The majority of shows on the slate, one of the BBC’s largest of the year, have already been announced, and The Wonder of Song from Mike Birkhead Associates is one of two Attenborough films that will air this December. The other is Windfall Films’ Attenborough and the Mammoth Graveyard (working title).

Attenborough’s longtime collaborator Mike Birkhead is writer, director and producer alongside Beth Jones.
