Adam Walton goes behind the scenes, to find out how science and technology played a key part in the BBC television series 'Wild Isles'. The series sees Sir David Attenborough travel across Britain and Ireland, showcasing our native wildlife, and explaining the importance of our key natural habitats. Joining Adam is one of the Producers from Silverback Productions, Nick Gates. We also hear from two of the Science Advisors on the series, Ecologists from the Open University, Dr Phil Wheeler and Dr Miranda Dyson. Plus we talk to the Head of Learning & Interpretation at the National Museum of Wales, Eleri Evans, and Director of the Art Fund, Jenny Waldman, about 'The Wild Escape', a creative project allowing children to join in the conversation about biodiversity.
