The series will comprise five 50-minute programmes, each one followed by Under the Skin, a 10-minute section that will feature Attenborough interviewing the scientists whose groundbreaking work has led to the sequences included in the main programme. It will also examine the challenges faced by the crew and reveal some of the techniques used to film the series.[citation needed]

There are to be five episodes.

Episode One - The first episode will discuss the keys to the success of the reptiles and amphibians, looking at thermoregulation, parental care and the timescales on which reptiles operate.
Episode Two - The second episode explores the world of amphibians — from the crocodilian-like wrestling of the Japanese Giant Salamander to the 'semaphore' used by the Golden Panama Frog (Atelopus Zeteki).
Episode Three - The third episode takes a look at the immense diversity, social skills and displays of the lizards.
Episode Four - The fourth episode will look at the most modern reptiles, the snakes, exploring how they have managed to become so successful despite their elongated body plan and lack of limbs. It includes what is thought to be the first recorded predation by a wild rattlesnake in any documentary.
Episode Five - The final episode covers the most ancient of the reptiles: the crocodiles and turtles.
