Cindy Buxton

This and her previous three years there and in Antarctica are described in her book Survival: South Atlantic. She was subsequently invited to return for the Falkland Islands' 150th anniversary celebrations in February 1983.

During a filming expedition on South Georgia in March 1982, Buxton and her assistant Annie Price were caught up in the Falklands War. Argentine forces seized control of the east coast of South Georgia on 3 April 1982. Buxton and Price, who had been filming in an isolated part of the island, were trapped for four weeks before they were rescued by a helicopter from HMS Endurance on 30 April.

Buxton and Annie Price won the Media Award of the Variety Club of Great Britain for 1982 and Buxton was invested as a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. She now works in the field of video presentation of legal proceedings, for Z-Axis, which she joined in 1997.

Her first wildlife film was released in 1971, when she was just 21 years old. She later became involved in filming wildlife documentary films (chiefly for her father's nature documentary television series Survival). In 1978 she co-wrote the first scientific paper about the Shoebill, in Zambia. Her 1980 book "Survival in the Wild" is about her first 8 years in Africa.
