Brief and Beautiful
I'm a sucker for anything Attenborough and this short two-part documentary sees him anciently roaming the land like a wonderful turtle and taking in the multifarious ways that colour affects life in the animal world. It's unclear if the brevity of the series was due to real life goings-on but even two short hours of it is lovely - darting from species to species like a magical "animal colour facts" greatest hits. The obligatory 10-minute behind the scenes bits are quite unbalanced as always but it's easy to forgive when our beloved turtle pops up so frequently here. The world will be a far less colourful place without him.score 8/10
