FROM THE BBC TO JUNCTION

Ben Osborne brings PLANET EARTH to Goole

This week, Junction continue their working relationship withArtERY on Wednesday (3rd Feb) with a new show by Ben Osborne. In Dog Days, Lion Nights we are taken“behind-the-scenes” on two filming expeditions to northern Botswanawith the BBC natural history series "Planet Earth". Starting with theOkavango Delta, Ben tells the story of how the team spent weeks on the trail ofone of Africa’s rarest large predators,the African Hunting Dog. In the second expedition, the crew found themselves inSavuti, a dry savannah region, where Ben and the team followed a pride of lionsday and night for a month - with dramatic, and occasionally unpredictable,consequences.

Audio-visual sequences, featuring music by the Soweto StringQuartet, celebrate the stunning wildlife and landscapes of the Okavango Deltaand provide a close-up view of the animals which struggle to survive in theparched landscape of Savuti.

A tie-in photography workshop will take place on Saturday 6thFeb, and will include a discussion of wildlife & landscape photographytechniques based on some of Ben's images from around the world. Call the boxoffice for more information (01405 763652).
