- StarsAlice RobertsBrian RichmondSvante PääboWe have uncovered the secrets of the atom, travelled to the moon, and dominated planet Earth. But how did humans come to be so successful? This three-part series reveals the powerful anatomical changes that have given us - and our ancestors - the edge over all other life on Earth. From the way we walk, to the shape of our jaw and even the way our thumbs move, we are connected intimately to the struggles and triumphs of our ancestors.
