- Lions: Spy in the Den
E1Lions: Spy in the DenIntroducing 'Bouldercam' - a revolutionary remote camera device that boldly goes where no camera has gone before - right into the heart of a lion pride. Looking deceptively like a mobile rock, but carrying a hidden digital camera, 'Bouldercam' gets up close and personal as it unravels the story of how cubs learn to become adult lions. Bouldercam was often just a whisker away as the cubs were watched, for over 3000 hours, growing up and learning to be lions. As David Attenborough says 'This is no ordinary film about lions.' - Elephants: Spy in the Herd
E2Elephants: Spy in the HerdThe sensational Bouldercam that took us to within a whisker of lions in 'Spy in the Den' applies its revolutionary brand of photography to perhaps the most popular of all animals - the African Elephant. Like its predecessor, 'Elephants' is an action-packed ride full of natural humour. This time, the film uses an army of mobile cameras - all of them disguised as piles of elephant dung! In TV-shaking proximity, they reveal what it is really like to be part of an elephant family. - Bears: Spy in the Woods
E3Bears: Spy in the WoodsThis film uses an army of camouflaged roving cameras to unravel the lives of one of the world's most popular groups of animals. It is the most intimate portrayal ever of life amongst these engaging creatures. Using an array of almost magically camouflaged cameras the film take us to within paw's reach of the most charismatic of the world's bears. The Giant panda (filmed exclusively in the wild) is the star of the film. The programme shows how this popular creature fits into the great bear family. It contrasts its lifestyle with the American brown bear - the archetypal bear - as well as its arctic cousin the Polar bear. This far-reaching investigation also highlights the less well-known spectacled bear - the only bear to inhabit South America and the inspiration for Paddington bear. The roving cameras take us closer to these enchanting subjects than ever before.
