Season 3

Aussie Gold Hunters returns for its biggest season yet, following five crews of gold-hungry prospectors who are taking the gamble of a lifetime as they battle to strike it big in one of the harshest environments on the planet; the wild west of outback Australia.

Here the stakes are high. With no regular income these teams must find gold in order to survive financially. And with 1600 new Prospecting Licences issued this season, the competition is at an all time high.

Back in the game is a new look Dirt Dogs led by Top Dog, Vernon Strange who sets a massive $1 million target; Aussie battlers the Gold Gypsies (Christine and Greg Clark) who are facing a do or die season; family team Ted and Lecky Mahoney and their new recruit, 21-year-old daughter Tyler who is switching the catwalks of Melbourne for the goldfields; along with solo prospector, Rick Fishers who is heading deeper into the outback to hopefully uncover a fortune. There are some new faces too, with the introduction of The Scrappers led by Cornwall born and raised Alex Stead who became entranced with gold as a child and has spent the last decade venturing from the UK to Western Australia to prospect.

As the machines roar and the gold tallies soar, Aussie Gold Hunters takes you deep into the remarkable world of gold mining in Western Australia, revealing its historic towns and the legends that truly make it the wild frontier. Pushing harder, further and risking more than ever before to uncover a life-changing strike, it's go time on the goldfields.

Good Omens

According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.

So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except Aziraphale, a somewhat fussy angel, and Crowley, a fast-living demon--both of whom have lived among Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle--are not actually looking forward to the coming war.

And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist...

King and Conqueror

King and Conqueror is the story of a clash that defined the future of a country – and a continent – for a thousand years, the roots of which stretch back decades and extend out through a pair of interconnected family dynasties, struggling for power across two countries and a raging sea. Harold of Wessex and William of Normandy were two men destined to meet at the Battle of Hastings in 1066; two allies with no design on the British throne, who found themselves forced by circumstance and personal obsession into a war for possession of its crown.
