Thanks Matt,

It is good to hear I am getting the mix right, as there are not many nature or wildlife programmes on.

I hope people are like you and read the diary thoroughly as you will have seen Hands on Nature and Coast seem to be used as fillers, don't know how else to put that they can appear on any day or time and don't always say repeats, seem to be new little clips for Coast and Hands on Nature with Chris Packham gives no details at all so sorry if everyone has seen them all and/or are confused as I am. At least the series of Natural World do all seem to be new programmes and Fridays repeated on Sundays so you have two opportunities to watch them.

Thanks again.

Ann :smoke::egghead:
