With spectacular polar landscapes and amazing animal behaviour, often filmed for the first time, Frozen Planet captures the drama of an extreme natural world

It remains one of the most extraordinary natural history programmes ever made. Sir David Attenborough’s landmark Frozen Planet series stunned and amazed us all with astonishing footage of the frozen wildernesses of the Arctic and Antarctic.

Ambitious and epic in scale, Frozen Planet captures all the jaw-dropping beauty of these hostile and little-known regions as well as the awe-inspiring power of the elements. Yet these harsh environments are teeming with life - from polar bears, reindeer, seals and killer whales to Arctic wolves.


Unforgettable: Re-live the amazing imagery from the BBC's Frozen Planet series with these incredible posters. This incredible picture shows a female polar bear with her two cubs

Majestic: A great grey owl is captured in flight. So reclusive that it is often referred to as the 'Great Grey Ghost' or 'Phantom of the North', it is one of the largest owls in the world with a wingspan of between four and five feet

Who can forget the incredible photography that made the series such a worldwide success? The images of penguins cavorting in caves, pods of Orca whales emerging through the ice, of dazzling blue meltwater lakes that form and disappear within days, and astonishing footage from below the ice, where tiny fish have natural antifreeze in their blood.

Now the Mail gives you the opportunity to collect a series of posters featuring remarkable stills from Frozen Planet, absolutely free.

The first poster, included in Saturday’s Daily Mail, is a stunning image of an adult polar bear with two young cubs. Inside every copy of this weekend’s Mail on Sunday is a poster featuring a great grey owl in flight.

So reclusive that it is often referred to as the ‘Great Grey Ghost’ or Phantom of the North, the great grey is one of the largest owls in the world, with a wingspan of between four and five feet. Unlike dark-eyed nocturnal owls, it has distinctive piercing eyes, which may be an adaptation to hunting by day.

Get another poster in Monday’s Daily Mail - and a new one every day until next Friday. Once you have completed your collection, they combine to make a super-sized breath-taking image on the reverse.

Frozen Planet is now available on DVD and Blu-ray through BBC Worldwide, featuring stunning scenes of the lives of these extraordinary creatures throughout the seasons as they struggle to survive.
