Hi Ruth,
I've just seen Bill Oddie and Kate Humble trailing it on breakfast telly. The interviewers were Bill Turnbull and Kate Singleton. Bill Oddie had a bit of fun with that, even giving Bill Turnbull a bit of a hard time. Bill Turnbull said it was easier to interview John Prescott! Kate Humble saved the day talking about Sika Deer and Red Squirrels. I'll be watching.

As I've said elsewhere....I find BO a tad irritating....and that's being polite!

I nearly added when I posted this thread earlier today that I'd prefer it not to become a critism of the presenters thread,sadly I see it's started already.
If we could just stick to the birds/wildlife it would be appreciated folks.....thanks.o

No problem, Ruth!
We had sadly crossed this path before on the now defunct Talksmall.
These are my last words on this subject.
Roll on 8.00pm! Bring it on!

Oddie and Humble bashing has been done to tedium already elsewhere on the forum, it's become quite tiresome now so I'm another who would like to see opinions on the presenters kept out of the discussion...hopefully there should be plenty of quality new wildlife footage to discuss and conservation news from different locations around the country.
If people are so insistant on expressing their dislike of people then they should perhaps open a thread about it elsewhere, preferably on another forum

Oh no, not rutting deer again! lol Well ok it is a new species so I will learn something. I would just love a pair of those antlers to hang in the porch.
I'm surprised they are covering the Grey Seals on the Farnes again this year, although I won't be complaining about local interest.
I'll keep an open mind until things begin to hot up. More birds for me please and any thing that's little! I'm afraid I shall miss tomorrow nights offering as football will take precedence.

Brian!:eek!: How can football take precedence over wildlife?:eek!
Loved the opening scenes!:t:
Yes, rutting deer again, but it will be interesting to hear the facts of why some stags are more appealing than others! I have my own theory but will not put it in black and white on here!
I found the wasps film was fascinating and well filmed! I now see wasps in a different light and I didn't know that they ate other insects !:eek!:
Those beautiful big eyes on the baby seals were a picture! So appealing!
A great start to the series!:t:

PMSL! So far I haven't seen anyone bashing the presenters on this thread; simply three posters expressing their views in a polite way.
Now that is a good idea!
I must admit I thought oh no, not rutting stags again! Even if they are a different species. Nice to see the red squirrels. I only saw the first half as there was something I wanted to watch elsewhere at 8.30.

Can't argue with that one, Brian! They need them desperately! :eek!: Ooops this is Autumnwatch not 'Match of the day'!:-O

Well are you prepared to put it down in black and white? Then I can tell you if it is was same that I was thinking!o

Makes a pleasant change from previous discussions on other parts of the forum then, for which I was mostly refering to.
To get back on topic...was particularly keen on the lizards, had never heard of those Wall Lizards before...though shame their presence seems to effect the local Common lizard population. An enjoyable prog for the most part.
