Aboard OceanX research vessel the Alucia, Jennifer spent months at sea working alongside BBC’s production unit on over 70% of the sequences featured in the Deep episode, including the eye-popping brine pool “lakes” at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico and the first ever submarine dives to 3,000-feet in Antarctica.
Blue Planet II aired in over 200 countries and territories worldwide. A few highlights: it was the most-watched show in the UK in 2017, and reached over 220 million people in China, where it slowed down the internet on its release. The UK House of Parliament passed a tax on single-use plastics that name checked this series, as did the creation of a UN Panel on plastics in the ocean.
