Wild Women Live – There’s a Reason it’s called Mother Nature

Join Megan McCubbin, Hannah Stitfall, Michaela Strachan, and Anna Dimitriadis, for an unforgettable evening as they take you behind the scenes of wildlife filmmaking, revealing what it really takes to bring the natural world to life on screen.

Women have long been at the heart of the world’s greatest wildlife storytelling, venturing into extreme environments, operating cameras in the toughest conditions, and bringing the hidden wonders of nature into our homes. Yet in a field often perceived as male-dominated, their extraordinary contribution has too often gone unseen.

Now, these remarkable women take centre stage.

From sweltering jungles and frozen Arctic landscapes, to Britain’s own coastlines and countryside, these pioneering women have captured the hidden lives of the natural world. Along the way, they have brought vital female voices and experiences to wildlife broadcasting with courage, resilience, and exceptional skill, helping to transform both the programmes we watch and the way we see our planet. Expect adventure, unexpected encounters, behind-the scenes stories, hilarious anecdotes, and perhaps a few tales of things that definitely weren’t in the risk assessment.

Whether you’re passionate about wildlife, fascinated by adventure, or simply love the stories behind great television, Wild Women Live is a celebration of the pioneering women who risk it all to share the wonder of our planet.
