  • "Horizon presents the story of one of the greatest - and ultimately the most tragic - adventures in the history of human civilisation. For years explorers, archaeologists and adventurers have been bewitched by the exotic Easter Island and its mysterious stone statues."
  • "Looks at the history of Rapanui (Easter Island), tracing the rise and fall of the prehistoric Polynesian civilisation which once inhabited it. Experts contribute."
  • "On Easter Day 1722, Dutch explorers landed on Easter Island. A civilization isolated by 4,000km of Pacific Ocean was about to meet the outside world for the first time in centuries. The strangers were about to find something very strange themselves - an island dotted with hundreds of huge stone statues and a society that was not as primitive as they expected. Where had the Islanders originally come from? Why and how had they built the figures? Modern science is piecing together the story."
