MAGAZINE

In the new issue of Radio Times magazine...

We're exclusively previewing an event that could quite rightly be described as the end of an era: David Attenborough's final wildlife series in the Life on Earth cycle.

Since the 1970s Attenborough's epic study of the planet's natural history has been a staple of BBC schedules, and on the eve of Life in Cold Blood's debut, Jeremy Paxman talks to the Grand Old Man of television about the meaning of life.

Also this week:

We go behind the scenes of Shameless to unveil a new set for the series. Not that Frank will notice, mind...
Monty Don joins us to talk about his exploration of the world's finest gardens
And we chat to EastEnder June Brown about Dot going solo
