The graphics are astonishing. The details glossed and prettied up to appeal to a mass audience. The sheer amount of resources devoted to transporting people around the planet are breathtakingly unsustainable in the long term.

Visually it was a most attractive programme, but it disguised the horrible amounts of pollution and waste being generated, and I love aviation and anything to do with aircraft.

Certainly worth a watch.

The tyre freezing problems in Siberia are more likely to be related to the tyres freezing to the ground and becoming immobilised rather than just the low temperature to which the tyres are exposed.
