BBC 'Wild China' programme

[anfieldman]

I don't know if anyone has already mentioned this but tomorrow night the BBC starts a new series called 'Wild China'. It is about China's wildlife but the first programme does contain some footage of wildlife in their caves. Not sure how much or how interesting but worth a look I suppose.

Looks good.  Does anyone know if Gavin Newman did the filming for it.  I totally loved the China Beneath the Wall DVD!!

It was well worth watching

I missed it. Did it have the cave footage in it, or is that to come in a later episode (I think Radio Times said it was episode 1 of 6)

For those that missed it (and also 60 minutes of free time)...

Just watched some of it in my lunch break. Look's pretty good quality filming, even boom work which i've not seen in caves before. 

For those just interested in the caving side of the program, it starts at about 15 mins in. Any one else spot the shot of the first pitch in Diccan that snuck its way to China?

Thanks for the tip.

Only available for one more day, so watch it while you can.

(I liked the climbing monkeys...!)
