The Seychelles are among the dream islands of the Indian Ocean. Tropical beaches are framed by striking granite boulders, and they are home to one of nature's most remarkable plants: the coco de mer palm, which produces the world's largest seed, weighing up to 30 kilograms. On the northernmost island of the archipelago, more than 1.5 million sooty terns gather to breed. Beneath the waves, the three-spot damselfish displays an extraordinary behaviour, carefully cultivating and defending its own algae garden.

Yet even this tropical paradise faces challenges. Large areas of the Seychelles' once extensive mangrove forests have been destroyed. These vital “water forests” play a crucial role in protecting coastlines from erosion and rising seas.

The North Sea and Baltic Sea may seem familiar to us, yet they still hold many secrets. From the deep waters of Norway's fjords to the Wadden Sea, and from the Shetland Islands to the coast of Normandy, remarkable dramas unfold both above and below the surface.

Orcas hunt grey seals, while a small catshark encounters its most dangerous predator. Seahorses perform their graceful courtship dances, and powerful seal bulls battle for dominance along the shoreline. The documentary series reveals not only the beauty and diversity of Our Seas, but also their fragility and the challenges they face in a rapidly changing world.

Everyone thinks they know one of our forest's most elusive inhabitants—the badger. Yet few people ever catch a glimpse of it. As a nocturnal hunter, it spends most of the day hidden underground.

The film follows a female badger and her two cubs. Still unsteady on his feet, one of the youngsters ventures out of the sett for the first time, exposing himself to unexpected dangers. In a neighbouring territory, an adult male lives alongside several females and their offspring. Within such a clan, strong family bonds connect the animals.

Far from their reputation as grumpy loners, badgers are highly social creatures. Through intimate wildlife sequences, the documentary offers a rare insight into the hidden lives of one of Europe's most fascinating mammals.
