• It is the first entry of the Walking with... series and used computer-generated imagery
  and animatronics to recreate the life of the Mesozoic.

  Programmes.

• The Guinness Book of World Records reported that the series was the most expensive
  documentary series per minute ever made.

• The series won three Emmy Awards: Outstanding Animated Program, Outstanding
  Special Visual Effects and Outstanding Achievement in Non-Fiction Programming – Sound
  Editing

• A 3D movie based on the series is currently being produced by BBC Films and 20th
  Century Fox.
Episode 1: New Blood

It is the mid-Traissic period, an the sun is setting on the age of reptiles. Once the most
dominant life forms on the planet, reptiles are now represented by only a few species.
But as the age of reptiles wanes, new animals are on the rise, and among them, the first
members of a new dynasty: the dinosaurs.

Episode 2: Time of the Titans

It is the late Jurassic, and dinosaurs rule the land. At the height of this reign, saurpods are
the dominate herbivore on Earth. We follow the life of one sauropod, a Diplodocus, from
hatchling to sub-adult, and the challenges she faces in her world.

Episode 3: Cruel Sea

Dinosaurs may rule the land, but it's a different story in the oceans. Marine reptiles
dominate the seas. A school of female Opthalmasaurus are moving into the reefs around
the northern Tethys Sea to give birth. Once born, the young ichythosaurs must dodge
sharks, plesiosaurs like Cryptoclydus, and the monstrous pliosaur Liopleurodon, the
largest carnivore ever.
Episode 4: Giant of the Skies

Reptiles not only rule the seas, but the skies as well. This is the time of the pterosaurs, flying
reptiles that dominate the Cretaceous skies. And at this point, none is as large as the massive
Ornithocheirus, the largest pterosaur at the time. We follow the final days of one such
Ornithocheirus as he makes his way to the mating grounds, soaring over the lands ruled by
dinosaurs.

Episode 5: Spirits of the Ice Forest

In the mid-Cretaceous, Australia, Antarctica, and South America are still connected in one
super continent. This is a time when the South Pole is a huge polar forest, where for five
months of the year, the sun never sets. The Antarctic forests are a land which time
forgot, where allosaurs still prowl the forests and ancient amphibians still hunt along the river
banks. We fellow a year in the life of a clan of small dinosaurs, Leaellynsaura, and their
struggle to survive in this unique environment.

Episode 6: Death Dynasty

The year is 65.5 million BC, and the time is 11:59pm for the dinosaurs. Volcanic activity has
begun to choke the land, and dinosaurs are suffering. Few eggs are hatching, poisoned by the
toxins in the air. Dinosaurs are on the decline, while mammals are thriving. The pterosaurs
are all but gone, replaced by birds, and a massive asteroid is on its final journey to Earth. In
this world, the most infamous carnivore stalks the land, the mighty Tyrannosaurus.
