Steve Backshall joins us for an ocean special. We find about his favourite wildlife experiences throughout his career, the importance of connecting with the nature on our doorsteps and even create our own version of Deadly-60!

We also find out what was scarier...coming face to face with a 4.5 metre crocodile or wearing the sparkly spandex on Strictly Come Dancing!
