Shaped by a series of collisions, mountain ranges have been pushed up, valleys created and a once great ocean has come and gone. Ep3 - The Americas From the bedrock the Empire State Building is built on, to the Spanish empires in South America, the two land masses of North and South America are linked by geology and history. Ep4 - Australia Australia was once part of a super-continent and its deserts were covered in forests.

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
faaus72 This fine series is a fascinating look into the shaping and adaptation of our world...all of it! Our guide is a very coherent Geologist, who tells the stories of the history and Future of the planet. He does so in a captivating, logical and brilliant manner, highlighted by a pleasant Scottish burr.So much more than simply Geology is explained. Rather flora and fauna and the effects that earth-events had on them is made clear.This is a treat for all the senses!
