Wonders of the Solar System, Series 1

In this one, Cox comes across as passionate and keen to explain. It was, for him, but a short journey towards patronising and drowned out by special effects (wonders of the universe). This one was excerpt however, and the guy does have talent. Shame about the follow-up...

Prof. Brian Cox's enthusiasm for discovery and astronomy is infectious. I would certainly recommend this series to anyone. I will shorty be purchasing the second series "Wonders of the Universe" as I watched that on tv an it was also a great series. I am looking forward to any future series too. Just to add - the soundtrack of this series is fantastic too. I would give this 10 stars if I could.

An absolutely excellent programme, the quality of the filming and CG is outstanding, and Brian Cox makes everything easy to understand, yet he addresses some of the most important aspects of our Solar System. incredible, I highly recommend.

Thank you thank you and thank you! I don't think I have ever seen a better series about space and our solar system than this one. Professor Cox is amazing! Please keep it up.... I enjoyed it so much!

I love these series; first of all the sheer fascination-there was so much that I never knew, there is also some amazing good quality pictures. Brian cox presents it so well and is very inspiring. I would recommend this to anyone!

I love Pro Cox he is inspiring.

This is simply the best, most fascinating series of programmes I have ever watched.

Amazing!! Honestly a must watch . . .

An absolutely brilliant series looking at the Solar System. Truly fascinating and very well presented! Well worth a watch!

Firstly, if you aren't interested in science, you should try to watch this, becuase it will get you gripped within minutes! If you know you arent that clever, this is perfect - the way Brian Cox describes everything (e.g. how Saturn and Jupiter affected life on Earth) makes it sound so very simple, like ABC! If you are totally into this subject, I think it is also amazing with its shots of this solar system and our world, and how he connects everything in the solar system to something on earth (e.g. the rocks in saturn's ring with a lagoon far north and its ice). It is very interesting indeed and 5 hours of science is sure to get other youngsters, such as myself, into science. Fantastic buy.
