Zac is delirious with joy. All his dreams have come true because Henry Mallet - the real, living, breathing, 60 year old Henry Mallet - just knocked on his door. He's not dead! He's been living incognito in Geneva for the last thirty years, eating cheese and breeding schnauzers. Zac may be in seventh heaven, but Suzy is seriously confused. And a little worried - is this the real Henry Mallet, or a fraud? And if this old man is the real Henry Mallet, then who or what is her Henry?

19:30 Goldman Sachs: Masters of the World?
Did Goldman Sachs use insider information to profit from the financial crisis? How did a brokerage house, founded in 1869 by a German immigrant, become one of the biggest, most powerful banks in the world? The embattled bank, which is facing a range of legal claims for its conduct during the financial crisis, has already been criticised by a Senate Panel for misleading investors and Congress. Critics also accusing it of masking the scale of Greece's debt in obscure trade derivatives and not disclosing bond swaps. This investigation reveals how the company first became aware of the looming financial crisis in 2006. Instead of warning investors, it used this valuable information to boost its profits. Speaking to bankers, senators and economists, we scrutinize Goldman Sach's role in the financial crisis and ask where the blame really lies.

Over three episodes this history series charts the early years of Australia's immigration policy from 1901 to the 1950's. In part three we see that despite causing widespread criticism overseas, in the 1950s under the Menzies government, Australia's whites only immigration policy seemed as popular as ever. Indeed the rise of Communism in the region added extra justification to the need to prevent Asians entering the country at that time in history.
