episode/Alexander/Just a reminder for all you good folks that receive this channel in the US or got a dish.
description :: It is 332 BC.- Alexander the Great conquers the Persians and changes the face of warfare. Generations before, the Persian Empire had conquered the Greek colonies throughout Asia Minor, and Persia's power stretched all the way to the Mediterranean.

Thanks, Andrew, for providing time and channel. I appreciate it as it is supposed to be about the movie that Oliver Stone has made, isn't it?

Greetings Jan,I've heard of that one but I'm not so sure if this program is the one your referring to, but I'll keep searching to make sure when and where.

Hi Andrew. I think I can add two more to the list of upcoming programs. A Canadian TV news report on the web shows upcoming fall programs, including those on the Discovery Channel, for which it says: "And to tie into Oliver Stone's new Alexander the Great movie, two specials: Alexander the Great: Murder Unsolved and Becoming Alexander."Now, I figure any "special" shown in Canada to tie in with the movie is also going to be shown in the US. Why on earth would they want to miss that market? Who's betting that the Murder Unsolved program is the same one that was shown in England not too long ago, but with a different title? Best regards,Linda Ann
