The younger royals have attended numerous events supporting conservation, and Harry recently helped schoolchildren plant trees.

Speaking to the BBC Science Focus magazine, Sir David said ahead of the new series: “You, me and the rest of the human species are critically dependent on the health of the natural world.

“If the seas stop producing oxygen, we would be unable to breathe, and there is no food that we can digest that doesn’t originate from the natural world.

“If we damage the natural world, we damage ourselves.”

Netflix has also announced the series will feature local narrators in 10 languages, including actresses Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek, who will narrate for Spain and Latin America respectively.
