I’m only on episode two of BBC One’s gorgeous new high-production nature series, Parenthood, and already I’ve been radicalised. The five-part programme, combining the exquisite narration from Sir David Attenborough and sublime visual storytelling we’ve come to expect from this kind of affair. Read full review

The trek into the dry wilderness for food looks as if it will develop into an allegory about the difficulty of performing crucial tasks with a toddler trailing behind, but then lions turn up, so it devolves into the old story of one of the pack losing their nerve and becoming a cat treat. If lions are to keep their place as the stars of nature documentaries, they need to come up with some new ideas. Read full review
