BBC Earth Collector's Set: Life / Planet Earth (9-DVD)

Two of the most highly praised nature miniseries ever produced - the 9-hour, 11-episode PLANET EARTH (2006) and its 7-hour, 10-episode follow-up LIFE (2009) - each emerged from the combined efforts of the BBC , The Discovery Channel and celebrated naturalist David Attenborough. PLANET EARTH attempts nothing less than a cinematographic survey of the entire planet - combining action sequences, breathtaking natural tableaux and footage of various species so intimate that it is all but unprecedented. As an extension of this, LIFE utilizes cutting-edge microphotography and macrophotography to tell 130 stories from the outer limits of the natural world, narrated by talk show host, actress and media giant Oprah Winfrey.This package includes both complete miniseries, running over 16 hours total. Bonus features include 'The Planet Earth Diaries' (110 minutes of behind the scenes footage), a haunting 150-minute companion series called PLANET EARTH: THE FUTURE, a behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of LIFE called LIFE ON LOCATION, and more.
