Thanks for being logical Gaina: I too have several shirts and t-shirts the same - it makes sense when something fits, washes well and doesn't need ironing (thats the important bit - no ironing!) to buy 3 or 4
I do agree with sleipnerofasgard tho - and I've said it before - if Autumnwatch is reaching its targeted audience then its doing its job - and despite whether the presenters are annoying - personally I find the slow way David Attenborough speaks quite irritating after a while, yet I don't get this with Alan Titmarsh cos he speaks the way he always speaks - you can tell its his normal speech pattern - he's not putting anything on for tv.
I am older, have been around natural history a long time, have seen a lot of interesting things and been to a lot of these places featured - but I still get a kick out of the footage - I enjoy recognising some of the places I've been and the critters that live there (tho not the Formby
Fox at the moment with his bad leg - I suspect he may have been clipped by a car). As good as Simon is - and he has got better and more relaxed in front of the camera - the programme wouldn't be half as good if it was just him or just him and Kate. You cannot present wildlife to folk with no real knowledge of it as a dull and very serious subject - they would turn off in droves - then where would the next generation of naturalists come from?
