It's been 10 years since Sir David Attenborough narrated the BBC's groundbreaking Planet Earth.
Now, the 90-year-old broadcaster has returned for a six-part follow up series!
The six episodes were shot over three years in 117 filming trips to 40 countries, so we're sure it will be worth the wait.
Don't believe us?
Here's what Sir David Attenborough himself had to say to the Telegraph:Â
"It's very important that television should every now again take a very in depth view of something.
"There is nothing more important as far as I am concerned. It is incredible. It's great stories. It's important stories, it's stories that take time and devotion.
"50 years ago there is hardly a species on Planet Earth II that anyone would have seen. They wouldn't know about fairy terns or sloths. And now everyone knows and it is remarkable."
We can't wait!Â
