What a mess
23 April 2016
How can this show be rated at anything higher than two stars? Unless you are a person who needs a TV on in the background while trying to go to sleep, this show is not worth air time.

Certain cast members are only there because there because they were 'carried' by better actors in more popular shows but cannot act in their own right. Awful script, worse direction, just bad.

As with others, I'm tired of checking IMDb for a rating/review only to find the initial reviews are obviously false, and having to read ALL reviews to find 'honest' responses. The Rating system these days cannot be trusted. Such a shame. I gave one star, as we should all do to counteract the false reviews/ratings.

Another BBC Wildlife Triumph
26 January 2013
Lucky enough to have seen the first three (To date) episodes in this wonderful new BBC wildlife series I can safely say that the BBC still rules the genre. This series explores not just the wildlife, which it does with brand new spectacular scenes, but also the relationship of the ecosystem with the geology and unpredictable weather systems and natural events. The production team have taken extraordinary measures to provide us with breath-taking scenes and amazing footage, using the latest technology and techniques. So far this season has kept my family, including our 4yr old granddaughter fixed, silently to the screen! The addition of the "Eye to Eye" excerpt at the end of each episode goes a little way to help us understand how these production teams make these shows, and for me, I always look forward to seeing what they are prepared to do to get "the shot of a lifetime."

Wonderful stuff...
