    There’s an aptness about Attenborough, the channel controller who oversaw the introduction of colour to BBC Two, celebrating nature’s hues. And those male peacocks didn’t disappoint.

    Life In Color With David Attenborough is informative and visually stunning, of course, but the technology behind some of its more interesting scenes is what makes us want to keep watching.

    “Life in Color” is mostly the same old story, the fight for love, food and territory. And as always in Attenborough’s shows, these stock narratives are rendered in a succession of dazzling images, here made even more arresting because of the series’s focus on varicolored plumage and skin.
