Re: Planet Earth 11 - Page 6

It's finally here...10 years after the original Planet Earth and well worth the wait. Filming technology has come a long way in the decade since the first series. It has become possible to get even closer to nature, show things in new ways, show new things. The planet itself has changed in those 10 years, too; never has it been more fragile and precious.

Narrated by the wonderful Sir David Attenborough so it could be nothing more than superb

The first episode was about Islands and their inhabitants.

We saw Pygmy Sloths travelling miles (slowly) and swimming across a lake.....in order to mate.

Komodo Dragons fighting to the death...again to get mating rights...

Then in typical OMG filming we saw baby marine iguana hatchlings....appearing out of the sand and making a run to meet up with the adults basking on the rocks....and suddenly being chased by dozens of Racer snakes. Some made it...others did not.

This one was lucky....

Breathtaking, Stunning and well worth the watch....

Viewed the episode on islands last night ... got upset about the bloodied penguins ... nature is cruel = the survival of the fittest

Yes it can be upsetting but species survive unless the human scum intervene by hunting for 'sport' or pleasure. Don't get me started on that.....

The first episode was watched by more than 10,000,000 viewers. I suspect after all the press it is getting... those figures will be higher next week...:smileywink:

Caught it on catch up (thanks BBC Player!).
Cracking show, just like all of the other stuff Attenborough has been involved with.

Oh thank you for that link @Anonymous. Only yesterday my son asked what I wanted for Christmas. I will go for the book (as apparently Johnny Depp is never going to be available)

@Cleoriff you can only hope Johnny Depp becomes available for you in the future

@Martin-O2 I think the double package with the Blue-Ray would be an awesome christmas gift. THe photography and video footage is amazing and I cannot wait for Episode 2 (Mountains)
