Before anyone tells me, I know this is a fairly cynical view but as I'm now a fully paid up member of the Grumpy Old Mens club I'm perfectly entitled to express it

Even though I liked the programme I can understand the reasons that you didn't like it and can see the format wasn't for everyone.
However, I would much prefer to watch this style of programme as opposed the the style adopted by the 'elephant diaries' presenters, the series which finished last night.
To me, the elephant diaries sensationalised each stories and 'humanised' each elephant to the extent that I almost expected the elephants to put on pyjamas and talk to the camera themselves!

One last thing, Jeff, this Grumpy Old Men's Club - is there one for women?!
