Synopsis:
First broadcast in December 1954, Zoo Quest was one of the most popular television series of its time and launched the career of the young David Attenborough as a wildlife presenter. Zoo Quest completely changed how viewers saw the world - revealing wildlife and tribal communities that had never been filmed or even seen before. Broadcast ten years before colour television was seen in the UK, Zoo Quest was thought to have been filmed in black and white.
Until now! Thanks to a recent remarkable discovery in the BBC's film vaults, the best of David Attenborough's early Zoo Quest adventures can now be seen as never before - in stunning HD colour - and with it the fascinating behind the scenes stories from David Attenborough and cameraman Charles Lagus of how this pioneering television series was made.

Loved every minute of this going back to the beginning of David Attenborough's career. Well put together and just the right length.
