About the show

From the highest mountains to the deepest rivers, Planet Earth combines unimaginable scale, impossible locations and intimate moments with our planet's wildest, most elusive creatures.

Four years in production, over 2000 days in the field, using 40 cameramen filming across 200 locations, this is a portrait of the planet never seen before. It is a journey through the challenging seasons and the daily struggle for survival in Earth's most extreme habitats.

This is the first natural history series to be filmed entirely in high definition, providing an unparalleled view of awe-inspiring landscapes from all across the globe and incredible footage of the rarely spotted, almost mythical creatures that live in these habitats.

This definitive look at the diversity of our planet is narrated by David Attenborough.
