Oscar Pistorius - The Interview | The Vault

Oscar Pistorius - The Interview: From Paralympian to pariah, Oscar Pistorius is now a shamed figure. On July 6 he will be sentenced for murdering his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp. He shot her at his home in South Africa on Valentine's Day 2013 and then concocted a convoluted story about mistaking her for an intruder hiding in the bathroom. The courts didn't accept his defence, and he is now facing at least 15 years in prison for the crime. As he waits to hear his fate he has decided to tell his story publicly for the first time. The interview, with British reporter Mark Williams-Thomas, is a macabre and at times graphic insight into the night Reeva was killed. Pistorius explains in excruciating detail his recollection of what happened, and its aftermath. The Blade Runner is both defiant and tearful, but the big question is whether his performance will influence public opinion. Pistorius didn't seek the court's permission for the interview, and by doing it he has further outraged Reeva Steenkamp's grieving family.

The Vault: Imagine for a moment if a comet strikes the earth, or a super volcano erupts, blacking out the sun for years. Or worse still, there's a nuclear war. Only a small number of human beings would survive and they – or hopefully we – would have to be incredibly well prepared for the future. But just how would we restart our lives when the sun shines again? Where would we get the seeds to grow the crops to feed ourselves? Luckily, scientists have been imagining the unimaginable and have built an incredible facility, hidden deep in the remote mountains of the Arctic Circle. Appropriately, it is known as the Doomsday Vault.
