On tonight BBC 1 at 7.30pm
Looks pretty good.

Taken from website,
Wildlife film-making is one of the most difficult jobs on earth. Thousands want to do it, but few get the chance. For the first time, the BBC has chosen nine people with ordinary jobs to see if one of them has what it takes to become a wildlife film-maker. Presented by Nick Knowles, Wildest Dreams puts them through their paces in one of the natural world's greatest arenas - Africa - with the ultimate prize for just one of them: a job at the BBC's prestigious Natural History Unit.

I'd love to watch it, but the only way the OH would let me get Gorgeous was the TV going..no competition, but do miss the wildlife stuff!

It was quite good.
I dont really get it though, It doesnt seem as if many/any were that passionate about it. Its also quite annoying that some of them dont seem to realise quite how lucky they are to be out there!
The Rhinos were amazing though! And the Lion!

thats exactly what i was thinking, the women who went off tonight for example, all she did was yawn, i kept thinking "god your in africa, all these amazing animals are around you and you just dont care" i know she wanted to see lions, but still all the other animals she saw and didnt care

You would have thought that anyone entering would be passionate about wildlife and study up on as much as they can on what they might be filming. Just to get offered that chance.......! xxx

Anyone still following this?

Spoiler below - Highlight to read






Cant believe Lucy and Allan were on the loosing team, they're the best two there, and their film was so much better!
And Lucy Left She should have won the job!!
She was the best all the way through and no doubt the most passionate and genuine!
Arrrgh, such a crappy episode
Anyway, ALLAN TO WIN
