For the first time, these must-own programs will be offered together in special collector's gift set. Winner of two Emmy(R) Awards (Outstanding Cinematography - Non-Fiction and Outstanding Music Composition for George Fenton's score), The Blue Planet: Seas of Life is the definitive exploration of the marine world, chronicling the mysteries of the deep, coastline populations, sea mammals, tidal and climatic influences, and the complete biological system that relies on and revolves around the world's oceans. Planet Earth does for the entire world what The Blue Planet: Seas of Life did for the oceans. Using high definition photography and revolutionary ultra-high speed cameras, this is the ultimate portrait of our planet. This truly breathtaking television experience captures rare action, impossible locations and intimate moments with our planet's best-loved, wildest and most elusive creatures.

 Great Series!Jul 09, 2010
The images are so beautiful! Everyone should watch this series. This was a must have for my video collection!
Earth and Ocean Like You've Never Seen ThemJul 07, 2010
I am amazed at the ability of the photographers to get some of the incredible scenes you'll see. For each program, their "diaries" section details some of the difficulties they had getting extremely rare shots, including access to places no one may ever be allowed to visit again and behavior of animals so endangered they many not make it to the halfway point of this century. I love these DVDs. There is so much information that you will get something new from every viewing. Yes, they have a strong save-the-environment message but I am completely on board with it.
Great ProductionMay 30, 2010
It's a great production. You can just go on seeing episode after episode non-stop.
Great Film FootageApr 28, 2010

Mum's a happy camperMar 28, 2010
As a kid my uncle used to send BBC1 airings of Wildlife which I absolutely loved and still do. When I was home last I came across some 20/30 min promos of Blue Planet which I watched and each left me wanting more, my mum saw me watching one and said she would've liked the Blue Planet whereby she could watch the whole thing rather than just bits soooo for me that was her birthday present sorted!
I got this double set which was Blue Planet AND Planet Earth because it was a little cheaper than getting Blue Planet on its own. Havent been disappointed - Mum said its one of the best pressies she ever got (even though I was alittle naughty and watched them before I sent it home :-)!!)
As I remember there are 5 discs in each set with two or three 'episodes' on each disc with the fifth disc holding special features/bonus stuff. What made it extra special (I think) was that after each episode there was a little documentary of how they made it. Like with the Birds of Paradise they built huts at special locations and waited for days for 'action' and then when it happened there was a branch in the way - how they had to cope with that and how they followed a komodo dragon hunt (the dragons attacked a buffalo and then followed it for days waiting for it to die and the cameramen followed the dragons...)
Basically some really intriging, shocking, informative material that'll having you smiling and teary eyed at the same time. A must for the collection of any wildlife fan.
