I think the whole series is either 8 or 12 parts and the Beeb are showing the next batch soon.

Amazon are selling the DVDs from next month too

Fantastic show, look forward to it. Hopefully it will be broadcast in high def too :cool:

I've seen lots of promotions for it. The music is quality - and that aerial shot of the polar bear swimming is just pure class.

I can't wait to see. I love the BBC wildlife programmes - everything else just pales in comparison.

Though I'm not that convinced about HDTV yet, so I'm not itching to get either the DVD's or view broadcasting with it on.

Can't freaking wait. Well worth paying for a TV licence.

Planet Earth should be used in schools instead of the crap that was being shown when i was at school.

would make geography much more interesting!

Good point, all the kids would learn a hell lot more in 1 hour watching this than reading off a textbook and listening to a teacher (no matter how good a teacher you are, i doubt you can get so much information across with that much clarity in that amount of time.)

They still using Sigur Ros for the adverts?

Could always recognise what advert was on because of that song.

Lets hope they put more than 5 episodes on this time, compared to 24 episodes for other tv series it seems a little short. :rolleyes:

Ah so there are new ones coming ? I thought people were talking about repeats.

Fishman · 25 Oct 2006 at 07:32

AFAIK the plan was for them to air the first 5 episodes then the other X later in the year. This is then synced with the DVD release.

Excellent, thanks
