Who Sank the Bismarck?National Geographic, 8.30pmA captivating documentary about the battle that sunk the German warship Bismarck in May 1941. CGI animation is used to good effect as survivors of both sides tell of their fear and resolve during a battle that saw thousands of men killed. The question in the title is whether the Bismarck sank as a direct result of the damage the British navy inflicted on the crippled vessel or whether the German crew managed to scuttle it.Selling Houses Australia ExtremeLifeStyle, 8.30pmAndrew Winter has found himself a doozy of a property up in Port Douglas - an old community centre that middle-aged Jack and Diana bought in the hope of turning into two units: one for their children to live in and another to rent to tourists. While the kids' unit has been partially completed, the other one is an empty shell without so much as plaster on the walls. Naturally, Winter gets landscape designer Charlie Albone and interior designer Shaynna Blaze-Vaughan to do all the hard work while he skives off to eat ice-cream, feed crocodiles and sip cocktails by the pool.Ace of CakesLifeStyle Food, 8.30pmIs there a reality show Kate Gosselin hasn't been on? First it was American Chopper, then Dancing with the Stars, then Sarah Palin's Alaska ... Anyway, Gosselin and her brood go to pick up Kate's birthday cake so the kids can have a go at decorating cakes of their own. Non Gosselin-related segments follow.
