actually i find it very easy to find something to do on a friday night (or any other night of the week for that matter) that doesnt involve watching kate humble flirting with chris packham while occasionally showing us a short clip of prerecorded action (not all the film clips are live as chris packham admitted in his radio times adverts)
I go out of my front door and take the dog for a walk on the downs in the moonlight - enabling me to "enjoy this countries stunningly beautiful wildlife" without any dumbing down or inane chatter - tonight i saw two foxes, a litle owl, and a herd of deer , and heard two tawnies having a wooing contest. I highly recomend this as an alternative to staring at the goggle box.
as to presenters who are dam site more knowledgeable than we are - I'm yet to see much evidence of this , particularly from kate - (chris and simon yes but not kate), many presenters for this sort of show are chosen for their looks and bubbly (for which read annoying) personalities not their indepth knowledge of wildlife.
