Yet it isn’t all pretty pictures – along with the new kit comes a new way of thinking. One cameraman discovered that Peruvian vampire bats, distracted from their pursuit of fur seal pups, are more than happy to snack on naturalists. The show contains more than enough tales of daring to satisfy traditionalists. Night on Earth’s digital clean-up of regular night-vision footage has to be seen to be believed. The treetops of Argentina are lit up with infrared light to capture the nocturnal lives of owl monkeys. It was created using new models of low-light devices that film in full colour and with razor-sharp clarity by moonlight. Made up of 60 separate shoots over one year in 30 different countries, the show does much more than fill in the gaps left by the Planet Earth crew.
