Season Three examines the gunfight at the OK Corral and the St Valentine's Day Massacre, the fine line between fact and fiction that was blurred by the publication of The Hitler Diaries and Orson Welles' radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds, and popular uprisings with the flight of the last Iranian Shah, Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, and the execution of former Romanian president Ceausescu.
Through dramatic reconstruction, eyewitness accounts, and archive footage, each episode pieces together the stories of the moments in history - human tragedies, scientific breakthroughs, and calamitous events that have profoundly affected the world.
