The BBC has revealed the full list of celebrities taking part in its forthcoming Saving Planet Earth series - including a journey to the lairs of endangered Ethiopian wolves by the comedian Graham Norton and a search for Indian tigers by the newsreader Fiona Bruce. The nine-part series will commemorate the BBC Natural History Unit's 50th anniversary. The series, which starts in June with a show hosted by Sir David Attenborough, will also include trips by the singer Will Young to find lowland gorillas hunted for bushmeat in Gabon, a journey by Jack Osbourne to study Namibian elephants, and Carol Thatcher's quest to see how long-line fishing endangers albatross in the Falklands. Paul Appleby, the producer of Saving Planet Earth, said the locations had been selected to illustrate the achievements of global conservation groups. At the end of the series, the celebrities will join hosts Sir David Sir David Attenborough and Alan Titchmarsh for a live fundraising finale, which will follow the same format as Children in Need, to draw funds for the Saving Plant Earth Fund. The fund plans to secure enough money for several major projects working with endangered species across the world for the next two to three years.
