I watched 15 minutes of it and then turned it off, the narrators were doing my head in!

Hi Baz and all,
I know what you mean Baz, but I'm with Kat on this as sometimes the narrator and especially (just sometimes) the music can be so off putting and either make or beak a programme, a shame they can't always get it right, though they should be able to with all the money that must be spent on such programmes.
Love, Sue

Hi Sue and Kat.
I agree completely with you both. The likes of Sally Gunnell - now gone thank heavens - shoving a microphone under some poor knackered athletes nose and asking stupid questions in the most patronising way, in that mind-numbing voice, could put me off athletics forever if I didn't have a volume control or mute button. That's why I'm often pleased when I've recorded wildlife programmes, because if there's any part of it that, to quote Del Boy, " Gets on my fruppney bits," I can flip through it quickly.
All the best to you both.
Baz.

Hi Folks,
I must admit that I tend to watch a lot of wildlife documentaries with the sound off completely due to the narrator/music. There's only Sir David Attenborough and Miss Uhlenbrook who I can listen to and enjoy. Agree with Sue that sometimes the music is just awful and detracts from the progamme. I frequently wonder whether the composer has actually seen the programme when the music is not in tune with the action.
Oh yes I missed the programme last night so will have to watch out for the repeat.
