Wild Isles

I always love watching David Attenborough, always such fantastic filming and narration!

And instead of watching animals in far flung corners of the world, I can see the animals that are in my own country on my doorstep and they're amazing!

I like the sections at the end showing the crew filming these amazing animals and activities.

Wonderful images, beautiful views, amazing how Attenborough and his workers managed to create all the scenes. It is also frightening to see how much species dissapeared over the years.

The only thing in my opinion that made it difficult to watch is the continuous music in the background. For example in episode three,Grasslands, you can hardly hear the beautiful sound of the lapwings and other birds in the fields. Why oh why is background music in films about mother Nature necessary?

Buf furthermore, compliments to the crew about this amazing serie.

Hopefully Attenborough will make it in good health till he is 120 years, almost irreplaceable.

When Sir David Attenborough and BBC team up to produce a documentary movie/series, we do not need to watch it and then rate it. They make marvelous documentaries together. This rule applies to this documentary series too. They seem to have turned inside to the wildlife of Britain. As gorgeous are the documentary series they have made about Africa and other parts of the world, this one is massively gorgeous. The scenes are amazing, the creatures displayed are beautiful and beautifully shot. Cinematography is top-notch. Sir Attenborough is doing a great job of making us aware of the natural world, the animals and their fragile future. His documentaries are eye-opening. His narration adds to the beauty of this series.

Taking placed in and around Britain and Ireland, the old master in perhaps his final presentation, avidly narrates alongside views of exquisite wildlife footage in this 5 episode series, showing us the remaining pockets of land and water which are home to remarkable animals. This series on wildlife is as fascinating as any that have come out of more exotic locations. Britain or Ireland could build a zoo just showing these local creatures and it would be a smash.

Sadly, we are reminded that due to human encroachment, pollution, farming runoff, overfishing, few such areas remain and the population of the various species examined have dropped up to 90% in recent years. Hopefully though unlikely, these trends will be reversed.

If reincarnation exists, I'd like to be reborn as Sir David. BBC productions narrated by this gentleman are a masterpiece of the world. And Sir David continues to amaze us. These productions must be watched in 4K and with good sound. The wonders of nature that the BBC team has been showing us for years can make us look at our planet and its beauty differently. And this series does just that. Everyone should see it because, on a daily basis, we do not notice what a beautiful environment we were given to live in. As usual 10/10. The series also allows us to stop thinking about how crazy the world and times we live in are now.
