planet. Watch the mighty Himalayas and the Grand Canyon form in front of your very eyes and discover the hidden forces that created them. See why crocodiles
became stranded when the Sahara turned to desert; and what mysterious
force shaped the Great Sphinx. The length of our live limits our understanding of time and the way we see our planet, but if we warp time we can begin to reveal what is really going on.

We witness the forces that are tearing our continents apart, and discover the shocking fact that millions of people all over the world are sitting on geological
time bombs.

101 Embarrassing Sexual Accidents

Ancient Rome, it has oft been said, pioneered bizarre sexual proclivities, but even Caligula never thought to slake his notorious carnal desires with a cantaloupe. Besides, he lacked a microwave. After all, it was the application of this 20th-century gadget that proved our fellow countryman’s undoing and ensured his inclusion on 101 Embarrassing Sexual Accidents.

The Scot appeared with his face obscured, in case his identity should reveal that of the melon. His tale began when, fearful his “partner” might be cold and indifferent, he decided to warm it up - not with a massage or foreplay, but by putting the fruit in the microwave. “She” emerged red hot - 180C - a little too hot for our Casanova and the tender “moves” resulted in second degree burns to his, as he put it in eloquent Scots’ slang, “bobby”.

Still, as Grub Smith, the presenter of this horrendous catalogue of freak TV, pointed out, it could have been worse. Our competitor in this sexual Olympics was topped by a New Jersey man who felt his intimate relationship with his vacuum cleaner had grown stale and had decided to liven it up - by forgoing the nozzle in favour of the main machine, unaware that the suction was provided by a metal motor similar to a miniature propeller. The machine, no doubt disturbed by such fresh behaviour, reacted by cutting off more than just their relationship. The result? The man narrowly escaped bleeding to death.

A psychologist was dragged from the set of Big Brother to explain what drove these men to such lengths. His conclusion was simple: the sensation or the illusion of being with someone else. In the interest of health and safety, I direct the male species to the wisdom of another Scot who has never, to my knowledge, attempted to make love to a melon. As Billy Connolly said: “Just sit on your hand until it goes numb.”
