We humans like to think of ourselves as unique, but in this programme you will discover how everything we are we owe to a group of animals that live in the trees. The Beasts Within provides a fascinating insight into our extraordinary relationship with monkeys and apes. We learn how our dextrous hands and expressive faces arose as the primates responded to the challenge of life in the forests. With the latest special effects, scientists come face to face with our own ancestors and unique fossil finds uncover how dangerous life was in the open savannah for our pioneering forefathers. Find out how close we came to being simply another cat's dinner.
