Thu 1
One Ocean — Blue Planet II
Footage of marine life in different environments around the north, beginning with a tropical coral reef which has medicinal properties for dolphins, and is used as a tool by tusk fish. In Japan, a shipwreck is home to the Asian sheephead wrasse, which can change gender, while in the polar north, walruses struggle to find ice floes for their pups to rest on as climate change takes its toll on the environment
-
Thu 1
The Deep — Blue Planet II
Creatures that live in volcanic hot spots on the ocean bed, areas that reach temperatures hot enough to melt lead and which may hold the secrets behind all life on Earth. Other strange creatures from the depths of the sea include bone-eating worms, fish that walk rather than swim, and hordes of squid. Plus, footage of sharks in a feeding frenzy over the dead body of a whale and the wildlife of the Midnight Zone in the Pacific, an area that never receives any natural light, forcing creatures to rely on their own bioluminescence
-
Thu 1
Coral Reefs — Blue Planet II
Creatures that live on coral reefs, including groupers, small predators that scientists believe are as intelligent as chimpanzees. These creatures have a remarkable aptitude for communication to the point where they can interact with other species including octopi and work together to catch prey. Plus, footage of a vast spawning event involving several different species of fish, coral and invertebrates, and time-lapse photography of coral polyps growing and dying, creating a structure visible from space

Sat 3
Big Blue — Blue Planet II
Wildlife that live thousands of kilometres from land, featuring footage of baby turtles using debris as life rafts and whales sharks embarking on lengthy voyages across the Pacific to the point where it is safest to give birth. Special pressure-proof cameras are used to film sperm whales hunting for squid a kilometre beneath the surface and the impact of plastic pollution on the oceans is revealed
-
Sat 3
Green Seas — Blue Planet II
Footage of wildlife inhabiting underwater kelp forests, including thousands of giant cuttlefish spawning along a restricted area of rocky reef off the south coast of Australia. Males outnumber females 11 to one, which leads to fierce competition. Larger males use brute force to drive off competition, while their smaller rivals use deception by mimicking the appearance of females. The programme also features tiger sharks hunting for green turtles in fields of seagrass and spider crabs trying to avoid predators while they shed their shells
-
Sat 3
Coasts — Blue Planet II
Footage of animals that live on the coast, including sea lions working in packs to hunt tuna in the shallows and moray eels that venture out of the water to seek out food on dry rocks. Puffins must brave predators to bring a mouthful of food back to their young and king penguins go without food for a month while they moult. Plus, footage of the bizarre Leaping Blenny, a fish that hates the water
-
Sat 3
Our Blue Planet — Blue Planet II
The series concludes with a look at the ways human activity can impact on aquatic wildlife, including albatrosses unwittingly feeding their offspring plastic, mother dolphins with contaminated milk, and communications between animals being disrupted by noise. However, there are signs of hope, including the thriving Norwegian Spring-Spawning Herring, previously on the brink of extinction, and efforts to save endangered species like the whale shark and to preserve the eggs of giant leatherback turtles
