Blue Planet 2

Unlike the first Blue Planet, the episodes here are more separated by the depth of the ocean.

You will be drawn into the utter slovenliness of his life. Impressive and very off-putting.

This story is told through the eyes of one of the boys and this allows so really interesting narrative things to be done.

This is an intriguing spy thriller set in Cold War Britain. Anyone could be the mole.

The brutality of war is realised here in a way I have never seen and it keeps humanity as well.

This docu-drama follows Simon Yates and Joe Simpson’s attempt at the unclimbable face of a mountain in Peru.

We quickly learn that Thursday has survived but is very unwell and Morse went to jail.

You think this is a trial thriller. Think again. This is a bizarre film set in a courtroom.

Another great series from Attenborough. Each episode looks at a different “type” of sea.

Technology has come a long way since Planet Earth. We can get closer and see more than we could before.
