Dawn of the Dinosaurs

Season 1 Episode 1 of 4

The actor and writer is magically transported back in time to chart the 180-million-year story of the prehistoric creatures, beginning by going back 155 million years to the Jurassic period. He explores the conifer forests and fern prairies that were their home, encountering a monstrous plant-eating diplodocus and deadly predator the allosaurus. Expert Susie Maidment arrives to decode these dinosaurs' remarkable behaviour, including the diplodocus's acrobatic ability to rear up on its hind legs and the allosaurus's terrifying attack strategy

Dinosaur with Stephen Fry airs on 5 at 9:15 AM, Saturday 18 October. (Subtitles, repeat.)
