7.45pm
BBC presenter Paul Rose talks about a lifetime of remarkable adventures from Antarctica to Everest via the planet’s last true remaining wilderness, her vast oceans.
A professional diver, polar explorer, mountaineer and yachtsman, Paul is best known for his BBC documentaries Voyages of Discovery, Oceans and Britain’s Secret Seas. From climbing Antarctica's most active volcano to retracing the voyages of pioneers Captain Cook and Ferdinand Magellan, Paul’s adventures have taken him all over our planet. He spent 10 years working for the British Antarctic Survey, regularly leads expeditions across the Greenland Icecap and has made some of the most challenging dives in the world.
In Explore, Paul uses behind the scenes stories and footage from his television programmes to inspire the audience with his spirit of adventure and his passion for the environment. Paul asks the question “Why Explore?” and then makes everyone want to be explorers.
