The Guardian’s four-star review likened the series to a whodunit written by Maeve Binchy. Val will have to use all her wiles and wits to find out who is trying to take down the family. His arrival coincides with an orchestrated campaign against Val’s family, with her daughters Jenny (Niamh Walsh), Grace (Seána Kerslake) and Anna (Gemma Lee Devereux) in the firing line. Series two begins with a new arrival in the Co Clare community: Denis’s estranged son Finn, who was abandoned and left to grow up in foster care in the UK. The well-received drama series returns for season two, and there are new challenges in store for Val Ahern (Dervla Kirwan) as her dead husband Denis continues to cast a long, toxic shadow over her and her family’s lives. Sir David will travel around the world to discover trees that look after each other like family, plants that hunt animals, and one plant with the world’s deadliest defences. The series will use cutting-edge technology to uncover the secret lives of plants and reveal how they work together and with the animal world to propagate and thrive. For this five-part series, Attenborough focuses on the plant kingdom and how those seemingly benign green, stalky yokes can be as aggressive as any wild animal when it comes to survival. Here’s another chance to marvel at one of the world’s most amazing natural phenomena: Sir David Attenborough, still making stunning TV series at the age of 95, and as passionate as ever about conserving the natural world, as evinced by his Cop26 address to world leaders in November. The Green Planet: winged seeds of the Dipterocarp tree in Borneo Jennifer Zamparelli and Nicky Byrne are back as presenters, with returning judges Lorraine Barry and Brian Redmond joined by dancer and choreographer Arthur Gourounlian.
