Those snakes were the stuff of nightmares but the photography throughout the programme was wonderful.
Yes Dermot, I agree, great commentary from David Attenborough.

Everyone in my house was shouting at the TV too.

Never heard of an aquatic iguana before yet I've never rooted for anything as much in my life!

I'm traumatised :-0 :-0

I was on the phone to my sister when that came on, we were both shouting at the baby iguanas to run, and squealing when a whole lot of snakes appeared from nowhere :-0 :-(
