And more often than not, it’s right there in plain sight. If we only knew where to look. In SEARCHING FOR SECRETS, a cast of local guides, bloggers and historians, takes us on an extraordinary journey around some of the world’s most iconic cities…from the eerie catacombs of Paris, to the hustle and bustle of London’s west end. From New York’s iconic Statue of Liberty, to the graffiti covered remains of the Berlin Wall. With the help of intriguing clues and objects, we journey back in time to reveal the secret history of the cities we know and love, and shine new light on the exciting, and often surprising stories that helped shape them.

Inside The Statue Wars

Saloon Media

1 x 60' HD

For some, historical figures are great heroes and nation builders. But for a growing legion of others, they are imperialists, racists, and criminals. INSIDE THE STATUE WARS delves into a fascinating, high stakes battle being waged over public memorials and statues. From Indigenous protestors tearing down a statue of Queen Victoria, to students threatening to walk out of schools named after these historical figures, to civic and business leaders spending millions to re-name streets, brands, and buildings, we are living through a momentous re-evaluation of our past.
