Features & Capabilities

BBC Earth Colouring is an engaging Chrome extension that lets users colour beautifully illustrated line drawings inspired by the BBC's acclaimed PLANET EARTH II series, narrated by Sir David Attenborough. Released alongside the global launch of the documentary, this app offers 36 intricate illustrations across initial packs—each featuring iconic wildlife scenes. The first illustration in each pack is free, with additional images available via in-app purchases.

Users can switch between free-form and block-fill colouring tools and choose from hundreds of specially curated wildlife colours. Every illustration comes with an informative Fact File to deepen your connection with nature. Completed artworks can be saved in your personal gallery and shared socially through the extension’s built-in functionality. The app also provides inspiration via a gallery and supports easy discovery of creations using the hashtag #bbcearthcolouring. Future content releases will expand the collections drawn from BBC Earth’s archives for continued creative exploration.

Developed by Scary Beasties for BBC Worldwide, BBC Earth Colouring prioritises user privacy and offers customer support for any technical issues. Dive into a nature-inspired creative experience and bring the beauty of Planet Earth II to life.
