Synopsis:
The one-off specials featured here represent some of David Attenborough's most personal quests and passionate enthusiasms. 'Attenborough in Paradise' represents a childhood dream come true as he visits the forests of New Guinea to record the spectacular courtship displays of the birds of paradise. A piece of amber given to him 60 years ago by a young refugee girl sparked a lifelong interest explored in 'The Amber Time Machine' while 'The Lost Gods of Easter Island' finds him tracing the history of a strange human figurine he bought at auction.
Also included is a special programme on the incredible 'artist' birds in 'Bowerbirds: The Art of Seduction'; an investigation into the music of the wild in 'The Song of the Earth'; an expedition to find a lost tribe in the mountains of central New Guinea in 'A Blank on the Map'; and 'Life on Air', a fascinating celebration of Sir David Attenborough's 50 years with the BBC.
