THE BBC have released a first-look at one of its most iconic series which is finally making a comeback after 25 years.
Walking with Dinosaurs is being revived for a brand new six-part series almost a quarter of a century on from its premiere.
The natural history series will follow a different story each episode and focus in on a different dinosaur each time.
The world’s leading dinosaur hunters will continue to investigate the remains of various different pre-historic creatures in a bid to learn and find out more about them.
Using new state-of-the-art technology, the dinosaurs will be brought to life with viewers able to see how they likely moved and interacted for the very first time.
In new first-look images, the dinosaurs can be seen for the first time.
One appears to show an Albertosaurus – a relative of the T-Rex, as well as a Pachyrhinosaurus – a relative of the plant-eating Triceratops..
In another tender image, a baby pachyrhinosaurus nuzzles its mother in a heart-warming image.
Speaking about reviving the programme for the first time since 1999, Jack Bootle, the BBC’s Head of Commissioning for Specialist Factual, said: “A whole new generation of viewers is about to fall in love with Walking With Dinosaurs.
“The original series was one of the most exciting factual shows of all time, and this reinvention builds on that amazing legacy.
“Each episode is underpinned by the very latest science but is also filled with drama – making this a series for both dino lovers and people who just want to be told a great story.”
Whilst Andrew Cohen, the head of BBC Studios’ Science Unit, added: “There is no bigger science series than Walking with Dinosaurs and we are incredibly excited to be bringing this much-loved brand to a whole new generation of audiences around the world.
