Plastic fantastic
If you think plastic surgery is all about botox, face-lifts, tummy-tucks, liposuction and the pursuit of admiring glances - think again. Sure, it can turn heads but it can also turn someone's life around. Jason Williamson is testimony to that. He was the victim of a horrible accident. His leg was literally ripped to shreds. 20/20 follows his remarkable journey from death's door. You'll be amazed at how this man gets back on his feet.

The Spector spectacle
There's nothing ordinary about Phil Spector. The legendary music producer wore wigs, brandished guns, made millions transforming rock 'n' roll, then was convicted of murdering a young starlet. So what kind of woman would stay with him "till death do us part"? That would be Rachelle Spector, the fourth Mrs Spector and defender of the guilty.

Cyber crime fighters
They are the cyberspace crime-fighters, searching for justice on the net. One man's father was murdered in his office. One woman's brother was beaten to death and dumped in the back of a car. When police couldn't catch the killers they turned to the net - where it seems justice can be found...

Pirates Attack
Cargo ships and passenger ships are prized targets for Somali pirates. But yachties are increasingly finding themselves under attack. Jay Berry and Carol Martini were on the holiday of their dreams, sailing around the world, when they had a run-in with Somali pirates. They stared death in the eye, but lived to tell the tale.

The best of New Zealand and international current affairs - 20/20 - presented by Miriama Kamo with reporters Sonya Wilson, Beth Roche and Hugh Hughes.
