EXCUSE ME WE SENT WHO WHERE FOR WHAT?????
I need more of this, give me Helen Mirren’s Crazy Madagascar Antics and Joan Plowright’s Tibetan Trek and Eileen Atkins in the Atacama .
Ok I am starting this show. Episode one. Within thirty seconds we learn that Dame Judi Dench loves nature, plants trees, and has adopted three orangutans in Borneo. That’s why she’s going to Borneo!! To see her orangutan children!
I just keep laughing at the idea that she just keeps calling and being like “Yes but when will I get to meet the orangutans?” and everyone at the agency was like “no one has ever ... asked? I guess we could do it?”
Omg she just made an orangutan sound and now she’s trying to call to the orangutans using the “move out of the way other males and females come here” call.
“So it’s potentially a huge effect. So, you know, just this orangutan up here, sitting in the tree, munching on fruits, and pooping them out could be affecting the global climate.” - Naturalist to Dame Judy Dench.

You guys by proxy Dame Judy Dench is literally saving the Earth.
I don’t know what to say other than that a very hot bug scientist is talking to Dame Judy Dench about night bugs and I think we need to spend more time with him.
“He’s quite strong!” - Dame Judy Dench, being delighted by a dung beetle in her hands.
They! Are! Hoisting! Dame! Judy! Dench! 250 feet! Into the canopy! ON ROPES!
Hold on, how long has her name been spelled Dame Judi Dench?
Biologist: Is this the first time you’ve held a snake?

Most people: No, my friend had a pet snake in middle school.

Dame Judi Dench: No, because we had real snakes in “Antony & Cleopatra.”
