The series consists of three episodes, each of which follows the rebuilding of one of our most iconic ancient ancestors from the bones up, with the help of a team of international experts. To make the reconstructions as accurate as possible, Alice Roberts and George McGavin have travelled the globe, gathering evidence from the world's leading scientists. Through the reconstructions, the series shows how the ancestors looked, how they lived and how they compared to us today.
