Frozen Planet II
On BBC One
A visually stunning nature documentary that balances the majesty and fragility of polar ecosystems with the intimate lives of their inhabitants, framed by wonder rather than dread.
Ten years on from the original Frozen Planet, this documentary series takes audiences back to the wildernesses of the Arctic and Antarctica and tells the complete story of the entire frozen quarter of our planet that’s locked in ice and blanketed in snow.
