...This is an amazing series with breathtaking and beautiful shots of at nature fron all areas of the world - from the poles to the deserts. It is a DVD set that can be watched again and again, and you would still find something that amazes you about this Planet's ecology.
I enjoy nature documentaries but this one left me in such amazement of our planet. The BBC have spent so long making this, you appreciate the detail the film crew go into, as the scenes in this documentary are simply breathtaking, and you become in awe of mother nature. I highly recommend this series to people of all ages, as I think everyone should watch it, and gain an appreciation of our PlanetEarth....

...WOW. This is genuinely the best thing i have ever bought. Theres hours of fantastic footage of some places and animals that almost all of us will never experience up close. This ground-breaking documentary takes the audience to places that they didnt even know existed, showing the most beautiful caves, most remote deserts and showing the weirdest yet amazing creatures on the planet.
The DVD is packed full of extra features including a special extra DVD talking about the future of planetearth. Also at the end of each episode is about 10 or so minutes about the making of that episode showing what the camera crews had to endure to take these fantastic breath-taking images for us, however this isnt just for the DVD as the original episodes has this aswell....

...This is a truly magnificent box-set comprising of all of the PlanetEarth programs that have been aired on TV, and some special features included.
The DVDs show fascinating scenes of nature that will be delightful to any nature lover and even those who aren't too keen on the natural world. They show all of the delights of the modern world. From the world's massive mountains to the deepest ocean trenches, PlanetEarth discovers the worlds most beautiful or amazing of nature's secrets. One such highlight is a cave filled with bat manure and swarming with cockroaches. Many undiscovered creatures are found crawling around inside.
This is a MUST buy for ANY nature enthusiast and days of fun are to be had replaying these brilliant DVDs. Even if you aren't so keen on nature, you will be amazed and fascinated by these majestic scenes...
