Wildlife filmmaker Simon Kings brings his family along for this adventure, which finds them living in the Shetland Islands. King, with wife Marguerite and daughter Savannah, rents a cottage and the family spends time braving the harsh elements (high winds, driving rain, and, given their proximity to the North Pole, darkness for 8 months of the year) to film wildlife in spectacular settings. And there's plenty of wildlife to film - otters, killer whales, seals, gannets and more frolic in the beautiful, if forbidding, environment.

3/3. Having enjoyed the islands' changing seasons with his family, the wildlife cameraman ends his visit with a sighting of a pod of killer whales. A suitable end to a great trip. [S,AD]
