Collection of documentaries presented and narrated by Sir David
Attenborough. Set within The Royal Botanic Gardens in London, home
to a remarkable 90% of all known species of plant, 'Kingdom of
Plants' aims to provide an in-depth exploration into the life of
plants. Through the use of the latest technology and advanced
filming techniques, Attenborough and his crew set out to capture
the life and dynamism of plants, something that is often invisible
to the human eye. 'Galapagos' is a documentary about the islands of
the Galapagos. This programme follows the lives and journeys of
remarkable animals from the Giant Tortoise to the Waved Albatross,
allowing the viewer to get up close to the creatures and their
natural habitats. 'Micro Monsters' explores the hidden world of
microscopic insects and bugs. Delving deep into the everyday lives
of creatures such as killer ants, spiders and scorpions, this
programme shows the audience the intriguing acts they perform from
weaving silk trap doors to wearing their victims' corpses. Using
modern scientific advances and research into fossils, 'Rise of
Animals' investigates how animals alive today have evolved from a
small number of ancient life forms. The historical footage and
cutting-edge CGI used in the show allows viewers to discover how
human beings resemble those primeval creatures. In 'Natural History
Museum Alive', David Attenborough brings to life the residents of
London's famous museum. From extinct creatures such as the dodo and
dinosaurs to some lesser known animals from Earth's prehistoric
past, Attenborough highlights the distinctive features of the
residents he meets and discusses how they may have lived and died.
