NEW DRAMA Genius: MLK/X Sat, 9pm & 9.55pm, National Geographic
Following the fascinating life stories of Albert Einstein, Pablo Picasso and Aretha Franklin, it's the turn of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X to receive the Genius treatment this week in a new eight-part run.
The US civil-rights leaders met only once, briefly, but their parallel stories are told in tandem as they each battle racial injustice in 1960s America, serve time in prison and meet a tragic death.
