Life is one long struggle, a challenge for even the fittest animal. Leaving parents, searching for food, building a home, finding a mate… each day brings a new test. These programs, superbly crafted and originally presented, investigate the many amazing ways in which creatures from all parts of the globe face up to and resolve The Trials of Life.

Life In The Freezer

Antarctica – the last true wilderness on Earth.

Life in the Freezer reveals incomparable standards of natural history filming to trace Antarctica’s seasonal cycle from the long winter months when the formation of ice almost doubles its surface area, to the brief summer when the race to breed really heats up. With more scenes of sheer beauty, passion, comedy, aggression and sadness than any drama, Life in the Freezer is an unmissable opportunity to experience the last true wilderness on earth.

“Mammals, those creatures that are furry, warm-blooded, and nourish their young with milk, are the most popular of all animals – perhaps because we are mammals ourselves”.

The Life of Mammals is BBC’s latest landmark series written and presented by David Attenborough, and an essential title for all video and DVD collections. An epic tale of survival, The Life of Mammals is the story of 4,000 species that outlived the dinosaurs and conquered the earth!
