Amazing Journeys takes audiences on six extraordinary journeys of survival and migration. Depicting migration as an endless search for the best conditions in which to thrive and successfully adapt, the film explores the wonders and mysteries surrounding some of earth's most spectacular wildlife and native people.
Witness the mysterious migration of more than 120 million red crabs on tiny Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean. In order to to mate and spawn, millions of crabs must scuttle through the island's only town to reach its shores. Female crabs are unable to swim, yet march bravely to the shore's edge to release their eggs. Watch as so many crabs skitter sideways that the land itself seems to pulsate and quiver.

Coast, continues to explore the edge of our lives, the coastline that marries us to the sea. Through a history of assault from Nazi Germany, freshwater voles and the infamous Guernsey Privateers; the workers’ coast of shipbuilders, fishermen and seaside entertainers; the joys of sunbathing and the history of Thomas Cook; the magnificent estuaries of the Firth of Forth, the Severn and the Thames; this is the history of Britain as told from cliff to sea.
