Dig Deeper: Behind the Lens of Wild London
Step behind the camera and discover the wild side of the UK’s capital at our next Dig Deeper event on 3 November. Join the team behind the documentary Wild London for an exclusive evening exploring how they brought the city’s lesser-spotted wildlife moments to the screen in one of the world’s busiest places.

Hear from the filmmakers at Passion Planet, alongside one of our Museum scientists, as they share stories from behind the scenes and discuss why urban wildlife matters. Discover the challenges and extraordinary encounters that shaped the footage, which features Sir David Attenborough and our very own Museum gardens.
This special evening is your chance to dig deeper into the nature on your doorstep and explore the role we can all play in helping it flourish. Plus, put your questions to the experts during a live Q&A.
Non-member tickets will be available to book on Friday 9 October.
