Galapagos on DVD

In the extreme isolation of the Pacific ocean, nothing is as it seems. Iguanas swim the sea like dragons and nest in smouldering volcanic craters, birds become vampires and tool users, penguins, sharks, whales and seals lurk amongst colourful tropical corals, 500 pound tortoises bellow over lava fields … welcome to the Galapagos.

The inspiration behind Darwin’s theory of evolution, the Galapagos is an ever changing stage for a spectacular range of animals and plants. Savage, bizarre, hellish yet beautiful, these are the islands that changed our view of life on Earth and of ourselves.

Witness the birth of an island rising from the cold oceanic depths in fiery volcanic explosions, the building of nightmarish lava fields, the archipelago on a march through time, baking deserts, tropical forests, ghostly alpine mountains and their colonisation by life, until, worn down by wind and waves, the land sinks back down to a watery grave.

Presented in a new, ground-breaking visual style combined with exhilarating cinematography and breathtaking graphics, this landmark new series examines the spectacular variety of wildlife and evokes the different characters of the islands and their history.

Galapagos is available to buy on DVD from Monday, October 30.
