A GMA News TV Special: BBC's 'The Blue Planet'

Following the ratings success of the Philippine free TV airing of Planet Earth, GMA News TV airs a new, groundbreaking natural history series by the BBC, The Blue Planet.   We know more about the surface of the moon than we do the deep oceans, yet the sea constitutes two thirds of our planet. From the familiar to the unknown, The Blue Planet reveals the sea at its most fearsome and alluring. 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, The Blue Planet is the definitive exploration of the marine world.   An emotional experience: React with laughter and with tears at the dramatic stories of survival in the vast oceans. An epic journey: Chronicling the mysterious habitats of the open ocean and the deep, as well as the more familiar coral reefs. And pioneering: Discover new species and habitats and study animal behavior never before caught on camera until this series was produced.   Narrated in Filipino by award-winning documentarist Kara David, BBC's The Blue Planet will air on GMA News TV Channel 11 every Saturday night at 10, starting this Saturday the first of September.
