    In response to South Georgia's dark history of excessive whaling and hunting, the island is now a protected area. What are your thoughts on the island's ability to bounce back?

      When I read your post I decided, weak person that I am, I can't watch this. As an ocean sailor and general explorer I decided to give it a go. They clipped the film just at the moment you could tell what was getting ready to happen. I wonder if it was your comment. If so, thanks.

    • @Nagarath16
      @Nagarath16 5 лет назад +31

      I was wondering the same thing. Maybe they decuded that this wasn't interesting enough episode to start with to get people watching so they made the order different? That's what often happens to tv series.
