Neanderthals - Meet Your Ancestors

The read

The series ran 1 season across 2 episodes and has finished, so there is no cliffhanger risk.

Synopsis

According to recent science the Neanderthals are not the knuckle-dragging apemen of popular imagination. In fact they are our distant ancestors. About 2% of the DNA of most people is of Neanderthal origin—and it continues to affect us today. Ella Al-Shamahi enlists the skills of Andy Serkis, the master of performance capture, and a group of experts to investigate Neanderthals.
