Lynda Carter
UK Prem at 6pm
The 'Wonder Woman' TV series made Lynda Carter a household name, but few know that before she became a star, she was already a lounge singer and a beauty queen. With interviews with family and co-stars such as Loni Anderson and Kenny Rogers, we uncover the real Lynda Carter.

Christopher Reeve
UK Prem at 9pm
In his movie role as Superman, Christopher Reeve was all-powerful. But in 1995 he faced his greatest test ever when he was paralysed from the neck down in an equestrian accident. Interviewed are stars such as Treat Williams, Margot Kidder, and William Hurt.

Hugh Jackman
UK Prem at 10pm
The X-Men films not only made Jackman a superstar, they gave him a new career direction. We look at the arc of his career, and at the choices he has made, like turning down the lead in Chicago because he felt he was too young!
