Subterranean homesick blues Watch the story of Churchill’s secret bunker tonight
During WWII, a vast complex of secret bunkers was constructed under the streets of London. Lost to time, it was an important refuge from the nightly onslaught of Nazi air raids, but only now can we reveal the full extent of the scheme. The existence
of Churchill’s Bunker is no secret, but the presence of a subterranean city, built to keep the British government running, is only now being revealed. Very little of this covert network, which also sheltered American General Dwight Eisenhower, has ever been revealed to the public. Now this lost world is brought back to life with cutting-edge computer graphic technology — the tunnels beneath the heart of London’s great buildings; the underground command centre from where the Battle of Britain was coordinated; the deep level, ultra-secure chambers that could withstand the most deadly weapons in the Nazi arsenal. Watch Lost Worlds- Churchill’s Secret Bunkers on May 14 at 10 p.m. on the History channel.
Join Brady Barr on the hunt for the greatest jaw-snapping power on the planet. He checks out the ‘how’ and the ‘why’ of animal death grips, learning the hunting strategy of some of the most powerful predators. Armed with a bite force meter that measures pounds of force, Brady heads into the bushes to measure the might of the predators.
