Synopsis

Wildlife cameraman John Aitchison often finds himself in isolated and even dangerous locations across the globe filming wildlife, and in this series he reflects on the uniqueness of human experience, the beauty of nature, the fragility of life and the connections which unite society and nature across the globe.

Despite a raging storm, John struggles across the rocky shore of Brownsman Island off the coast of Northumberland to film grey seals giving birth at night.
