Los planetas

It is bold, it is ambitious, it is utterly spectacular but also, it is smart. I've heard explanations I'd never heard before about our Solar System. Frankly, I've never known (them) despite watching documentaries about space for decades. It gives you a unique perspective. Also, Brian is a 15 out of 10 presenter, engaging and as simple as a friend. All in all, it's going to be one of the best science series of the year.

A spectacular show made for a world that has forgotten how to dream. The effects and music are masterfully interwoven. The narration perfectly succinct and elevated.

This show is made to leave you in awe. It all feels natural, not dramatised and out of context.

Next year should be about habitable exoplanets, binary star systems and planets caught in the firing range of supernova and neutron stars.

Professor Brian Cox is the David Attenborough of scientific programmes. He brings a wealth of knowledge to any media he is involved in, not least The Planets, which is a masterpiece of television.

The story-telling and graphical representation is fantastic. Each episode seems to outdo its predecessor.

If astronomy is your thing, or you simply to want to learn more about our solar system, I implore you to watch this series.

This a TV serie that every human being should see.

Epic! What a journey! We've learned so much in such a short period of time. I keep thinking back to my time in secondary school learning about the solar system and what we knew then compared to now is absolutely mind blowing! The production, music, editing and special effects really make you feel you're there. But Brian Cox is the star of the show, his delivery and narration is 10/10. If you like Planet Earth but are longing for something a little more extraterrestrial, look no further. The Planets will not disappoint.
