Watching it at the moment thanks to WHF info on news page and it’s really stunning!

I bought the blu ray disc only yesterday. Planet Earth 2 was stunning, so have high expectations from it!

The series was wonderful at normal broadcast quality, so I am really looking forward to it in 4k. I only have Planet Earth II on 4k disc at the moment and it is amazing with my new setup (Optoma UHD 65, Oppo 103, sapphire 106 inch screen).

I read that last month about blue planet 2 being shown in 4k but the normal picture quality they normally show that’s not in 4k looks pretty amazing anyway

started watching episode 1 yesterday and the HLG image was outstanding. I noticed a few artifacts in the underwater reef scenes with fast moving fish but not sure if that was an underwater shot limitation rather than an issue with iplayer. I imagine the full disc would be better.

Was really looking forward to this but can't get it on my TV for some reason

Not compatible with the sony software iplayer or something like that. Sony would not support HLG play back. (well not yet). You can play it through a different source to your tv set but not from it, if that makes sense.
