BBC release breathtaking preview of new Blue Planet II series (Watch Video)

Published

on

The BBC has released an incredible introduction to the new Blue Planet II series which will be premiered on TV this Autumn. This five minute prequel features an array of some of the most awe-inspiring shots and highlights from the new series, as well as several exclusive scenes that will not feature in any of the seven episodes coming soon to BBC One.

According to the BBC, Blue Planet II will take viewers on a revelatory and magical journey into the greatest, yet least known part of our planet – our oceans. By using cutting-edge breakthroughs in science and technology to explore this final frontier, Blue Planet II will reveal the astonishing characters, otherworldly places and extraordinary new animal behaviours. Warm and compelling stories about marine habitats and their characterful inhabitants will build people’s emotional relationship with our oceans and bring a new perspective to this little-known world.

Blue Planet II will be narrated by Sir David Attenborough who also narrated the original multi-award winning Blue Planet series broadcast in 2001. Twenty years on, the Blue Planet II team have spent four years mounting 125 expeditions, visited 39 countries, and filmed off every continent and across every ocean.

Blue Planet II will be scored by Hans Zimmer, Jacob Shea and Dave Fleming for Bleeding Fingers Music. The prequel features an exclusive track developed by Hans Zimmer and Radiohead.

Blue Planet II, a 7×60’ will air later this year on BBC One in the UK, and is made by BBC Studios’ Natural History Unit, co-produced with BBC America, WDR and France Télévisions in partnership with The Open University.
