Sir David Attenborough returned this Autumn with a third series of his flagship documentary series, Planet Earth. Planet Earth III wowed audiences, using groundbreaking technology to reveal wonders of the planet. The show travelled from remote jungles to scorching deserts, even taking a look at the people who have devoted their lives to protecting the natural world.

The episode promises to take us on a global journey, beginning in the deserts of western Africa before moving to the waters of North America. From there, we’ll head to the Amazon rainforest, the African grasslands and freshwater environments of Botswana, eventually arriving in Raine Island after a stop off on South Africa’s Robberg Peninsula. Expect to see ostriches, sharks, leopards, seals and turtles in this incredible voyage around the world.

For those that missed the full show, or just want to experience the breathtaking nature documentary again, this is a must-see. Read on for full details on how to watch Planet Earth III for free and from anywhere.
