Season 2

National Geographic wildlife filmmaker Bertie Gregory takes audiences on an adventure to the iconic South Georgia Island. Sailing through some of the roughest ocean on the planet in a 50ft sailboat, the team’s target is the sub-Antarctic island renowned for its 9000ft glaciated mountains that erupt straight up out of the ocean. Together with it’s breathtaking scenery, this island now claims one of the highest concentration of wildlife on the planet. Bertie gets closer than ever before to capture the challenges faced by the 4 toughest animals that call this place home. Sass, teamwork, endurance, and uncanny city living are all techniques for surviving here. But this is more than just a straight natural history show. From Captain Cook’s discovery of the island to the now abandoned whaling settlements, this island presents the very best and worst in our own human nature.
