Please stop just linking to the Mail, we know where it is if we want it, i come here to get away from that shit.

Really sorry guys, I'm no fan of the Daily Mail, just thought it was an important piece of info. My daughter has been told to watch this, of course she hasn't. Her choice though, I didn't even know what it was until I read this article. Why do they call it Frozen Planet when it's all about Global Warming?

If only there was some way the Americans could watch it without it being on main stream tv?

Oh well

Daily Mail is the most read newspaper (or online place also) in the UK. If u don't like it, well then convince the rest of UK to ditch it before u knock it.

also post this vid as a torrent later so those that can't see it can.

Try and find a UK proxy server, then just got to BBCIplayer, you'll most likely need to wait for it to buffer though due to packet routing. Failing that, there's always someone somewhere that will upload the episodes to megavideo or videobb or some place like that eventually. In fact, you could try using the TOR browser, it might let you watch, however, I haven't tried myself so I don't know.

I've been enjoying the series, but as soon as the topic of climate change gets mentioned, i'll turn off. I don't entertain that dribble.

I wonder if in regard to viewing figures, the BBC will "hide the decline" as the University of East Anglia so eloquently put it...

Is the only TV I watch in HD marvelous!

Amazing they haven't mentioned GW much in this atall. Usually at the end of every show they do a little guilt trip bit.

dawnbreak · 16-11-2011, 12:20 AM

I've been watching the Frozen Planet .

I think it is a really good programme.

The photography or cinematorphy is amazing

I don't normally say that about tv programmes but this one is worth watching.

Don't watch it for the voice over watch it for the footage .

It is a good lesson

Climate change is a fact, you'd have to be a complete and utter moron not to realize this.

the_opposite · 16-11-2011, 12:22 AM

Some scientists claim global warming / climate change is man made. Other say the opposite. I remember seeing a documentary on the BBC about climate change which was so completely biased towards the 'we cause it' camp I could barely watch it.

I haven't seen this Frozen Planet, but I can only imagine how biased it will be. I don't blame anyone for refusing to watch a BBC documentary on the subject.

it hardly mentions climate change (unless I've gone deaf to the mention of it)

The programme is not biased , it doesn't have an agenda from what I saw of it

change is a constant..thats the fact..
the climate would be changing with or without humans being here..

If anything, it goes againsed it, showing the thawing and re-freezing in the natural cycle. Of course, in most global warming bullshit news reports they use the thawing out footage to fool us into thinking the ice caps are melting, ignoring the fact that they freeze up again later in the year.
