New Father Thames Narrated by David Attenborough
A heron's and eel's eye view of this world-famous river, once deadly to swim in, now alive with a wide variety of wildlife including ducks, salmon, meadow flowers and rare dragonflies.
From Southend via London, Henley and the beautiful upper Thames, this heron's and eel's journey reveals both good and bad news about the continually changing waterway that affects a great many people. Photography HUGH MAYNARD and MARTIN SAUNDERS
