Anyone else see it?

Brilliant stuff and the 10 min sections that they do at the end 'how we filmed it' make me wish I was a film maker!

Agreed with all of the above, was absolutely stunning. Incredible to be able to get those kind of shots at all, let alone making them look so good.

The whales hunting together was amazing.

Ah ha..

Yes.. I is disrespektin Sir Dave..

Menolikiehisstylee. Controversial Moi?

To be fair it's his sort of nasal drone rather than subject matter, but I kinda get the feeling that if the BBC doesn't have Dave on it, no one will watch it, which is tosh of course, the BBC makes and has made some epic wildlife programmes..

I'm more a fan of Brucie (no not "nice game nice game" fame) Parry... I do wonder if the BBC would just stop playing to the Chambray Shirt brigade and stick another presenter on.. and give Mr VoiceOver a more suitable job.

Good Programme though, utterly brill photography again and I'm still not too sure how they get all the animals/mamals to perform for the camera.. Must be an Animal Training for made for TV Programmes Skool somewheres..

Really enjoyed it, surprised with the orca wave thing to, watched a fair few nature docs over the years and had never even heard of that. The bison knocking the calf over looked deliberate to :p

I is stepping outside, to do the Can Can as it happens.. No need for the vilification, I'm already in the naughtyshed for stepping forth, mouth gaping and verbalisation of disrispektin Sir Dave.

Oh believe me I'm a believer all right, without him and his enthusiasm for the subject matter we'd all be thinking Gorillas were fictitious grey inflated jump suits worn by drunk “y’ocals” and spouted as being real by meandering missionaries doped up on Opium.

Sir Stevie however, a true believer,

“takes worthy bow, worthy bow whilst shuffling backwards out of the room.. “

I saw a loin today,as it happens....

You know, after watching the program, the thought about the captive ones at sea world did cross my mind. The thing that I really took from it was how they stuck their heads out and really looked at what was on the ice and checked it out.

I just don't see how captive ones can be kept for any particular purpose anymore.

I know, I was expecting one of them to pop up, lean to the side and attempt a grab.
