I'm hypnotised by the movement of snakes. It always looks like it shouldn't work.

Agreed, fabulous video BUT audio soundtrack only Dolby Digital Pro Logic, I wonder why?
When available, my amp decodes DD 5.1 on most Virgin Media HD channels, TV Freeview HD and TV Smart app Netflix.HD Amazing short coming by the BBC!... however still tremendously impressive sound especially that of the pounding sea. Wonder what it would sound like in Dolby ATMOS?. Probably mind blowing!. Anyway no doubt, like the first series, the Blu-ray will have the full DTS HD-MA soundtrack. |

Iguana Jones, I always knew some day you'd come waddling back towards the rocks.

I can only imagine the sound man and his colleagues spending a day lugging a ton of equipment up a cliff settling down tonight to watch all his hard work and no 5.1 sound.
Anyway no doubt, like the first series, the Blu-ray will have the full DTS HD-MA soundtrack. However PE2 is the perfect program for viewing on the largest screen with the best home cinema sound one can afford ............ for a totally mind-blowing immersive experience. |

I found it great, no issues at all.
Anywho, what a programme! For me, the narratives add to the experience. No soundtrack/narration loudness or quietness issues either. David was great as usual - guess my ears work fine

They were on near the beginning, I think after the pygmy sloaths. Spectacular footage it was as well.

Amazing programme, I've never seen anything like those snakes - terrifying.
Sad to say though the damn music spoiled it for me, so intrusive and unnecessary. Would have preferred just David Attenborough's voice and the sounds of nature. |

Fantastic programme with amazing camera work. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
Every time I watch penguins I always think of the movie 'Happy Feet'. The snake sequences were the worst of nightmares. Sooooo many of them preying on a small hatchling. Yuk! Made my skin itch involuntary through fear. Wouldn't get me sunbathing on that snake infested, sandy beach. |
