Reason for submission in English (up to 150 words):

While animation plays a big role in introducing the real wildlife footage in this series, to its young audience, it’s the charming selection of real footage that is most captivating and is in fact what initially inspired the series concept. This use of exceptional wildlife footage enables each episode to achieve the sentiment of sleep and bedtime, which is what this series has been designed to do.

Brief Synopsis in English (up to 100 words):

When the famous blue whale model in London’s Natural History Museum was created in 1938, on the eve of war, it was a testament to the British whaling industry in the Antarctic. But it was also a huge deception. No one had seen a blue whale entire, underwater, and the model is far more plump than the true shape of the sleek, hydrodynamic animal. In this extraordinary 20 minute film, directed by Serena Kenyon and Andrew Wright, the near-mythical model is laid in its historical context, among the greater events of national and international history. As the life-size whale model rises from its foundations, so Chamberlain returns from the Munich with his historic agreement. Fish dance to the Lambeth Walk, while the world moves towards war. And all the while, the blue whale is taking shape, a reminder of a lost peace and a violent future.

Brief Synopsis in English (up to 100 words):

David Attenborough opens our eyes to a monkey world filled with intelligence, love, sadness, empathy, language, lying, social manipulation, stress, and humour. In a wonderful romp through the monkey world, the latest science is used to trace back how we look after our children, our feelings about life and death, the roots of farming and warfare, murder, morality and trust. Attenborough invites us to see monkeys not as animals, ‘but more like rediscovered relatives’. The monkeys themselves are always engaging, whether collecting medicine, breaking their own rules, getting depressed, or using boulders to crack open nuts in time to a Viennese waltz. This was described by Attenborough himself, after recorded his commentary, as ‘an instant classic.’ This film is full of disturbing new science, yet it renews our faith in ourselves. We are not just distrustful and manipulative, but love our babies, and have a burning desire to understand and improve our world. We can be proud of being clever monkeys.

Brief Synopsis in English (up to 100 words):

Sam & Mark pit their wits against the most deadly, dangerous and downright freaky creations on our planet from dinosaurs to Hurricanes, from army ants to great white sharks: and all they have to do is survive. Luckily for them they will not have to do it alone, a guiding voice will aid them in their quest to stay alive. A mixture of live action, archive & green screen combined with a bewildering array of props and moustaches puts Sam and Mark right into the heart of the action. Watch it and live!  

Reason for submission in English (up to 150 words):

The natural history units staggering archive is at the heart of this series allowing for all the remarkable, entertaining and silly interactions that Sam and Mark get involved with throughout the series. The series was written by first watching the archive and targeting certain sequences where we could directly place the presenters into the action. Then whilst filming the archive was available so that many composited pictures have been carefully worked making it feel almost more real. But this was always done with the tongue firmly in the cheek. We did not want to fool the audience into thinking that they are really there, but every so often we wanted them to challenge their suspension of disbelief, which would then make the whole interaction funnier (hopefully.) This series has utilised the wonderful resource of the BBC archive in the most unique, entertaining way, while still maintaining its beauty and integrity. The archive has been sourced from the BBC
