Nick Percy, President, Global Markets, BBC Studios, said: “The quality, care, craft and innovation which goes into making our content is unparalleled. This is certainly the case with Big Cats 24/7 from our world-renowned Natural History Unit. 

“The team spent six months living with and following these celebrated animals from the ground, the air and through the night and were able to capture previously unseen behaviour in incredible locations.

“We are thrilled that our customers around the world want to share this with their audiences.”
