- This should be essential viewing for all 9/11 conspiracy theorists. It examines all the conspiracies circulating on the Internet and elsewhere, and neatly demolishes them with the truth. With original source material rather than distortions and mis-quotes, and with interviews with people who were there. It also explains why so many people feel the need to believe these conspiracy theories; their government has already lied to them so often, why shouldn't they believe they'd been lied to again? The most telling comments were the ones that describe conspiracy theorists as people who just can't believe that such an act could be done by a few dedicated people. If that's possible, then nothing is safe. So they believe the conspiracy. In fact they are right to be concerned. Nothing is safe. But this was an act committed by a few dedicated people.
- An investigation whether the Oklahoma City bombing was the work of lone bomber Timothy McVeigh, or whether there were others involved who are being protected in a government cover-up.
- The multi-billionaire George Soros awakens strong emotions in an increasingly polarized world. The 89-year-old Hungarian is known for his generous donations and his commitment to openness and democracy.
- The Conspiracy Files delves into the final mystery of 9/11: a third tower at the World Trade Centre, which along with the Twin Towers, also collapsed that day. But this skyscraper was never hit by an aeroplane. The 47-storey tower collapsed seven hours after the Twin Towers and it has become the subject of heated speculation and a host of conspiracy theories suggesting it was brought down by a controlled demolition. Nearly seven years on, the eagerly awaited final official report on the World Trade Centre is due to be published in July 2008. Official investigators are expected to conclude that fire caused the collapse of this third tower at the World Trade Centre, but that would make this the first and only skyscraper in the world to collapse solely due to fire. The Conspiracy Files explores the many unanswered questions to try to find out what really happened and why some people think there was a sinister plot to destroy the building.
- Nearly four years after the 7/7 bombings, England's worst terrorist atrocity, The Conspiracy Files investigates the conspiracy theories flourishing on the internet. There have been three official reports into the bombings on 7th July, which claimed the lives of 52 people along with the four people identified as the bombers, and injured 784 others. The programme sees how conspiracy theories suggest four British Muslims were framed by the government, play on the fears of the Muslim community and spread a highly divisive and damaging message. The Conspiracy Files: 7/7 examines the evidence in an attempt to separate fact from fiction.
- When Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 was shot down over Ukraine, killing all 298 passengers and crew, a storm of conspiracy theories was unleashed across social media. While the official inquiries have pointed the finger of blame at separatist fighters and their Russian backers, a host of different theories claim the Ukrainian government, and even the CIA, were to blame. With revealing eyewitness testimonies, satellite photographs, wire taps, clandestine videos and expert evidence, Conspiracy Files tries to sort the fact from the fiction. In a world where the information war fought online can be just as significant as battles on the ground, this film also analyses the role of the Kremlin in the search for the truth about who shot down MH17.
- A decade after the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, the Conspiracy Files looks at why some people still question what really happened on 9/11. Conspiracy theories continue to evolve and now question every aspect of the official account. Why, they ask, was the hole in the Pentagon so small? Why did the World Trade Centre buildings collapse as if being demolished by explosives? Why did one skyscraper fall when it was never hit by a plane? And why was the world's greatest military power so unprepared and so slow to react when warnings had been received? The death of Osama Bin Laden might have been expected to put an end to the conspiracy theories, but the failure to release any pictures of Bin Laden's death and the hasty disposal of his body in the Arabian Sea, has instead given these theories a new burst of life. Featuring key witnesses, CIA and FBI interviewees and leading sceptics, the programme analyses the evidence and looks at what makes conspiracy theories so persistent and so powerful.
- An investigation into how Donald Trump has used conspiracy theories to further his bid for the presidency. If Donald Trump loses his battle to become president, it is already clear that he will blame a conspiracy between the media and the political establishment to rig the election. And it won't be the first time that Donald has pushed conspiracy theories to advance his political career. The latest episode of Conspiracy Files investigates how Trump championed the notorious 'birther' conspiracy - which aimed to prove that America's first black president wasn't eligible to serve, and that his birth certificate was false. It is a claim that was believed by up to 60% of Trump voters - even though Trump has now finally disowned it. To help defeat Ted Cruz during the Republican nomination race, Trump stirred stories about links between Cruz's father and America's most famous conspiracy, the assassination of JFK. And as Trump battles Hilary Clinton, he is focusing relentlessly on allegations that the Clintons have conspired to cover up crimes throughout their political careers. Conspiracy Files probes the murky world of US politics, which, since Watergate, has been fertile breeding ground for increasingly complex conspiracy theories.

- Investigating the crash of Pan Am flight 103 at Lockerbie in December 1988 which left 270 people dead and became Britain's worst terrorist attack. After a massive police and FBI investigation a Libyan intelligence officer was found guilty of mass murder, but he has now been granted a second appeal against his conviction. Twenty years on, will the full story of Pan Am flight 103 finally emerge? The Conspiracy Files follows the trail of evidence from the Middle East, through Europe and on to North America, investigating the tangled web of claims and counter-claims surrounding the Lockerbie bombing.
- Examining what has happened to the world's most wanted man, Osama Bin Laden. Despite one of the biggest manhunts in history, Osama Bin Laden remains as elusive as ever.
