Follow Jeremy, Richard, and James, as they embark on an adventure across the globe. Driving new and exciting automobiles from manufactu res all over the world.
Following the success of 'Big Cats: An Amazing Animal Family', engaging presenter and biologist Patrick Ayree returns to investigate our closest relatives in the natural world - primates. 'Monkeys: An Amazing Animal Family' is a lavish documentary that follows Patrick across the globe as he explores the incredible evolutionary rise of dazzlingly different primate species. Today, there are more than 300 species of primates. All of different shapes and sizes, they can jump higher, swing further and solve problems better than virtually any other animal group on Earth. But how and why? Patrick gets up close and personal with apes and monkeys as he climbs the primate family tree. Beginning 60 million years ago in Asia's dense forests, he discovers the origin of the earliest primates and how they conquered the world, making it from South Africa to America where they evolved into the intelligent, inquisitive and more physical members of the primate family that we now know as monkeys. As well as investigating the rise of the apes and the birth of our closest animal relative, the gorilla, Patrick explores why these creatures developed into incredible acrobats and how they evolved to have strong and long tails, loud howls or huge claws. From the tiny mouse lemur to the giant gorilla, Patrick explores them all in a stunning three-part documentary that features gorgeous photography, extraordinary animal behavior and one of TV's brightest new presenting talents.

1. The Book of Life 第一集 生命之书 简介： 基因，地球上一切具细胞结构的生命的共同点和差异点。整部地球生命史被篆刻在每一种生物的DNA中，生命之书由DNA密码书写的基因构成。基因造就了我们，我们也塑造了基因，基因保存着我们的过去，也预示着我们的将来。漫漫进化之路上，基因的千变万化让地球生命得以多姿多彩。基因的四倍化使脊椎动物登上进化舞台，主宰了如今的生物世界，减数分裂让我们长得像父母，又不同于父母。基因让我们失去了一些，同时又得到了更多。 2. Unlocking the Code 第二集 破解密码 简介： 继上一集内容，我们对DNA的工作方式，有了基本的了解：基因，遗传的基本单位，控制生命某一特征的特定DNA片段区域，其分子中的碱基A T C G凭借千变万化的组合，编码着总共20种氨基酸，氨基酸以特定的排列组合又构成无数种蛋白质。。。。由简入繁，生命之真谛啊~~。自人类基因组计划完成的10年来，我们对自身有了更深入的了解，好多事情是基因惹得祸啊，大家一定要去做孕前与产前筛查，优生优育是国策。

Treasures Of The Indus is 3 x 60’ episodes made by Tern TV, which tell the story of the Indian Sub-Continent through the treasures that have shaped the modern Indian world. From the plains of Pakistan to the foothills of the Himalayas, from Northern India and Rajasthan to the deep South and Tamil Nadu, Dr Sona Datta explores this vast melting pot of diverse civilisations, religions, cultures and glorious landscapes that has given us some of the greatest artistic golden ages on earth. The series will chart the history of the Indus Valley, telling the relatively unknown story that stretches back 4,500 years to the Ancient Indus civilisation who gave us, amongst other things, the decimal system. Sona explores the art of the Mughals, who created the most famous and dazzling empire that India has ever seen, from the Taj Mahal to fabulously intricate miniatures of court life. She questions whether the Mughals were trying to impose their own religion of Islam or indeed whether they were open to the religion and art of the country they were trying to conquer and she discovers some of the 33,000 sacred temples hewn from rock, sandstone and marble in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
