Might be of interest to some as it follows wildlife through the Btitish
Seasons. 9.00 pm on BBC1. My only gripes are that it clashes with
Science Brittanica which I would have thought would have appealed to
the same type of audience. Mind you the programming never makes sense -
either of these programes would be brilliant viewing for my
grandchildren at 8pm whereas Eastenders is on at 8 pm and isn't suitable
and should be on later if at all!

I wouldnt bother with either. Probably same load of brainwashed BBC horse**** as before. Read a book. May I suggest Manley's Climate and the British Scene. Big Jim

Well I don't know if you have killfiled the BBC but there was not a
single mention of AGW - just lots of fantastic photography and lots of
snow and weather. Remember when you used to like that?

I thoroughly enjoyed it. I particularly liked the bit where a kestrel tried
to mug a barn owl to get its vole. The kestrel didn't get it.

Have to say wasn't mad about the commentary but the photography was
stunning. Also the aerdrome is local to me and previously you were
allowed there so I've got some great owl pics.
