This is one of those now rare series of programmes that is actually worth watching. It packs in so much information on the world into a short five hours without making you feel totally inundated with it. It's nice to see new programmes as well.
This series is basically about showing you what has shaped our planet and made it what it is today: volcanoes, atmosphere, ice and oceans. It also always gives examples rather than just saying it and then leaving it. The only slight problem I have with it is in some examples it will tell you what happened (ie. when Africa and Spain collided to shut down the Mediteranean Sea), but doesn't go into detail on how it got back on track. Minor problem though.
Dr Iain Stewart has seen some truly remarkable places around the world that very few others will ever see. He does occasionally delve into climate change and what we're doing to the planet whilst also jetting to all sorts of places . This, however, can be excused as someone's got to tell you about how the Earth works and wouldn't be nearly as interesting and captivating if there wasn't a 'hands-on' approach to it all.
