If you missed the eight part series then a DVD is out now.  The  team of intrepid adventurers explored the oceans of planet Earth. The team ventured into some of the planet's most challenging environments and with the help of scientists and dive teams, they descended beneath frozen Arctic ice-sheets, dived into mysterious black holes in the Bahamas and plunged into the dark water with the fearsome Humboldt squid.


“We are here to understand the Earth’s oceans and put them on a human scale.”
Paul Rose
