The Dance for Love

Steve Backshall, wildlife expert and recent star of Strictly, explores the moves animals make in pursuit of romance. From soliciting that first amorous glance to seeing off the competition, and of course the final act of seduction. The colourful cast of would-be lovers include beautiful birds of paradise strutting their stuff to Tom Jones, Ed Sheeran and Michael Jackson, ring-tailed lemurs flirting outrageously to Rizzle Kicks by waving their striking striped tails at the girls, and the tiny brown banana frog using martial arts to see off the competition, all in time to the 1970s hit Kung Fu Fighting.

The Dance for Life

With music from favourites like Olly Murs, Meghan Trainor and the Bee Gees, we see lemurs ballet dancing and shrews doing the conga to get around, humpback whales performing a tightly synchronised routine to get a meal, and daredevil toads turning themselves into rubber balls and hurling themselves off cliffs to escape from predators.
