Well-presented, and very good presentation of excellent content. The evolution of modern humans is encapsulated into 3 areas, which I consider to be logical - bones, guts and brains - for which you'll have to see the series to understand what these mean in detail. Each of these is well-explained with the right examples.

Along the way, some geology and climate change is shown, and this is shown in an excellent way as well.

This series uses appropriate graphics to illustrate points, often overlaying CGI on top of real footage. This also is well-done and never shaky or dodgy.

The different stages of evolution are mentioned in each episode, as is the time of each stage, which is very helpful to the average viewer (including me).
