Renowned broadcaster and filmmaker David Attenborough has spent seven decades filming every aspect of the natural world, but his latest project, Ocean with David Attenborough, marks a significant milestone in his career. Coinciding with his 99th birthday, this spectacular new film takes viewers on a breathtaking journey to explore the vital importance of the ocean for humanity’s survival.

As The Senior quotes Mr Attenborough, "My lifetime has coincided with the great age of ocean discovery. In this film, we share some of those wonderful discoveries [over the past century], uncover why our ocean is in such poor health, and, perhaps most importantly, show how it can be restored to health."
