Tweeting from the South Pole with Sir David Attenborough

BBC Frozen Planet Producer Dan Rees sent his first tweet from the South Pole on New Year's day. Since then he has kept up a running commentary on his experience of safety training at ice school at the huge US base at McMurdo.

Now Sir David Attenborough has arrived at McMurdo (after three failed attempts to fly from New Zealand - aborted due to bad weather), to start filming at Captain Scott's Hut. If all goes well Dan & David Attenborough will both go to the South Pole in a week's time.
