Part 4: 1917
(Shou'n on Sunday)
For Henry Lincoln six years have passed since he completed The Priest, the Painter and the Devil. That strange story of an obscure French priest who was led to immense wealth by ancient parchments has drawn Henry Lincoln deep into a mysterious historical underworld. In France, England and Jerusalem, he has unearthed a strange story of secret societies and a medieval ecclesiastical mania which began at the time of the Crusades and which seems to have conceived and reared to maturity the enigmatic Order of Knights Templar.
Henry Lincoln's story is not to be found in the history books. At its heart is the enduring French legend of Le Roi Perdu - The Lost King - and a secret linked with heresy, astrology, alchemy and an esoteric society which has survived in the shadows of history for 1,000 years.

This week: I Call it Murder
The garbage dump of Middle
America '- that's what they call
Chicago's ghetto. It's a vivid and desperate place where the murder rate is far higher than Northern
Ireland's, where half the population is on drugs or alcohol, where the most common fatal complication of pregnancy is gunshot wounds - and where the only free hospital is facing closure. Cuts have already shut down three of America's surviving free hospitals, more are under pressure, now it's the turn of Cook County -
'County' as everyone calls it.
In this filmed report, Jack Pizzey and a Man Alive film team go to the threatened lifeline of tne ghetto and meet the people who are fighting to keep it open, the patients who have already been rejected by other hospitals because of the darkness of the r skins or the thinness of their wallets, and the doctor who says ' I call it murder
