Frozen Planet is a 2011 British nature documentary series. BBC and The Open University co-produced the series. BBC Natural History Unit filmed the series. The production team includes executive producer Alastair Fothergill and series producer Vanessa Berlowitz. They were previously responsible for the award-winning series The Blue Planet (2001) and Planet Earth (2006), and Frozen Planet is billed as a sequel of sorts. David Attenborough returns as narrator. It is distributed under license by the BBC in other countries, Discovery Channel for North America, ZDF for Germany, Antena 3 for Spain and Skai TV for Greece.
Whilst the series was broadcast in full in the UK, the BBC chose to make the series’ seventh episode. This episode focuses on climate change, optional for syndication in order to aid sales of the show in countries where the issue is politically sensitive. The US Discovery Channel originally announced that they would air only the first six episodes of the show, but they later added the seventh episode to their schedule.
In 2012, the US broadcast won four Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Nonfiction Series.
