The documentary will explore the creation of native forests and conservation initiatives put in place in 53 countries across Britain and the Commonwealth as part of the project set up by The Queen's Commonwealth Canopy.

The Queen's Green Planet will also feature a special conversation between Her Majesty and Sir David Attenborough in the garden at Buckingham Palace, which took place last summer.
