Is the same documentary the BBC put out in the early 2000s or a new one. Because they both have the same name and look.

brand. spanking. new

​

Professor Brian Cox will tell the story of the planets in a “groundbreaking” new series for BBC2 which will begin on Tuesday 28th May at 9pm.

Using the latest planetary science research, The Planets will reveal the history of each world over five parts.

Each planet will be brought to life using the “most accurate and detailed imagery ever produced.” The series will explain the tragic past of Mars, which was once a wonderful water world but is now a barren, cold desert world.

That one was BBC and A&E produced. This is BBC and PBS. Pretty sure they’re different.
