David Attenborough tells the story of the winged insects that were the first creatures to take to the air.

Ultra-slow-motion cameras reveal incredible flight skills, such as dragonflies catching their prey and bluebottles flying upside down. From rare cascade damselflies to hovering hawkmoths, insects use flight to find new territories and food. Beetles have a more lumbering flight, none more so than the world's largest insect, the titan beetle.

Finally, David is on hand to witness the mass emergence of winged cicadas after 17 years underground as root-feeding grubs.
