E9Please Explain"We don't cheat, we don't lie, we are upfront with the people." Pauline Hanson When Pauline Hanson and her One Nation party stormed back into politics as a major force, it was done on the promise they would be nothing like the "mainstream" political parties they and their supporters loathe. Four Corners reveals the brutal backroom politics ripping into Pauline Hanson's One Nation party. Reporter Caro Meldrum-Hanna investigates the party's inner workings and explores how former supporters have been left disenchanted, asking for Pauline Hanson to "please explain" - Cracking the Code
E10Cracking the Code"What's on your mind?" It's the friendly Facebook question which lets you share what you're thinking and what you've been up to. It's also the question that unlocks the details of your life and helps turn your thoughts into Facebook's profits. Four Corners explores the world of Facebook and how your data is being mined to drive the huge success of the social media giant. Reporter Peter Greste examines the Facebook business model and shows why your private life is making them billions. The program investigates how Facebook has the ability to track much of your browsing history, even when you're not logged on, and even if you aren't a member of the social network at all. - ContaminationE35

This is a very different Hillary Clinton to the managed political performer. Candid, open and at times angry, the former presidential candidate talks about what went wrong and her fears for the future. - What's Wrong With the NBN?E37
What's Wrong With the NBN?From the start, Australia’s National Broadband Network was billed as a game changer that would future proof the nation by delivering super fast internet services. Almost a decade on from those promises, there’s a growing number of angry residential customers and small businesses who are bitterly disappointed with the NBN. On Monday night, as the NBN reaches a milestone, passing the half-way point in its rollout, Four Corners investigates the problems fuelling this dissatisfaction. - Germany's New NazisE38
Germany's New Nazis For the first time since the dark days of Hitler's Nazi Germany, a right-wing nationalist party is centre stage in German politics. Right-wing extremism in Germany has surged to its highest level since the downfall of the Third Reich, with a record number of attacks against asylum seekers and their supporters. This film, from the BBC's Panorama program, charts the rise of one notorious anti-immigrant group which stands accused of a wave of violent attacks. In an exclusive interview, one of the group's ringleaders talks for the first time about his motivations and his actions. - The Paradise Papers
