what happened to a group of Irish men who immigrated
to America. In 1832, railroad contractor
Philip Duffy hired 57 Irish immigrants to lay railroad
tracks in West Chester, Pennsylvania. Less than
two months after their arrival, all 57 were dead.
Did they all die — as was widely believed — from
cholera? Or were some murdered? In 2003, twin
brothers who discovered a secret file among their
grandfather’s papers investigated the deaths of
these men and found the location of their final resting
place. Using the latest forensic and scientific
investigative techniques, DNA, forensic analysis,
facial reconstruction and historical detective work
in Ireland and the U.S., modern detectives and
experts unravel this extraordinary story.

Broadway or Bust: And the Winner Is…
The show at New York’s Minskoff Theatre is the
final act and crowning highlight of the miniseries.
The 60 finalists prepare for the big day. In just six
hours, the lights will go up, the theater will be filled
and, with the downbeat of the orchestra leader’s
baton, it’ll be show time. Going into the final
competition awards show, all of the judges have a
short list of top contenders, but during the show
itself, they’ll be asked once again to give scores to
the leading performers based on the group performances
and individual medleys. At intermission, the
judges will cut the group to six finalists. Those six
will perform their solos, and after another round, the
judges will choose the two winners. In the words
of director Van Kaplan, “This week … is going to
shape their whole lives, whether they go into the
theater or not.”

Call the Midwife
On Cynthia’s district rounds, she administers daily
insulin to a man who consistently belittles his wife,
Annie. A visit from Annie’s son and support from
Cynthia help Annie gain confidence and start to
change her life. Jenny witnesses persecution of a
different kind when she looks after a black motherto-be
who is subjected to racial prejudice from
neighbors. Funded by the success of the Summer
Fete, Nonnatus House takes ownership of a scooter
to help with rounds. Fred teaches the midwives
to ride — with amusing and unforeseen results.
Everyone is thrilled when Chummy and Peter return
from Sierra Leone with a surprise.
