September programming highlights for Discovery World HD include:
NEW SERIES:
SHORE LINE
Tuesdays at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT, beginning September 13
Explore nearly 3000 kilometres of the South African coastline with SHORE LINE. This 13-part series focuses on the natural history and ancient archaeology of the region, building an evolving picture of the South African coastline.
NEW SPECIALS:
Sat., September 3 at 8 p.m. ET/9 p.m. PT
In April 2008 ex-soldier and explorer Ed Stafford and friend Luke Collyer decided to take on a monumental challenge – to trace on foot the whole length of the Amazon, from Southern Peru to its mouth on the Brazilian coast. They believed it would take them one year and would involve walking 6,000 kilometres. In the end, two-and-a-half years and almost 10,000 kilometres later, only Stafford would complete the journey. Using Stafford’s own footage, this 120-minute special is a vivid portrait of a man driven to the edge of his own sanity.
RETURNING SERIES:
WHAT’S MY CAR WORTH
Mondays at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT beginning September 5
WHAT’S MY CAR WORTH returns with stories of Monte Carlo and Supersonic rides. Join car expert Keith Martin in this eight-part series as he explores the world of collector cars and tells you exactly what they’re worth. Some will tear up others will scream with excitement as their cars change hands and become part of the collector car market.
Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET/10 p.m. PT beginning September 7
For the New England fishermen on SWORDS: LIFE ON THE LINE, braving the frigid, unpredictable waters of the North Atlantic is a tradition that has been in their families for generations. This 10-part series returns to the unforgiving environment, where 45-foot vessels contend with 50-foot waves and gale-force winds, where one fish can earn you $50,000, and one mistake can cost you your life.
Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/10 p.m. PT beginning September 19
Hosted by Morgan Freeman, THROUGH THE WORMHOLE explores the deepest mysteries of existence – the questions that have puzzled mankind for eternity. What are we made of? What was there before the beginning? Are we really alone? Is there a creator? This 10-part series brings together the brightest minds and best ideas from the very edges of science – Astrophysics, Astrobiology, Quantum Mechanics, String Theory, and more – to reveal the extraordinary truth of our Universe.
