David Attenborough's Galapagos is a news/current affairs series airing on UK television.
The broadcaster explores the Galapagos, a collection of volcanic islands in the Pacific known for its extraordinary wildlife. More than 150 years after Charles Darwin formulated his ground-breaking theory of evolution on the remote archipelago, Attenborough explains how life on the islands has continued to evolve in biological isolation, examining how the ever-changing volcanic landscape has given birth to species and sub-species that exist nowhere else in the world. He begins by revealing how Galapagos rose from the ocean four million years ago
The broadcaster reveals how life learned to adapt quickly in an ever-changing volcanic landscape, resulting in such unique species as giant whale sharks and marine iguanas
The broadcaster reveals the differences between the islands and encounters giant Pinta Island tortoise Lonesome George, who died a few weeks after filming
