Broadcast (1989) Could a pterodactyl as large as a light aircraft have flown? Did millipedes once grow to six feet long? How did insects become preserved in amber for over 50 million years? All these questions and more are answered through the study of fossils. In his journeys to the most famous fossil sites in the world, David Attenborough discovers a pre-historic world teeming with life and full of enticing clues as to how life evolved. They reveal how dinosaurs hunted, lived in groups and cared for their young. And they offer glimpses of the most bizarre creatures that ever lived, such as tiny horses and an animal that is half bird and half reptile. With the help of expert palaeontologists, fossil enthusiasts from around the world and sophisticated modelling. Lost Worlds, Vanished Lives breathes life into Earth's distant past.

  • Takes me back to my childhood. I was obsessed with paleontology and it was exciting to grow up in the age that these technologies were revolutionizing our understanding of the distant past. It amazes me how far we have come since, with the further advancement of technology and techniques, and it makes me look forward to the discoveries yet to come.

  • Sir David believes in Intelligent Design.

    Because he designed it.

    He just spends his life explaining his invention.
