Eynsham Red Nov 2019 5:41pm, 4 Nov 2019 4,874 posts	Quote Pin Eynsham Red The biggest disappointment for me about this series were the promo features showing how some parts were filmed using green screen and CGI. I know that a lot of this is computer generated, I’m not naive enough to believe otherwise, but I don’t want to be reminded that it’s not real. I went off Murder In Paradise when I learned that the tame gecko was CGI 🙁

larkim Nov 2019 7:29pm, 4 Nov 2019 9,379 posts	Quote Pin larkim But it's not quite as formulaic as New Tricks, which my offspring quite unreasonably enjoy nearly as much as Death in Paradise. Anyway, back to HDM...
Wriggling Snake Nov 2019 9:59pm, 4 Nov 2019 24,529 posts	Quote Pin Wriggling Snake I can't stand any 'how we did this' stuff on any program, but especially wildlife, I am seriously not interested, show me some more stuff of the animals, and always seems to me an exercise in elongating screen time. Everything, almost everything is CGI trickery, so why bother showing me, not interested, stop it, or put it in a program I can ignore.
