A hundred years ago

there were one and a half billion people on Earth.

Now, over six billion crowd our fragile planet.

But even so, there are still places barely touched by humanity.

This series will take to the last wildernesses

and show you the planet and its wildlife

as you have never seen them before.

Imagine our world without sun.

Male Emperor Penguins are facing the nearest that exists on planet Earth -

winter in Antarctica.

It's continuously dark

and temperatures drop to minus seventy degrees centigrade.

The penguins stay when all other creatures have fled

because each guards a treasure:

A single egg rested on the top of its feet

and kept warm beneath the downy bulge of its stomach.

There is no food and no water for them,

and they will not see the sun again for four months.

Surely no greater ordeal is faced by any animal.

As the sun departs from the Antarctic

it lightens the skies in the far north.

It's March

and light returns to the high Arctic,

sweeping away four months of darkness
