Ernest Hemingway spent much of his life as if permanently on holiday, and this served as a continuous source of inspiration to him. This film documents his travels in Italy. From the world wars to the Italian economic miracle, through friendships with both men and women (and accompanied by a large quantity of good food and wine) and with the landscape as a backdrop; the pleasures and tragedies of life were fundamental fuel for the writer.

The Last Bomb documents one of the 21st Bomber Command’s long distance, low altitude, daylight strikes over Tokyo during the spring and summer of 1945.

Historian Tracy Borman paints the portrait of England’s most famous king and the enablers, the fools, the teachers and the men at arms who knew him best and shaped his outlook on the world. Henry VIII was taught by some of the most famous scholars of his time and developed a reflective and intelligent manner we seldom hear about. As Chief Curator of Britain’s Historic Royal Palaces, Tracey shows us the places where Henry and those who were closest to him lived.
