BBC premiers African documentary
Category: Uncategorized | Date: Mar 12 2008 | By: admin
I have just heard that my good friend Saba Douglas-Hamilton, another crazy Kenyan, a presenter for Big Cat Diary is in a new BBC feature called Unknown Africa that may be of interest.
In search of unusual wildlife, Saba sets out to explore the least known parts of her home continent in a new series, “Unknown Africa“, that premiers tonight on BBC 2 at 8 p.m. Starting with a jurassic haven of pterodactyl-like bats and prehistoric fossil fish in the coup-stricken Comoros archipelago, her next stop is amongst the bubble-blowing forest elephants and lowland gorillas of the humid Central African Republic.
In the final episode, whilst en route back from a remote island she and her crew find themselves cast adrift off the desert coast of war-shattered Angola.
Showing on BBC 2 this week and next. Sadly for most us in Africa we may only get to see the YouTube previews!
Monday 10th March at 8 p.m. - Comoros Monday 17th March at 8 p.m. - Central African Republic
Friday 21st March at 8 p.m. - Angola

I see here show on National Geographic channel alot. Wasn’t it Saba that actually followed the Lioness that adopted the oryx. That was an amazing story. And she just did a wonderful feature on rhinos and a meeting place they venture to at night. The night camera she had was fantastic. She was out there all by herself and the only protection she had was a dead tree. There were rhinos on all sides of her. It was really something. She is very brave and I like her work very much. Lisa

Hi Lisa, yes it’s the very same Saba. She’s the maddest person I know and love!
