Fossil Detectives S01E02 - London

Hermione Cockburn visits the London home of David Attenborough to view his private fossil collection and find out why fossils have held such a special place in his heart since his childhood.

The fossil detective team also track down evidence of the capital's ancient past, a lost world where hippos were common. They take a trip to Kew Gardens to see living fossils - plants which existed in prehistoric times and still thrive today.
