The Quest for Bannockburn

Folko Boermans

Tony Pollard, Neil Oliver

Neil Oliver and Tony Pollard set out to solve one of the biggest puzzles in battlefield archaeology. 700 years ago, Robert the Bruce's overwhelming victory over the English at the Battle of Bannockburn helped seal Scotland's future as an independent kingdom, although the actual location remains a mystery. With the help of leading battlefield archaeologists, stuntmen, computer-generated graphics and some digging, Neil and Tony go in search of both the real and imagined Battle of Bannockburn.

I Want to Give My Brain to Richard Faull

Folko Boermans

Brently Ford had a life-changing moment 30 years ago when he was given a brain to hold at the Richard Faull's Centre of Brain Research. From then on he made it his mission to make sure his brain is donated to Sir Richard Faull when he passes away. There is only one slight snag; he lives on his own on Waiheke Island.
