DESCRIPTION:"For me\, wildlife cameramen don’t come much more special th
 an Doug. He seems to be immune to most of the limitations that govern othe
 r humans. Furthermore he is totally without fear in a way that comes not f
 rom recklessness but from a deep knowledge and experience. There’s just 
 no one else who knows these frozen worlds as he does” Sir David Attenbor
 ough.\n\nDoug Allan is a world renowned documentary film maker and photogr
 apher\, best known for his work in cold\, wild\, and remote places on land
 mark BBC wildlife documentaries such as Frozen Planet and Planet Earth 2.\
 n\nHow do you get up close and personal with polar bears without being eat
 en? Or make sure you don't lose that important dive hole filming seals und
 er the ice? Can you really talk to whales? What’s the key to camerawork 
 at 7500m on Everest? Do wildlife programmes ever contribute to scientific 
 discoveries? Doug has witnessed first hand how climate change is affecting
  both poles - is there still time to turn the tide? Or are the big glossy 
 wildlife docs just adding to the problem?\n\nThe talk is free\, but Doug w
 ill be selling copies of his book\, Freeze Frame\, at the end\, for £25.
