Tiger Kill

Well, we debated last week's episode so I thought I'd see what you thought of tonight's Natural World?

Personally, I love Simon King and really enjoyed the show. I felt gutted for the guy who'd been trying to film a tiger kill for 17 years and then missed it when it happened right in front of him! At least he got the shot in the end! How gutted would he have been if Mr King had come along and managed it in a week of trying!? Amazing creatures, great episode

Agree, certainly had us glued to the TV.

I agree too .... I thoroughly enjoyed this programme.

Next week's programme looks good too .... Arctic wildlife.

Yep, I know it wasn't based in Britain, but it showed how a great British cameraman could really make a difference

Mr King was excellent. I too am looking forward to next week's episode. I think the whole series has been first-rate so far. Still gob-smacked by the Snow Leopard show though! Quality TV

That guy's tripod was something else! Good job the elephant had someone controlling it. Imagine if it wandered off, and left you sitting on that tripod, 15 foot in the air with 'Tigger' sitting under you, drooling!

For those that did not see the programme first time around, "Tiger Kill" is repeated today on BBC at 6.10 p.m. preceded from 5 p.m. by "An Otter in the Family", "Killer Whales in the UK?" and "Glacier Mountain Goats".
