Planet Earth, 4 years in the making, was the most expensive BBC documentary ever made. The original BBC version is narrated by Richard Attenborough while the US version is done by Sigourney Weaver. The script is different for the 2 but the onscreen footage is the same. Some prefer the US version while others, like me, prefer the BBC one.
The BBC version is available on DVD and Blu-Ray.
