This new series on BBC One showcases six different dinosaurs going about their daily lives before catastrophe calls.
Kirsty Wilson, the series’ showrunner, said: “Whilst the first series focused purely on the prehistoric world, we decided it was time to feature real dinosaur digs and base our VFX [visual effects] on the scientific evidence coming out of the ground today.
“But perhaps our biggest twist is that each episode focuses not on a species in general but tells the tale of a single lead character dinosaur at one of the most dramatic points in their life.

A young triceratops, in episode one of ‘Walking with Dinosaurs’ (Photo: BBC Studios/Lola Post Production)Clover was thought to only be about four years old, the size of a large dog, and in desperate need of a protector.
At 8 tonnes and nearly 9 metres in length, triceratops was the largest and most iconic of the horned dinosaurs. With two one-metre-long horns over its eyes, and a giant bony frill behind its head, it was an imposing sight.
Helen Thomas, the show’s executive producer, said: “The story of Clover is so fascinating because, like the whole series, it is based on the real finds from a unique dig site.
“But Clover’s story was something even more special – close to her dig site the team found remains of the most infamous predator of them all – T rex.”
The River Dragon

New father Sobek the Spinosaurus is the star of episode two.
The young male Spinosaurus, found in Morocco, trekked to a special stretch of river every year where enormous numbers of prehistoric sawskate fish gathered.
Bigger even than T rex, Spinosaurus was a giant predator unlike any other dinosaur because it spent most of its time in the water.
It lived in the Kem Kem, a vast river system at the edge of the Moroccan Sahara. more dangerous than any other, with an abundance of predatory dinosaurs, more than seven species of crocodile and hunting pterosaurs watching from above.

Dr Ibrahim, an anatomist and palaeontologist at the University of Portsmouth, said: “Spinosaurus is the most enigmatic and exciting dinosaur in the world right now, and we just have one skeleton of this spectacular, sail-backed, crocodile-snouted, and largely aquatic predator, hailing from an under-explored corner of the world: the Sahara.

Two young gastonia butt heads as part of a ritual to make friends (Photo: BBC Studios/Lola Post Production)George, a young gastonia, had to stay close to his parents for protection as they came face to face with a group of predatory Utahraptors, the heavyweight cousins of Velociraptor.
They were also one of the few social armoured dinosaurs known, found in bone beds of multiple young individuals. Scientists believe the juveniles grew up together, so they had safety in numbers.
Wilson, series showrunner, said: “’Band of Brothers’ is an emotional roller coaster of an episode.
The Pack

Three albertosaurus including the hero female in the middle star in episode four (Photo: BBC Studios/Lola Post Production)Rose was a member of a fearsome albertosaurus pack, a group which hunted together and formed strong bonds 71 million years ago. Rose even had a mate.
A smaller but just as deadly as their relative of T rex, albertosaurus were the speedsters of the dinosaur world, capable of reaching speeds of more than 30mph.
Rose was found in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation, Alberta, Canada, and there was one final surprise at the dig site.
Mark Powers, researcher at the University of Alberta, said: “Albertosaurus is the faster and sleeker cousin of T rex.
“No tyrannosaur has been found in such big groups as albertosaurus, making it the most likely to have lived, or at least hunted in coordinated group efforts.

A juvenile pachyrhinosaurus is shown affection by their mother (Photo: BBC Studios/Lola Post Production)Albie was a small, young pachyrhinosaurus, one of many found in the Wapiti Formation in Alberta, Canada.
Tensions would rise as the strongest bulls began to battle for their pick of their mates. One violent confrontation leads Albie to become separated from his mother.
Closely related to triceratops, pachyrhinosaurus did not have eyebrow horns.
Every single pachyrhinosaurus discovered has had different horns on their bony headdress, almost like a fingerprint.
Dr Emily Bamforth, palaeontologist and curator at the Philip J Currie Dinosaur Museum in Alberta, said: “This episode is based on fifty years of research conducted at the Pipestone Creek Pachyrhinosaurus Bonebed in north-west Alberta.
“The bone bed provides an unparalleled opportunity for palaeontologists to study growth, social structure, parental care, and behavior in a single community of dinosaur from a single point in time.”
Island of Giants

A colossal, long-necked lusotitan, known as Old Grande, is the headline act of the final episode in search of love.
Closely related to the Brachiosaurus, Old Grande roamed ancient Portugal when Europe was a series of fragmented islands.
He is the largest lusotitan and most complete set of bones ever found.
And scientists have speculated the large cavity in lusotitan’s skull, just past the nose, could have been used to inflate balloons of skin, like modern frigate birds.
This may have been Old Grande’s secret weapon to attract a mate and secure his legacy.
