Planet Earth I was the first major nature documentary to be filmed in high definition. When it was originally aired in 2006 it had impressive ratings in both UK and US and it won multiple awards, including several Emmys and a Peabody award. More than ten years later, Planet Earth II is again pushing the boundaries by being one of the first documentaries released in HDR on 4K Blu-Ray disks.
