1. Realm of the SerpentThere are more than 3000 species of snakes, and each one seems to scare man inordinately. For this rare, up-close look at the mysterious reptile, wildlife cinematographers traveled to the far corners of the earth to capture the serpent in its varied roles in the wild and in relation to men. Witness Burmese cobra charmers, the birth of a green tree python in the rain forest, the tagging of a deadly fer-de-lance in Central America and a Texas rattlesnake round up. It’s an exotic adventure that will bring new insight into the kingdom of the snake. As seen on ABC. Narrated by E.G. Marshall.CC45minJan 1, 1992
11. The Last African Flying BoatIn the late 1930′s, the Empire flying boats of Imperial Airways linked the British colonies of East Africa from Egypt to South Africa. They carried passengers in country-club comfort on a five-day journey featuring luxury accommodations and five-star service. A half-century later, journalist Alexander Frater, producer/director David Wallace and a camera crew made a harrowing attempt to recreate the trek over present-day Africa – across what had become five independent states and two war zones. Through remarkable vintage footage of the original flights and the fascinating film of the modern-day trip, you’ll enjoy a rare glimpse of a bygone era and an inside look at the new Africa, a continent of diversity, strife and transition. As seen on ABC. Narrated by Roy Scheider.CC47minJul 11, 1993
