If you have ever pondered that there are wonderful, beautifully natural things in far away places, you will surely be proved correct by this stunning doco. From the appearance of it, shooting this amazing collection of stories of many animals in the Arctic circle and Antarticta would have taken months upon months. Attenborough's regard of the natural world and his pacing is solid as always, yet the unique aspect of this production is the images included. UNIQUE shots. Being a camera operator in the freezing cold landscape would have been my dream on such a production. Polar bears swimming across an ocean, filmed from 30 feet above, time lapse sequences that track the midnight sun as it skirts across the horizon for 24 hours, time lapse of a large group of penguins being battered by gales as they huddle together for warmth. The many camera operators of this are truly dedicated to their passion. As the credits rolled, I couldn't help but ask myself and everyone in the room - 'how the hell did they get those shots'. If a fan of stunning cinematography amongst the natural landscape, do yourself a favour and get the Planet Earth DVD.
