b'IN THIS EPISODE: Janet Wishart loved practicing her evil Satanic magic \\u2013 and equally loved boasting about it; something you really shouldn\\u2019t do if you happen to live in the days of the Great Scottish Witch Hunt. (Janet Wisharts\\u2019s Witchy Ways) *** Have you ever seen the movie \\u201cGoing In Style\\u201d about some retired elderly men deciding to do one last robbery just to see if they had the stuff? Whether you watched the 1979 original or the 2017 remake, the premise is hilarious and fun. But apparently several men in 2015 decided to do it for real \\u2013 and almost walked away with $200-million in cash and jewels! (The Grandpa Gang Jewel Robbery) *** The encounter of Gerry Anderson is one of the most intriguing claims of alien abduction in the United Kingdom. Not least as he wouldn\\u2019t fully recall the incident that occurred in the early 1950s when he was a 12-year-old boy until decades later under hypnotic regression. (The Alien Abduction of Gerry Anderson) *** In November, 1980 the MGM Grand in Las Vegas caught fire, claiming numerous lives. Decades later we learn what went wrong, how it can be avoided in the future, and we hear the haunting details of what happened during the fire \\u2013 as well as the hauntings that are taking place even now so many years later. (A Grand Fire in Las Vegas)
