David Attenborough is to present the third instalment of the BBC’s award-winning natural history programme Planet Earth. This outing of the epic homage to nature’s variety will air later this year on BBC One.
“Planet Earth wouldn’t be Planet Earth without David, so I’m delighted he is presenting the third series,” says Mike Gunton, Planet Earth III’s executive producer. “As ever, he has brought his huge enthusiasm and wisdom, has been encouraging about our new perspective and has, I know, really enjoyed seeing the extraordinary new wonders brought to the screen.”
