Gordon Buchanan, Kate Humble and Simon Reeve explore the planet's last great wilderness - the Arctic. Broadcasting live from the shores of Canada's Hudson Bay at the peak of polar bear season, the team discover what life is really like on top of the world.

Tonight, Kate meets the Inuit artists inspired by the changing world around them, while Simon heads off on a fishing expedition - Arctic style. In Churchill, Gordon finds out how the town deals with their more troublesome bears when he follows the eviction of a repeat offender. And live from the tundra, the team check on the bears.
