The documentary follows wildlife throughout autumn, when the fading sun brings a change of energy to the landscape, while creatures prepare for shorter, darker days. Sika deer stags battle for supremacy, dormice curl up for their winter snooze, barnacle geese arrive from the Arctic and baby seals face the tempestuous waves, while salmon complete their epic journey to spawn before they die. By December, birds huddle together as the first snowflakes fall, and the seasonal cycle begins again. Narrated by Joseph Fiennes
