    Blue is the new Blue
    Much will probably be discussed about the genuinely stunning photography in this series but it cannot be underplayed enough: it is imperious.

    Beautiful, beautiful shots of wonderful creatures going about their daily lives, together with informative narration and innovation. All rounded off accompanied by a blockbuster-movie-standard score which soars and settles with the visuals.

    This series took around four years to film, and I can only imagine what the poor editors had to leave out.

    Worthy of a mention is the astounding super-slow motion on display. In oceans so vast, we can see single droplets! It is a brilliant series for all ages.

    The BBC is unsurpassed at this type of documentary. And to think, the BBC costs UK taxpayers about 50 pence per day and some people think it should be cut down/split up/privatised. I really hope this doesn't happen as, yes, the BBC has faults like many broadcasters, but when it does something like this, it really cannot be beaten.

    Watch this with your children, or your partner, or on you own. It doesn't matter, just watch it. And experience some awe.
