Have 75 years of television made us smarter?

A curious phenomenon is occurring each Wednesday. The BBC is receiving a lot of love. Well, to be specific, David Attenborough’s current series is. Frozen Planet is so beautifully put together, so moving, so informative, that even those cynical journalists who routinely abuse the BBC on behalf of their paymasters for the simple reason their products are in direct competition with it are eagerly embracing the brilliance of this programme.”

Frozen Planet

 
This is Frozen Planet, which I was working for a while there..
Should be going out on BBC One soon (Oct?).
I was taking and interpreting data from NASA and commercial satellite scans and turning them into accurate, explanatory yet aesthetically pleasing globe views.
I was assisted in the task by the excellent Jessica Lee.
There is one at the front of this trailer there, but it has been compressed to **** on the YouTubes, there are at least another 6 million shades of snow in there on the full HD version.
(All the animals are real, btw.)
