Buggin' with Ruud: Cloud Nine (2006) HD
7PM Saturday April 21st
In the mist shrouded zone in the coastal mountains of Venezuela lies the cloud forest, a vine tangled mass of dense dripping jungle. The forest is full of twisting paths and turns and huge bugs... like the Giant Centipede, Giant Cockroach and Giant Tarantula. But it's also home to some tangled and twisted bug relationships. You scratch my back - I'll lay my eggs on yours is the rule here. A complex ecological web that binds bugs, animals and plants together - often in the most unlikely of partnerships; like moths that live on sloths, scorpions who hitch free flights on super size jumbo flying beetles and ferocious ants that defend trees.

But Death Valley is also a place of survival. The creatures that live here are among the world's most successful adapters and a place of challenge. When the animals burrow and hide to escape the heat, there are men and women who choose to be exposed to this burning world.

They have some of the best pilots in the world. Clouds are the sleeping giants of the climate change puzzle. As the Earth’s battle with the sun heats up, they are our first line of defence. At the centre of cloud-production - thunderstorms - the clouds that make other clouds. How precisely do they do it, and are thunderstorms changing? The I.C.E. scientists search for the answers.

2:30PM Saturday April 21st
A film ahead of its time, this documentary embarks on a series of expeditions to check on the health of the Arctic and Antarctic. The Arctic and Antarctic are as different as day and night - one an ocean surrounded by land, the other a landmass surrounded by ocean.

Scientists are eager to find out what the consequences will be if there are significant changes to these processes. Current climate trends show that our planet is facing a challenge that cannot be denied. Only now are scientists beginning to understand the secrets of the crystal ball, and what they are seeing is disturbing them.

This Emmy Award winning film highlights the extraordinary event that takes place every year in the seas surrounding Antarctica. As the chill of a night, which will last for six months, envelops the frozen continent, the surface of the surrounding sea turns to solid ice, trapping everything in its path in an icy fist. This seemingly inhospitable and barren expanse of ice provides the basis of an intricate web of survival on which the lives of all of Antarctica's inhabitants - from microscopic krill to mammoth whales - depend. Then as winter's long pause turns to polar summer, icebergs are released from this blanket of ice to be sculpted into surreal forms by wind and water as they resume their inevitable journey towards death.
