Planet Earth: Frozen Planet

Frozen Planet takes viewers on an extraordinary journey across the polar regions of our planet, North and South. The Arctic and Antarctic are the least known wildernesses of all - magical ice worlds inhabited by the most bizarre creatures on earth.

It's spring in the polar regions and the sun appears after an absence of five months; warmth and life return to these magical ice worlds the greatest seasonal transformation on our planet in underway.

It's high summer in the polar regions and the sun never sets. Vast hordes of summer visitors cram a lifetime of drama into one long, magical day as they compete to feed, fight and rear their young in this brief window of plenty.

In the polar regions, autumn means dramatic battles and epic journeys through erradic and dangerouse weather conditons on land and at sea. Time is running out as the Arctic Ocean is slowly freezing over day by day!

Winter has arrived and as darkness cascades over the polar region and only a few remarkable survivalists prepare for some of the most dangerous and unforgiving seasons of the year.

This is the last frontier where we discover the extraordinary riches and wonders of the polar reigons and the people who lived there.
