Britain is a place of remarkable beauty and surprising extremes: nowhere else in the temperate world boasts such extreme variety in such a small area. The humble island has more than 10,000 miles of coastline, iconic animals and birds, and unique spectacles of migration that see wildlife from all corners of the globe descend upon its shores. Life is governed by the seasons: each month bringing extraordinary transformations to the land and its inhabitants. This lavish companion to the BBC One series brings Britain to life, celebrating the vibrancy of the changing year through stunning photography and mesmerizing time-lapse sequences, revealing unmissable drama and beauty.
