Hmm, maybe next year, with a few raptors, they could rename it "Britain's Got Talons"
Buzzards are predators. Why shouldn't they eat Barn Owls and Moorhens? You should be saying "and", not "but".
For goodness' sake don't encourage anyone to put gulls on TV. Its bad enough the way they have colonised Birding World, displacing many more handsome, interesting and scarce species.

i know that but the general public might not like it. they might look very embarassed one star species eat each other.
there were no raptors in 2008 right?
gulls are interesting! they have lively characters and not allare displacing other species. the herri g gull is an amber bird in the uk.
Wild boar piglets, they would steal the show.

I'm not that bothered about the content of the programme, they can't please everyone but I would like it to be screened in SPRING (as in April) not half way through May when most of the Spring activities such as migration are mostly over.
Here's one more suggestion if they were able to get timing right in future series - having a base at one of the UK's migrant hotspots, say Fair Isle to see what rarities pop up.
More Kate less Oddie and of cause some lovely Bearded Tits
