Nice to see you. This week, a British legend that refuses to die; A "Man-Monkey" on a lonely canal has evolved into something far more tangible and terrifying. We discus a history of animal killings and a high-level cover-up at a grand stately home, where staff were warned to keep quiet about the "hairy man-beast" stalking the grounds.

We then track a recent wave of terrifying encounters, from an upright, sprinting wolf-like creature that haunted a retired couple in Cannock Chase, to a "massive monkey thing" seen running on all fours through a Cambridge suburb. The investigation culminates in the most disturbing story of all: the mysterious 2022 death of a man in a remote wood, found with unexplained injuries after a case that was immediately sealed by an official wall of silence.

From a 150-year-old phantom to a modern-day predator, we piece together the evidence and ask what is really haunting the British countryside. And Bruce Forsyth.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
