Rex Review:
Hard-hitting but not without hope, this is David Attenborough’s most urgent and personal documentary in years, a breathtaking wake-up call that demands to be seen.
Leaving behind the BBC, Attenborough pulls no punches as he takes aim at the industrial fishing giants devastating marine ecosystems. With trademark clarity and compassion, he guides us through the wonders of the deep, from shimmering coral reefs to towering undersea mountain ranges, revealing a world of staggering beauty and biodiversity.
But this is also a departure. Gone are the gentle narratives of survival and family. Instead, awe-inspiring visuals are paired with with sharp, unflinching truths. When the camera shifts from thriving habitats to the mechanical devastation of trawlers, the contrast is gut-wrenching.
Attenborough avoids vague calls to recycle and instead squarely blames governments and corporations for ocean collapse. Yet, amid the anger, hope flickers. Marine life rebounds when given space. Real change is possible, he insists, and urgently needed.
Attenborough’s deep well of experience, emotional candour, and unmistakable voice make Ocean not just essential viewing, but a powerful, rallying cry. At 97, he is still showing us the world and, crucially, how to save it.

Parking in Berkhamsted is very difficult but there is road parking along Three Close Lane. Please allow time to find somewhere to park. We meet between (or near to) the two doors in the bar.
