Serengeti (TVNZ OnDemand)
As narrator, John Boyega (Finn) brings no little gravitas to this stunning documentary series about the wildlife of Africa's Serengeti and their daily battle for survival. It was shot using innovative camera techniques, such as drones and spy cameras, to immerse the audience in the action. Often the cameras were just a whisker away from their subjects. All six episodes streaming on TVNZ OnDemand now.
