Europe from Above: Norway- This spectacular aerial journey reveals Norway as it’s never been seen before. Flying cameras uncover the engineering behind the world’s longest deep-sea cable, soar above arctic huskies as they cross frozen lakes and capture Norway’s luckiest postman on his stunning island-hopping route. Alongside the vast and rugged landscape carved out by ancient glaciers, we’ll uncover the ground-breaking architecture that’s transforming Oslo’s waterfront.
Europe from Above: Croatia- A unique aerial tour of Croatia - a place where natural wonders and historic landmarks sit side-by-side. Drone photography reveals the truth behind the remarkable preservation of a 2,000-year-old Roman amphitheatre. The cameras fly with climbers making high-risk repairs to the legendary climbing walls of Paklenica National Park. And they join a team of conservationists searching for eagles in the expansive floodplains of the Sava river.

Flying cameras uncover the technology buried behind one of Europe’s most high-tech sports pitches, soar above the dramatic spectacle of Dublin’s Deer Rut, and follow a team saving Ireland’s protected grey seals. Alongside the rugged west coast and fractured islands, we’ll uncover the engineering accomplishments that are updating Ireland’s rural countryside.
