Hi, has anyone been to see Chris Packham on his Never Mind The Buzzards.. tour that is on at the moment? I am going to see him in Lincoln this coming Saturday, it sounds a really interesting evening. Just wondered if anyone else had seen it or planning to see it?

Mandy- I hadn't heard about this tour. I'm sure it will be an entertaining evening as Chris is a great character + certainly knows his wildlife. Have a great time + let us know how it went!

Saw him at an RSPB event last spring. He is brilliant. Down to earth, funny and extremely knowledgeable. I shook his hand and have his autograph too. Lucky me.

It seems to be a show he will do for whoever books him. I tried to find a listing but could only find isolated adverts for a couple of venues he was currently booked to do. If anyone finds a complete listing I'd be grateful for the link.

I havent been able to find a listing of any other places he going to be at either .. Looks like Kent misses out again

He's a really nice guy. I've met him three times now and the last time had chance to have a good chat about Dragonflies with him, his knowledge of all things wild is stunning.

If he is doing talks then I can imagine how good they will be, his enthusiasm is highly infectious.

Looks like you're right, Smartie. I've found this page for the production/management company that manages booking of his shows. Maybe for the next WAB AGM?
