What happens

Life in the Freezer is a BBC nature documentary series written and presented by David Attenborough, first transmitted in the United Kingdom from 18 November 1993. A study of the seasonal cycle of Antarctica, it was the first of Attenborough's more specialised surveys following his major trilogy that began with Life on Earth. Each of the six 30-minute episodes (except the last) examines how species cope with life on the Antarctic continent during the year. The series was produced by the BBC Natural History Unit in conjunction with The National Geographic Society and Lionheart International, Inc. The producer was Alastair Fothergill and the music was composed by George Fenton. Part of Attenborough's Life series of programmes, it was preceded by The Trials of Life (1990) and followed by The Private Life of Plants (1995). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
