Sweet fresh water. Host David Attenborough follows the Amazon River, the world's largest river system, from its source in the Peruvian Andes to its huge coastal delta in Brazil.

Open ocean. Host David Attenborough looks at the vast amount of space covered by the earth's oceans, underwater topography, the minute, drifting plankton and forests of kelp, food chains, and the evolution of fish and mammals.
