(16 August 2002 7:10 pm)

Star World has announced a slew of shows for this month.

A new show Charmed will air every Wednesday from 28 August at 9 pm. The show explores the relationship between three siblings, who after discovering that they possess supernatural powers, are reluctantly thrown into the world of doing good as they discover supernatural evil. Starring Alyssa Milano, Holly Marie Combs and Rose McGowan, the trio must keep their identity as "the charmed ones" secret from the world.

In an attempt to capitalise on the huge success the film Jurassic Park had on Star Movies, Star World will bring back The Lost World from tomorrow at 11 pm. Based on a story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle the show is set at the dawn of the 20th century. The survivors of a daring scientific expedition are marooned on an exotic plateau forgotten by time, where the threat of vicious ape-men, giant crocodiles, and flesh-eating dinosaurs is around every corner.

In addition That '70s Show will return to tickle the funny bone from 26 August at 9 pm. New episodes of Law & Order: Special victims unit kick off 20 August at 7:30 & 11:30 pm. This hard-hitting and emotional companion series to NBC's Law & Order chronicles the life and crimes of the elite Special Victims Unit of the New York Police Department. A new slew of epsiodes of Nash Bridges starts 23 August at 6:30 and 10 pm. The show stars Don Johnson as a San Francisco police investigator (Don Johnson) who deserves his reputation as a topnotch cop, but who's not always so successful when it comes to his personal life.

The channel has also lined up a special. Moment of Impact airs on 19 August at 7:20 and 11:00 pm. This Emmy Award-winning documentary details the compelling stories behind some of the world's most memorable and dramatic photographs. Hosted by Emmy-winner and Academy Award nominee Sam Waterston, the program features six Pulitzer Prize photographers who return to the scene of the action and describe, in a gripping first-hand account, how he or she took their prize-winning photographs. The stories of these unforgettable photographs- many of them shown here for the first time - are as compelling and long lasting as the images themselves.
