		</div><p>The BBC’s new natural history series kicks off with a first episode on the “frozen wilderness” of Antarctica.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>Humpback whales, albatross chicks and Weddell seals are all captured on camera in breathtaking scenes.</p>
<p>But the episode also captures the impact of global warming, with glaciers in the remote continent “carving faster than they have done since records began”.</p>

<p>Producer Fredi Devas said: “Even though it’s very remote, the wildlife there is not safe from the pressures of humanity.”</p>
<p>The seven-part series, fronted by David Attenborough, will also turn its lens on North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia.</p>
<p>Here are some images and behind-the-scenes images from the first BBC One episode:</p>

<p>A specialist cameraman was “able to inch closer to the birds each day to make sure he didn’t disturb the chicks in any way… The birds were so relaxed in his company one of the adults fell asleep on his lens,” filmmakers said.</p>
<p>Seven Worlds, One Planet begins on Sunday October 27 at 6.15pm on BBC One.</p>
