Lost Worlds 

5 x 60 Discovery Channel

Lost Worlds sees Monty Halls and Leo Houlding travel to the most remote, unchartered and extreme locations on Earth to discover new species and uncover some of our planet's greatest natural wonders. Venturing far off the known map the team were successfully able to discover new cave networks, a host of species new to science, unnamed mountain peaks and what is now recognised as one of the highest waterfalls in the world.

  Working on Lost Worlds from its inception to series development and field production enabled me to create storylines around the core locations of the show. I helped carry out initial location feasibility surveys, access arrangements and pre-production exploration around each unchartered region that the show explored, and lead arrangements for each expedition. I also planned detailed logistics from the air, to the sea and ground.

Guyana - Canopies and Waterfalls

Exploring unchartered jungles, canopies, waterfalls and caves led to the discoveries of the 23rd highest waterfall in the world as well as several species, potentially new to science.
