The Sherpas of Everest – Correspondent Cecilia Vega journeys to the Himalayas for the adventure of a lifetime – trekking to Everest Base Camp at the foot of the world's tallest mountain, Mount Everest. Guiding her is 19-year-old Nima Rinji Sherpa, the youngest person to summit all 14 of the world's highest peaks. He embodies a new generation of Nepali climbers demanding recognition on the global stage. This is a double-length segment. Jacqueline Williams is the producer. Presenting the Kanneh-Masons – Correspondent Jon Wertheim travels to Nottingham, England, to visit the Kanneh-Mason family—seven siblings, each still under 30, all celebrated classical musicians whose talent is truly music to the ears. Supporting one another in harmony as they record chart-topping albums and take to the world's stage, this extraordinary septet, as Wertheim discovers, is an orchestra greater than the sum of its parts. David M. Levine is the producer.
