Did you know that there are volcanoes in the ocean which spill not lava, but methane ?
Did you know that there are bacteria living deep in the ocean which figured out a way to do photosynthesis without light (they do what's known as chemosynthesis) ?
Did you know that 23% of the Earth's surface is actually one single underwater mountain ?
Did you know that there is life in parts of the ocean where the environment is like a pool of bleach with a pH of 11 ?
(If you don't remember what pH is, it's a measure of acidity or alkalinity. Anything below 7 is acidic, above 7 is alkaline, 7 is neutral. Both extremes are corrosive.)

Doctor Who – The End Of Time: Part One
It's the Tenth Doctor's final journey – but his psychotic nemesis the Master has been reborn, on Christmas Eve. With both determined to cheat death, the battle ranges from the wastelands of London to the mysterious Immortality Gate, while the alien Ood warn of an even greater danger approaching, as a terrible shadow falls across the entire Universe.
Doctor Who – The End Of Time: Part Two
The Doctor faces the end of his life as the Master's plans hurtle out of control. With the sound of drums growing louder, and an ancient trap closing around the Earth, the Doctor and Wilf must fight alone. But sacrifices must be made, and the deadly prophecy warns: "He will knock four times."
