Silverback Sunday, 9pm, BBC2
Wildlife cameraman Vianet Djenguet has been lucky enough to film some of the most iconic animals in the world for series like A Year on Planet Earth. Now, he's following a group of 23 wild gorillas in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in BBC2's 90-minute film Silverback.
Djenguet is hoping that the gorillas will accept him as one of the family as he films them for three months. However, that all depends on a notorious 32st silverback called Mpungwe.
