Ten Deadliest Snakes With Nigel Marven

UK PREMIERE – NEW SERIES – TRIPLE BILL

Thursday 19th June, from 9pm
In this action-packed series, wildlife adventurer Nigel Marven visits reptile-rich countries to count down their ten deadliest snakes. While dodging snapping jaws and vicious fangs to come up with his top ten, Nigel joins serpent hunters, venom scientists and snake fanatics, uncovers fascinating facts and behaviours, and meets a supporting cast of other amazing creatures. In the first episode of the series (9pm), Nigel heads to Costa Rica. The South American country has two venomous snakes for every hectare of land, including some of the world’s most feared tropical snakes.

Which of these kings of the jungle will make it to the top of
Nigel’s list? The contenders include the terciopelo, the so-called ‘ultimate pit viper’,
responsible for almost half the bites in the country. Nigel also meets the only rattlesnake in
Latin America, the stunning but deadly cascabel and there’s the world’s largest viper, the 3-
metre bushmaster, which is as long as a family car.

In the second episode (10pm) Nigel heads to the United States of America. The US is the land
of the rattlesnake, with over 30 species of rattler found there. On his journey Nigel comes
face to face with the coral snake; notable for their red, yellow/white, and black coloured
banding and their deadly pair of small fangs.

The final episode (11pm) focusses on South Africa. With almost 2,000 snakebites causing 250
deaths every year, South Africa is a hotspot for deadly snakes, with some of the most feared
serpents in the world. For example the spitting cobra, that has the ability to eject venom
from their fangs when defending themselves against predators.

Michael Caine Career Retrospective

Arguably Britain's most prolific and well loved actor, Michael Caine has appeared in over 150 films in his illustrious and multi-dimensional career. The 81 year old screen legend, born Maurice Micklewhite, is the only actor besides Jack Nicholson to have been nominated for an Oscar in every decade from 1960s-2000s, and there's still time for the 2010s! To celebrate the 50th Anniversary Blu-ray and DVD edition of the film that ignited his career; ZULU on 5th May, we are taking a look back at the Londoner's top ten movie moments to date in chronological order...


ZULU (1964)

Caine's first significant role on the silver screen came as Lt. Gonville Bromhead in this classic BAFTA nominated war feature. Based on the real life events at the Battle of Rorke's Drift in South Africa, 85 years prior to the film's release, Zulu re-enacts the epic stand-off between a group of 150 British soldiers and a 4000 strong army of Zulu warriors. The ultimate David and Goliath tale of bravery and camaraderie, Zulu pays homage to the unbelievable resilience, and ultimate victory of the Welsh regiment. This breakout role saw Michael 'playing posh' alongside Stanley Baker, Jack Hawkins and James Booth.


THE IPCRESS FILE (1965)

Caine truly cemented his Hollywood status as MI5 operative and anti-Bond Harry Palmer in this thrilling novel adaptation. He plays an army sergeant transferred to British intelligence, to help solve the "brain drain" of seventeen top scientists, who've been kidnapped and returned with their knowledge of technical matters gone. Espionage drama obviously suited our protagonist, as he went on to revive the character in two sequel films 'Funeral in Berlin' and 'The Billion Dollar Brain', making this his first franchise appearance.


ALFIE (1966)

The eponymous, heartless, fourth-wall breaking Alfie Elkins dominated the swinging sixties in London. Racking up an impressive ten sexual conquests, Caine's perfectly crafted cockney lothario is a force to be reckoned with. Arguably his most unlikeable character, fans and critics alike could not dispute the magnitude of this singular performance. Joined by a host of top notch actresses including Shelley Winters, Millicent Marti, Julia Foster and Jane Asher, the man everyone loves to hate and hates to love was too good to leave behind, being reborn in the image of Jude Law in 2004.


THE ITALIAN JOB (1969)

Nominated for a Golden Globe, this iconic crime caper sees Caine shine as Charlie Croker, the leader of a team of con artists on a gold-bullion under cover of an England football international. Famous for its exhilarating car chase scene with the mini coopers racing across the rooftops in Turin, this cult heist movie has become a cinematic staple, lending itself to a glossy remake in 2003 starring Mark Wahlberg.


GET CARTER (1971)

One of his most violent roles to date, Mike Hodges' dark revenge thriller launched Caine to a new level of leading man. When his brother dies under mysterious circumstances in a car accident, London gangster Jack Carter travels to Newcastle to investigate. A cockney Angel of Death, Carter sets out to track down the man responsible, discovering all kinds of corruption, betrayal and insidious acts in the process. Keep an eye out for a cheeky cameo in Stallone's 2000 remake.


SLEUTH (1972)

This excellent cat-and-mouse mystery pits Caine against the mighty Sir Laurence Olivier. Caine plays Milo Tindle, a self-made successful hairdresser who is sleeping with the wife of the knighted and wealthy crime fiction writer Andrew Wyke. This high-stakes drama sees an impressive battle of wits ensure in potentially deadly series of games that earned both actors an Oscar nod. In an interesting twist, Caine swapped roles for the modern remake, going head to head with golden boy Jude Law.


THE MAN WHO WOULD BE KING (1975)

Based on a Rudyard Kipling short story, Sean Connery stars alongside Caine in this action adventure, which followers two former British soldiers in India. Peachy Carnehan and Daniel Dravot decide to resign from the Army and set themselves up as deities in Kafiristan--a land where no white man has set foot since Alexander. Though the two powerhouse actors have undeniable chemistry, the real relationship in this epic is with Caine's real life wife Shakira, who plays his love interest, Roxanne.


EDUCATING RITA (1983)

Dr Frank Bryant is a run-down, alcoholic English Professor whose life is suddenly invigorated when a spirited new student enters his classroom. Julie Walters is the gloriously outspoken hairdresser and housewife, who decides to complete her education via an Open University programme. As each begins to wake up to life in their own way, the story comes to a close as an inspiring tale of self discovery and of the power of choice that comes through education. Based on Willy Russell's popular play, this powerful performance earned Caine his first Golden Globe win for Best Actor the following year.


DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS (1988)

Michael Caine and funny man Steve Martin excel in this laugh-out-loud comedy about two competing conmen in the South of France. Wined and dined by tourists, the two wily gentlemen plan to settle their rivalry by betting on who can swindle a young American heiress out of $50.000 first. This is without doubt Caine's finest comedic performance, a particular highlight are the scenes where he is posing as Martin's idiot brother, Ruprecht.


THE DARK KNIGHT (2008)

The second in Christopher Nolan's mind-blowingly popular trilogy sees Michael reprise his role as loyal butler and Wayne family confident; Alfred. This instalment is the only film in the trilogy to win an Oscar along with a whopping 69 other nominations. The film's success owes in no small part to Heath Ledgers haunting turn as The Joker. Caine's performance in these blockbuster re-boots may have come in the later part of his career, but has served to solidify his place in film lover's collective consciousness for generations to come.

Zulu 50th Anniversary edition is released on Blu-ray and DVD on 5th May, from Paramount Home Media Distribution.
