Ross Noble to explore our unnatural history Popular drops wildly imaginative new six-part series on YouTube

Ross Noble and Professor Shania Coddle join forces to host The Unnatural History Show, a nature-watch series with a fantastical twist. The series documents a truly once-in-a-lifetime spectacle; the magical hatching of the elusive and deadly Ferrototo Worm. Nature is all around us. It’s above our heads and it’s below our feet. It’s crawling around in our body hair and requires special shampoo to be destroyed. Mother Nature can be found hiding around every corner and in every crevice, just waiting to be discovered… LET’S FIND THAT MOTHER!

Episodes will be released weekly on Ross’s YouTube Channel starting on Thursday 10th June at 7pm AEST (10am GMT).

“I love nature documentaries,” said Ross, “but all of the real animals have been done. So I made this show about new creatures. In your face, Attenborough.”

The series was commissioned by Little Dot Studios (UK) and produced by Princess Pictures & Little Dot Studios. It was written and directed by Ross Noble, produced by Mike Cowap and

Gemma Murphy, with SFX by Justin Dix (Blood Vessel), VFX by Michael Shanks (Wizards of Aus), and cinematography from Heath Kerr (Superwog). Professor Shania Coddle is played by up-and-coming actress Vivienne Perry (Blood Vessel).
