NEW WILDLIFE Secret World of Sound with David Attenborough Sunday, 8pm, Sky Nature & Sky Showcase (box set, Sky Box Sets & NOW) 

Open your ears to the natural world as you've never heard it before in Sir David Attenborough's new three-part Sky series, Secret World of Sound.

The audiovisual feast uses advanced technology to record sounds humans can't usually hear, including tiny microphones that fit on a fingertip and can detect a baby caiman calling from inside the egg.

In this week's first episode, Hunters and Hunted, Attenborough explores how animals use sound to catch prey and evade predators.
