We've reached the end of Series 3! It's been a series of new
discoveries, awe-inspiring moments, tear-jerkers and revelations.

In the final episode of the series, we are telling stories about
the senses. We begin by meeting Sy Montgomery, who built a bond
with an eight limbed friend through touch. Octopi have the unique
ability to taste what they are touching using the suction cups on
their tentacles; some are more sensitive than others and it
became clear to Sy that a friendship had been born. Hear from
legendary composer, Hans Zimmer, as he describes the process of
composing for natural history documentaries - such as Seven
Worlds, One Planet - and how these thought provoking series
differs from his work on iconic, blockbuster movie soundtracks.
In this episode we also tell the story of Bernie Krause who is a
"soundscape ecologist", responsible for tracking and recording
the sounds of our planet which are rapidly vanishing.
