Wild Isles

Few television experiences excite me more than a David Attenborough nature documentary.

Wild Isles is a tremendous exploration of the wildlife of the British Isles. The landscapes of Great Britain, its surrounding territories, and Ireland are magnificent and provide a beautiful backdrop to the action.

I find it genuinely difficult not to award 10 stars, but I just felt like the series forced the "this is Britain and it's fabulous" message a little too much, making it fall slightly short of similar programmes like Planet Eart II.

It would be a shock to most people if you don't like this show.
