Dark Matters: Twisted But True

Image 1 / 10

This month, Discovery HD Showcase examines what happens when scientific research goes too far. Exploring questions some say should not be asked, ‘Dark Matters: Twisted But True' takes viewers inside the laboratory to profile strange science and expose some of history's most bizarre experiments. Combining astonishing virtual sets with dramatic recreations, this ghoulish and fun but factually accurate programme explores the dark and ragged edge of human understanding, where experiments can be ethically controversial and the results can be mind-blowing. From the disturbing 1920s Soviet experiment to cross breed humans with apes, to the Harvard scientist who became obsessed with uncovering the science of zombies; this fascinating new six-part series challenges viewers to ponder the uncomfortable, disturbing or debatable limits of science and knowledge.
