The most depressing thing about Springwatch, aka 'The Chris and Kate Show', is that, despite having access to the skilled cameramen and kit of the BBC Natural History Unit, they fill at least 2/3 of the show with inane banter between the presenters. Maybe the target audience likes that kind of thing, I don't know, but far too much of the programme is full of it to the exclusion of more interesting content. They also jump about so often from subject to subject that a lot of time is taken up in repeating what they said earlier ("two minutes ago we saw this, and in another two minutes we'll be looking at this, but first let me tell you what's coming up later on")*.
Perhaps they could screen a half hour condensed version of the week's actual wildlife footage on Fridays.
