Secrets and Mysteries are revealed as we draw back the world’s oceans using cutting edge CGI and stunning photography

In Drain The Oceans Season One, the globe’s waters are drained away to reveal natural wonders, explore legends and mysteries, and tell the stories of sunken vessels and lost treasures. We find the resting place of Nazi secrets, and evidence of trade, slavery and war. We find clues to the ancient Egyptian’s obsession with the afterlife, and ask why it is that so many today want to believe in the legendary Atlantis? We look inside the longest, most costly search in aviation history, and how it is that we can lose a jetliner with 239 people on board – the MH370. Amazing CGI and photography, based on the work of top marine archaeologists and the latest scientific data, beautifully reveal the globe’s underside and with it the watery puzzles, secrets and mysteries that capture our imagination.

The series criss-crosses the Globe with visits to the China Seas, Gulf of Mexico, Mediterranean, Nile, Pacific Rim, Indian Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Baltic Sea.
