The Poles Revealed is a science documentary series about the two extreme ends of the Earth. Taking viewers on a journey of discovery above and below the ice, this is a program that is as breathtakingly beautiful, as it is informative and entertaining.

Many people imagine the Arctic and Antarctic to be much the same – white, barren icescapes of extreme cold. These programmes reveal just how different these landscapes are. The Arctic is an ocean, surrounded by continents, while the Antarctic is a continent surrounded by ocean. As auroras light up the sky, a mystery that has puzzled humankind for years is finally solved.

Anns an t-sreath-aithriseach saidheansail, Iongantas nam Pòlaichean, thathas a’ toirt sùil mhionaideach air gach ceann dhen chruinne-cè. A’ toirt an luchd-amhairc air slighe inntinneach far an tèid ionnsachadh mu na tha tachairt fo agus os cionn na deighe, tha am prògram seo a cheart cho àlainn ‘s a tha e fiosrachail agus dibhearsaineach.

Tha a’ mhòr-chuid de dhaoine dhen bheachd gu bheil an Artaig agus an Antartaig gu math coltach ri chèile – geal, falamh agus puinnseanta fuar. Tha an sreath seo a’ sealltainn dìreach cho eadar-dhealaichte ‘s a tha na cruthan-tìre seo. Tha an Artaig na cuan, air a cuairteachadh le mòr-thìrean, agus tha an Antartaig na mòr-thìr, air a cuairteachadh le cuan. Le na fir-chlis a’ lasadh na speuran, tha rùn-dìomhair a tha air a bhith a’ piobrachadh dhaoine fad bhliadhnaichean air fhuasgladh mu dheireadh thall.
