David Attenborough narrates the horniest nature doc you'll ever legally watch.
David Attenborough narrates the charming and fascinating story of some real-life animal romantics. There are show-offs and singers, dancers and fighters, stories of undercover affairs and heartwarming devotion. These include a male polar bear that plays hard to get, a lemur whose odour bags him a mate and a lizard who is tender and faithful to the very end. It reveals that animals can be loving, complex, funny and inventive - it is all part of the mating game.
Acting
Attenborough's voice could narrate paint drying.
Cinematography
Stunning close-ups of animals being absolute disasters.
Editing
Perfect comic timing on the rejection scenes.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Attenborough recorded narration for multiple mating documentaries in a single week, reportedly amused by the sheer absurdity of bird courtship dances.
This 2013 release helped cement the 'nature doc as soap opera' trend that Netflix later exploited with series like 'Our Planet' and 'Tiny Creatures.'
