Description
Planet Earth is a 2006 BBC documentary series about the diversity of Earth's ecosystems. It was the first documentary series to be filmed in high definition. Every episode but the first one looks at one of Earth's natural habitats and examines its local features, together with the breadth of fauna found there.
The latest David Attenborough nature documentary series, shot in
HD. This ambitious 2006 series, described as 'the definitive look
at the diversity of our planet' was the first ever to be filmed
entirely in high definition. Every episode but the first one looks
at one of the Earth's natural habitats and examines its local
features, together with the breadth of fauna found there. While
filming it, the crew caught several firsts - places and animals
never before caught on camera. The fact that it was co-funded by
Discovery Channel, BBC and Japan's NHK, took 5 years to make and
was shot in over 200 locations is apparent and the series is
everything you'd expect from Sir David Attenborough and his team if
they were unconstrained by budget or practicality.
