The show, to be shown in 2017, will be called The Dales and Moors: A Year in the Wild, and will record the lives of the animals that live there. Remote cameras will film inside nests, while drones, cranes and tracking time-lapses will show off the landscape. The channel will also show a docu-drama about Queen Elizabeth I which will contrast the monarch’s point of view with those of her enemies.
