BBC natural history producer Alastair Fothergill spent the last ten years producing two of the most stunningly beautiful series ever created, The Blue Planet: Seas of Life and Planet Earth. For the first time, these must-own programs will be offered together in special collector's gift set. Winner of two Emmy(R) Awards (Outstanding Cinematography - Non-Fiction and Outstanding Music Composition for George Fenton's score), The Blue Planet: Seas of Life is the definitive exploration of the marine world, chronicling the mysteries of the deep, coastline populations, sea mammals, tidal and climatic influences, and the complete biological system that relies on and revolves around the world's oceans. Planet Earth does for the entire world what The Blue Planet: Seas of Life did for the oceans. Using high definition photography and revolutionary ultra-high speed cameras, this is the ultimate portrait of our planet. This truly breathtaking television experience captures rare action, impossible locations and intimate moments with our planet's best-loved, wildest and most elusive creatures.

Customer Rating: Summary: DO NOT BUY FROM APYUNITED Comment: I tried to google "apyunited". I was unsuccesful. They didn't even include a "return to sender" sticker. 6 out of 10 DVDs were scuffed or had glue on them. Now I'm stuck with a 10 disc DVD set that might become a "fruit cake substitute gift" for Christmas. Do yourself a favor and
DO NOT BUY FROM APYUNITED. Customer Rating: Summary: Not trustable! Comment: I ordered this item and never recieve it, and they took my money. NO one reply or say anything about my order. Don't buy it from here. Customer Rating: Summary: BBC Nature Series Comment: We thoroughly enjoyed Planet Earth & The Blue Planet Seas of Life (Special Collector's Edition). The cinematography is absolutely sensational! The way in which the series is organized and presented clearly shows the effort and talent of the Producers, narrator, and staff that did the heavy lifting on this beautiful series. Customer Rating: Summary: Buy it !! Comment: Love it!!! My husband and I love to watch all these dvds that you get. Wonderful shows BBC version is the only way to go. So interesting. Customer Rating: Summary: Oh my God Comment: It easy to understand why it took several years for this series to be filmed. On an HD 52" Flat sreen the visuals were abosolutely stunning. I also suggest whoever purchases this product should also consider the Planet Earth disc set. I just couldn'y get over the photography, as well as the in depth knowledge I gained from this series. I highly recommend it.
