Hamza Yassin embarks on a summer adventure to uncover the UK’s most surprising and spectacular wildlife. His journey takes him from the open ocean of the Irish Sea to the urban heart of Leeds, and finally back to his remote home on Scotland’s west coast, revealing incredible creatures living right on our doorstep.
The expedition brings him face-to-face with a two-metre blue shark and a pod of common dolphins. He also discovers something truly remarkable: a colony of wild beavers, an animal that has been missing from Britain’s rivers for 400 years. This is a quest to find the hidden wildlife that thrives during the British summer, proving you do not have to travel far to find extraordinary nature.
Hamza’s Hidden Wild Isles airs Sunday October 19, at 6:15pm on BBC One.
