Sir David Attenborough is usually seen encountering the most fascinating creatures that populate the modern world.

In a new documentary, he is dealing with something very different - the events of 66 million years ago which left the dinosaurs extinct.

Chicxulub, an asteroid larger than Mount Everest, struck Earth at the end of the Cretaceous Period, causing the devastation which saw the time of the dinosaurs come to an end. Viewers can learn more about the collision in Dinosaurs: The Final Day when it airs on Friday 15 April, including the amazing finds made at the Tanis fossil site in North Dakota, USA.

Dinosaurs: The Final Day will also be available to watch on 大象传媒 iPlayer after transmission.
