Title: Chopping up natures giants on TV, what do you think?
Post by: Make it Lady on 29/06/2009 17:39:02

When I first heard they were going to chop up large, dead zoo animals on TV I felt a bit dubious. Is this going to be a sensationalist program for gore fiends or is it going to be a cracking natural history programme. I think reviews have been favorable but what do you think?

I did enjoy the series when they did the same to humans with that german-choppy-up-human bloke

Gunther von Hagens, I find him a bit weird, especially in the wrong light and that hat he's got on.

This (http://www.channel4.com/programmes/inside-natures-giants/4od#2927087) is the Channel 4 link to the programme , but I suspect it only functions in the UK.

Heres another link ... http://www.channel4.com/programmes/inside-natures-giants/articles/the-whales-evolution
