The action centres on the small rural town of Dillon, Texas, where the coveted state football championships are held in the highest regard.

The episodes are: 'East of Dillon', 'After the Fall', 'In the Skin of a Lion', 'A Sort of Homecoming', 'The Son', 'Stay', 'In the Bag', 'Toilet Bowl', 'The Lights in Carroll Park', 'I Can't', 'Injury List', 'Labouring' and 'Thanksgiving'.

Sidney Lumet's 1973 crime drama Serpico remains one of the most influential cop movies - alongside Al Pacino's nuanced performance in a disturbing portrait of corruption and morality in the city that never sleeps. A plainclothes street patrolman, Frank Serpico (Pacino) might be the best cop in New York, but he is unwilling to play dirty and give into police corruption of drugs, violence, and kickbacks his colleagues indulge in every day. When he decides to expose those around him, Frank finds himself a target, not just to the city's criminals, but his own peers. Shot on location and based on real events, Serpico captures the grit of New York in a way no film has rivalled, not just for its toned down realism, but also the bleakness Lumet portrays within his hometown city with brutal cynicism with frank immediacy.
This classic confrontation between good and evil stars Kevin Costner as federal agent Eliot Ness, Robert De Niro as gangland kingpin Al Capone and Sean Connery as Malone, the cop who teaches Ness how to beat the mob: shoot fast and shoot first.

However, the ambitious dancer is kicked off the team for showing off during a preliminary competition. Now, if Raya has any hope of realising her dreams, she will have to regain Bishop's trust.

Oliver Stone's detailed examination of possible answers to unsolved mysteries surrounding John F. Kennedy's assassination.

Stone weaves actual archive footage with historical reconstruction and conjecture to present his argument that Kennedy was killed by the CIA due to his desire to withdraw troops from Vietnam. The film gained several Oscar nominations and Stone won a Golden Globe award for Best Director.

In the spring of 1987, an undeniable front runner emerged in the race for the Democratic Party’s Presidential nomination: Colorado Senator Gary Hart – whose smarts and charismatic idealism seemed all but destined for the White House and the making of a new chapter in American history. By April, Hart had opened up a gaping lead in the polls. Three weeks later, in a spectacularly public fall from grace, he was out of the race and Presidential politics forever. Drawn from Matt Bai’s book, All The Truth Is Out, the film zeroes in on those very last few days in which Hart’s promise and Presidential hopes fell apart.
