Vicarii Productions · In Development

A look into the minds of innovative field officers.
A documentary series examining judgement, temperament and strategic imagination in major twentieth-century battlefield commanders — and asking what made some adaptive and daring, while others proved dangerously flawed.
Benchmarking the leading fighters of WWII.
A comparison of the aircraft that fought for control of the skies in the Second World War — their strengths, weaknesses, combat performance and the industrial pressures that helped shape them.
Napoleon · St Helena
Long before “green” became a political word, Napoleon was thinking about landscape, cultivation and renewal.
His concern had roots in Corsica, where he had seen the effects of poor agricultural management as a young man. Later he enthusiastically encouraged shaded avenues, tree planting and improvements to the countryside and cities of France. St Helena offers a very different way into the man behind the military legend.
