• “A bit dissapointing, when the presenter got on the subject it was good but about half the time they tried to create mysteries about stuff they clearly already knew which gave the series the air of talking down to the audience. The half hour they spent on the absurd and racist chinese belief that they evolved seperately is the best example of this. They should have gone straight to the genetic evidence and moved on. There were time that the show felt more like an episode of surviver as Dr Roberts - in the snow, on a raft, sleeping outdoors in Africa with nothing but a torch and a BBC film crew to keep her safe - presented us with some of the challenges our forebears faced.Too much (of the extremely attractive) Dr Roberts and not enough experts and science for me. However overall worth a watch. In short I'm glad I brought it but it could have been a lot better.”

• “A breath of fresh air on numerous levels . Level one : In a TV wasteland littered by Big Brothers and various other soul destroying programs , the BBC (again) comes to the rescue with money, insight, ideas and professionalism . Level two : A fascinating and multi-level story told in a down-to-earth and intelligent way . Level three : An up to date story with the latest insights shot in the exact locations were discoveries were made Level four : Imaginative camera work and photography with great background music. Level five :Presented by a professional in a intelligent, down to earth, natural and very charming way . And I mean Charming.. There are many other levels but do yourselves a favour and just buy the thing I'm off to see it again. ”

• “Doctor Alice Roberts gives the world an incredible human gift - the gift of great knowledge, bringing us closer together, reminding us of where we come from and our unique and special relationship with the planet we inhabit. But for the upsetting scenes involving the way animals are used with some of today's humans (which I couldn't view), I found the series incredibly empowering and uplifting”

  From: Louise Corry

• “Excellent series with a very engaging presenter and a haunting theme tune that covers an evolving topic (literally) in a popular science format but backed up by in depth scientific research.”

  From: Mark Eaton

• “I have been watching Dr.Alice Robert's theory of human journey. She is a very brilliant reporter. She did the work to details and made me enjoyed every bit of it. The programme has opened my eyes more than I can wish for. Thanks to Dr. Robert for brining it to us, and thanks to Darwin for giving us all this knowledge.' My question now is, 'Is there any god anywhere who created man in his image?'”
