Steve Backshall and Michaela Strachan explore the Ice Age like never before, witnessing the majestic rise of colossal creatures such as the woolly mammoth and the sabre-toothed cat.

In Svalbard, Michaela braves the icy conditions to investigate the origins of the Ice Age, while Steve, accompanied by Professor Danielle Schreve in the UK, examines various Ice Age fossils, including a mammoth and arctic foxes. Danielle reveals an astonishing find: the remains of nearly a dozen Ice Age animals discovered in a small cave near Plymouth.
