[edit] Information

Tales Of The Unexpected Tales of the Unexpected is an exciting new series of documentaries that shines its light into some of the stranger corners of science.

[edit] Secret Life Of Breasts

New science is revealing breasts in a way that we’ve never seen them before. For years we’ve been seeking perfection: shape, size, and food source for our children. But now some scientists believe they may also be a hidden toxic waste ground. Putting breasts tissue - and breast milk - to the test, this documentary will investigate if these wonderful life-giving organs are under threat from the modern world and if they’re actually an early warning system telling us about the dangers of the chemicals around us.

[edit] Secrets of the Hand

For thousands of years, in fairgrounds and temples, palm readers have claimed our hands encode valuable information. Is this just superstition? Or is there, buried beneath the theatre and the cliches, a core of genuine science? Can our hands really tell us anything about our past, our present or our future? Does the lifeline on your hand reveal the age at which you’ll die? Can your hands detect your sexual preference? For the first time palm reading is put to the test and will debunk the myths that have been passed on for generations. This documentary will also have you looking at your own hands in a new light.

[edit] Who's Your Daddy?

In 1972, a study was conducted in the U.K that claimed 30 percent non-paternity, which means one in three children were not biologically related to the man they call Dad. Could this really be true? This program conducts the first ever purpose designed paternity poll, asking some truly awkward questions. It compares rates of paternity uncertainty in Australia and the United States, and follows parents and children as they discover the truth behind who’s their father.
