Amazon.co.uk Review:
Billed as the last in David Attenborough's series of Life nature documentaries, Life In Cold Blood leaves you dearly hoping that proves not to be the case. For once more, as he has done many times in his distinguished career, Attenborough gently - and unobtrusively - delivers an utterly fascinating insight into the world in which we live.
The focus of Life In Cold Blood is on reptiles and amphibians, bringing into focus a series of creatures very much of all shapes and sizes. Across the episodes that make up the series - all of which are contained in this DVD set - the programme makers delve into the lives and mannerisms of its subjects. They do so with some quite stunning camera work, bringing to our screens things that have quite simply never been seen before.
As much as perhaps we shouldn't take for granted the heights that Attenborough's work easily scales, Life In Cold Blood happily matches the standards of his earlier series. Often genuinely jaw-dropping, and never less than completely absorbing, the DVD set is rounded off with some equally intriguing extra features that delve into the complex production of the programme itself.
If Life In Cold Blood really does bring the Life series to an end, then it's even more reason to cherish it. Even without such emotive reasons, this is nonetheless an extraordinary series, that'll make you look at snakes, frogs, crocodiles and turtles in very different ways. Unmissable. --Simon Brew

- The wonders of cold blooded species
For some reason I enjoyed this series far more the second time around. As is usual with more recent BBC wildlife series, the actual camera work is visually stunning. Shots are posed for effect and I spent most of the time wishing for a bigger screen than my poor old CRT telly.
As most of the stars of the film are slower moving than the usual subjects of current wildlife documentaries, it was a pleasure to see David Attenborough daring to handle snakes, frogs and lizards, annoy nesting ... Read More
Rating: - Very interesting but not as good as planet earth
It took many hours of research to produce this new BBC series about reptiles and amphibians.
The aim was to probe that this animals are not boring or charmless.The series has some FANTASTIC shots in particular the shots of the golden frog in panama are highly interesting and achieves the aim of making the animals look very intelligent.
However the series can become repetitive and borrows shots from Planet earth ( flat lizards ) and most of the shots have been done before or ... Read More
Rating: - Please stay on our screen's David!
Life in Cold Blood has been absolutely fascinating. Shot using the latest HD (High Definition) Camera's, all the images are completly crystal clear and good enough to spring out of the TV. The footage contained spans from the emotional to the satisfyingly funny and cute moments to which our friends do odd things. That said, it can leave you on the edge of your seat when you discover the struggle for a male and female Marine Turtle to mate, as does the agonising journey's many of these incredible creature ...

Rating: - Beauty of the Beasts.
When I was little, I was mesmerised by David Attenborough's wildlife documentaries. And now twenty years on I still absolutely love them.
The passion of the man and the team he works with is more than apparent, especially when in the additional features you see what lengths they go to, to bring you maybe a just a few seconds of stunning footage.
Whether you're a reptile fan, or whether you can't stand them - this series will highlight the variety and complexity of these creatures. ... Read More
Rating: - Reptiles come alive on another excellent BBC DVD
Life in Cold Blood is another sterling wildlife series from the BBC, presented with warmth and authority by veteran naturalist David Attenborough. This DVD set contains all the core episodes plus a variety of additional, behind-the-scenes material, to run to over five hours. The photography is beautiful and the reptilian subject matter is intricately examined and explained for al to understand. It's an excellent teaching tool while at the same time providing colourful entertainment for anyone with a vague interest ... Read More
