Robbo and Tai help a Maori navigator find the Black Pearl she has been seeking for centuries. And thanks to the pearl, the true identity of the Sea Born is finally revealed.

Maori navigator Te Ura storms into the cafe and really shakes things up. She is angry that she cannot find the legendary Black Pearl, and really angry because her mutinous sailors don't want to search for it any more. Robbo and Tai go diving for the precious pearl and are led to its hiding place by a school of sharks, but when they present it to Te Ura, Robbo takes all the credit. 

When Te Ura hears how the sharks helped him out, she tells them it can only mean one thing - Robbo is the Sea Born. The power and glory quickly goes to Robbo's head and he manages to fall out with just about everyone and even banishes Chloe from the cafe. With friendships ruined and Robbo not looking particularly heroic, Te Ura gets suspicious. Have they got the right man? 

It seems that only a return visit from the sharks can show Te Ura and the gang who the real hero is, and finally reveal the true identity of the Sea Born.

A look at islands inhabited by some of the most curious examples of life on earth.

Documentary looking at the remote South Pacific islands, which are inhabited by some of the most curious and precarious examples of life found on earth.

The South Pacific islands are the most remote in the world. Their extraordinary isolation has created some of the most curious, surprising and precarious examples of life found anywhere on earth; from giant crabs that tear open coconuts, to flesh-eating caterpillars that impale their prey on dagger-like claws. 

Human culture is different too. The men of Pentecost Island celebrate their annual harvest by leaping from 20-metre high scaffolds, with only forest vines to break their fall. And on the tiny island of Anuta, possibly the most remote community of people on the planet, the locals survive entirely on what they can grow and catch. 

The South Pacific's innumerable islands look like pieces of paradise, but the reality of life here is sometimes very different, with waves the size of buildings, brutal tropical storms, and, in the far south, even blizzards. This is the real South Pacific.

Knowledge, drama, comedy and the arts for a broad adult audience.

Alice Roberts travels to Africa in search of the birthplace of the first people.

Dr Alice Roberts travels the globe to discover the incredible story of how humans left Africa to colonise the world, and searches for clues in the Arabian Desert.

Dr Alice Roberts travels the globe to discover the incredible story of how humans left Africa to colonise the world - overcoming hostile terrain, extreme weather and other species of human. She pieces together precious fragments of bone, stone and new DNA evidence and discovers how this journey changed these African ancestors into the people of today.

Alice travels to Africa in search of the birthplace of the first people. They were so few in number and so vulnerable that today they would probably be considered an endangered species. So what allowed them to survive at all? The Bushmen of the Kalahari have some answers - the unique design of the human body made them efficient hunters and the ancient click language of the Bushmen points to an early ability to organise and plan.

Humans survived there, but Africa was to all intents and purposes a sealed continent. So how and by what route did humans make it out of Africa? Astonishing genetic evidence reveals that everyone alive today who is not African descends from just one successful, tiny group which left the continent in a single crossing, an event that may have happened around 70,000 years ago. But how did they do it? Alice goes searching for clues in the remote Arabian Desert.
