Iconic sci-fi captain William Shatner (he played James T Kirk in the ’60s Star Trek TV series and movies) is back on South African screens Friday nights on History (*186) at 21:05 with his paranormal documentary series The UnXplained With William Shatner (2019-now). He’s investigating anything and everything mysterious, from werewolves to Japan’s infamous Suicide Forest, hoping to explain the phenomena and what’s behind it.
“The UnXplained deals, obviously, with things that have no explanation. And to go on a bit, we’re surrounded by mystery. You know, life after death being the big one, what started the universe and that kind of thing. Those are the big mysteries,” muses William. “One of the episodes is about premonition. What is premonition? How do people know what might happen in the future? When 9/11 (the terrorist attacks on the US in September 2001) took place? That is the most dramatic example that we could think of when people had a premonition of planes flying into buildings. What’s the explanation behind that?”
