Isolation

This week we’re taking you to the southernmost continent on the planet: Antarctica. This is where cameraman Lindsay McRae and his team spent 10 months filming emperor penguins for Dynasties. As it was impossible for the crew to leave their location, it meant Lindsay experienced a key life event sixteen thousand kilometres from home. In this episode, you’ll also walk among silverback gorillas in the Impenetrable Forest, step into untouched caves and meet the man who finds companionship through whale song.
