Doug Allan, Wildlife Cameraman
I recently spent two years in the Arctic filming the series Blue Planet. I love being in an environment
that hasn’t changed for 20,000 years. Of course it’s freezing, but it must be a healthy place because you
never catch colds.
When I am filming, I like to really feel how lonely the environment is. Filming underwater involves
cutting through thick ice and diving in tied to a line. The person at the other end has to be ready to pull
you out fast if necessary.
Originally I was a research diver for the British Antarctic Survey project, but for me science lacked
excitement. I’d always enjoy photography, and whenever camera teams passed through, they
encouraged me to watch and learn. I was then able to move into filming in 1985 and have concentrated
on Arctic and Antarctic wildlife ever since.
I prefer to be face to face with the animals I’m filming. I haven’t got in the water with killer whales
yet, but I plan to. Of course, it’s dangerous if you choose the wrong moment. They’re big animals and
can move fast, so I’d be stupid to film them searching for food!

I’ve never had problems with polar bears, although once I was frightened when one tried to get into my
tent. Polar bears are bold, clever and dangerous. But I made this one see I wasn’t about to attack it -

When I come back home from my trips, I work in the mornings and spend the afternoons swimming to
keep fit. Now I’m fifty, filming is harder. The challenge for me is to continue to deliver high-quality
work.

Perhaps they aren’t the most beautiful animals in the world… but in the hot lands of North Africa and
the Middle East they are certainly one of the most useful. But how much do you know about camels?
Camels normally live for about 40 years - but they usually stop working when they are about 25.
Camels don’t normally like running - It’s too hot - but when they need to, they can run at 20 kilometers
an hour. The dromedary, or Arabian camel has one hump. The Bactrian, or Asian camel, has longer
hair and has got two humps. There are about 14 million camels in the world, and most of them are
dromedaries.
An adult camel is about 2.1 meters tall and weighs about 500 kilos. Camels can walk for more than 600
kilometers without drinking. They only need to drink water every six or eight days. But when there is
water, they can drink up to 90 liters.
