Movie star Michael Douglas has agreed to work with Gass Productions and Ocean Vet to narrate the series on behalf of Dr. Neil Burnie, the producers revealed today.
Ocean Vet — a 12-part television series which explores Bermuda’s varied marine life through the eyes of veterinarian Dr. Neil Burnie — began filming earlier this year, with the series having been pre-sold to Cineflix Rights, a leading, independent UK television content distributor.
Unfortunately Dr. Burnie died following a marine accident last month, however Ocean Vet pledged to continue the series, saying: “To Neil, Ocean Vet was his dream; we have this dream in our hands and his legacy by our side. With great honour and pride we will share Neil’s dream with the world.”

A post on Ocean Vet’s official social media page today said, “It’s been a very busy few months in the UK, we have been hard at work to ensure Ocean Vet continues and becomes stronger.
“The delivery to networks is now pushed back to December 2015. We still have a considerable amount of work ahead to get the series into its slightly altered format. Everything is now scheduled and work is underway.
“In consideration of the changes we have revised some elements in the original trailer to include new footage and express a more ‘team’ feel to the series. Something necessary as Neil didn’t finish the narration and some underwater pieces to camera. We will be back in Bermuda in June to re-shoot some parts of the series.
“Finally we would also like to reveal that Michael Douglas has agreed to work with Gass Productions and Ocean Vet to narrate the series on behalf of Neil, something we are immensely proud of.”
