Did anyone watch this last night? Can't believe it was 10 years ago that Planet Earth graced our screens.

The best part for me last night was the iguana's and the snakes. Watching the snakes was something out of a film at just how many there were (no, Samuel L Jackson wasn't about either) and how they all came out of the rocks all in one go.

Great program, the camera equipment and drone shots make it even more amazing to watch, especially the fighting Comodo dragons, Attenborough is a legend.

Agreed, Alexis - that snake sequence was pure horror show! I was hoping that was the part they were going to cover in the 'making of' filler at the end, but they settled for the far less interesting penguin poo sequence instead.

For a combination of the above see this



But as far as Attenborough is concerned, what will we do without hi inspiration. He has been the most outstanding one-man-band in the field of natural history education and conservation of my lifetime, and the combination of those intrepid film crews supporting his understated yet powerful commentaries has an appeal as universal as any religion.

Great find Simon laugh

As for who could possibly replace Sir David, yes that's a question I've been asking for years, Chris Packham is good as are a few but they're just not Attenborough frown

For me, Chris Packham grates, rather than is great.
