From the producer:

SERIES DESCRIPTION: With an unprecedented production budget of $25 million, and from the makers of Blue Planet: Seas of Life, comes the epic story of life on Earth. Five years in production, over 2,000 days in the field, using 40 cameramen filming across 200 locations, shot entirely in high definition, this is the ultimate portrait of our planet. A stunning television experience that captures rare action, impossible locations and intimate moments with our planet's best-loved, wildest and most elusive creatures. From the highest mountains to the deepest rivers, this blockbuster series takes you on an unforgettable journey through the daily struggle for survival in Earth's most extreme habitats. Planet Earth takes you to places you have never seen before, to experience sights and sounds you may never experience anywhere else.

IN THIS EPISODE: This edition looks at deserts, which cover a third of the earth's land surface. From space they appear lifeless but a closer look reveals a different picture.

Deserts are in fact surprisingly varied; from Mongolia's Gobi desert, where wild Bactrian camels have to eat snow in lieu of water, to the Atacama in Chile where guanacos survive by licking the dew off cactus spines. Changes are rare in deserts but they play a crucial part in their story; from Saharan sandstorms nearly a mile high to desert rivers that run for a single day; from the brief blooming of Death Valley in the USA, to a plague of desert locusts 40 miles wide and 100 miles long - two events that might occur once in 30 years.

This episode includes a unique aerial voyage over the dunes and rocky escarpments of a Namibian desert. From this lofty viewpoint, the camera follows elephants on a desperate trek for food and desert lions searching the wilderness for wandering bands of oryx.

This program unravels the secrets behind desert survival and reveals the ephemeral nature of this stunning environment.
