Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

[quote=And;560872 She made me laugh tonight with her cheeky comment about Chris taking her to a car park on a night out.[/QUOTE]

OK, but what has got to do with wildlife,nature and 'Autumn Watch'. There's enough comedy on TV without these pair joining the 'comedian brigade'.

Countryfile is a far better programme in my opinion as all its time is spent on the main subject 'country life' without all the hilarity we have now to put up with on Autumnwatch.

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

Well I still really like it, I like Chris and I like Kate and well all of them really - though I wish the new hairy chap (Martin is it?) would perhaps snigger less p- I think its a nervous things but its still a little annoying.

And I still think Kate is largely playing the part of someone who perhaps doesn't know as much - asking the questions most of the general public would ask on their behalf. She's been doing things like this for a long time and a lot of marine stuff too - I find it very hard to believe that she's not picked a few things up in this time!

She seems like a lovely person I only hope she's not too hurt by some comments when she sees them.

I really like that they have decided to keep Chris's more scientific comments in - even if they have made it into a geeky comedy feature - I think this is ideal for those who instantly tune words out the second they start to sound scientific.

It might not be everyone's cup of tea but I love it - wish it was on at this time slot all through the year to cover all events.

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

On reflection, I like Kate too. At least she's good to look at I don't think the new format is that bad really, when you look at the rubbish that's on TV, generally (I won't bore you with a list) and you hear all the language and the like, from 'so called' top chefs etc, it's a refreshing change to see some pleasent presenters on tv, even if they dont always know everything about everything. Kate and Chris have chemistry and I'm sure their partners aren't so narrow minded as to get jealous about a little harmless flirting. I agree 100% with you Gill - I love it and also wish it was on all year round.

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

On balence (and I deliberately missed last week cos I found it so annoying the week before) but I risked it again last night and thought it was possible that they have been asked to just tone it down a little - camaradarie is fine - but Kate getting silly and shreiky just gets on my nerves - and I do actually like her but if I was a friend or working with her I'd have to suggest she toned it down just a bit ......... Chris Packham does manage to joke without going over the top and has settled down in middle age - he came over very arrogant when he was a young chap - he prob didn't mean to. The other chappie - well - I know its unfair to pick on folks mannerisms and I too rely on reading glasses and sometimes put them up on my head - but for goodness sake - keep getting his glasses tangled in all that hair - sorry - but its an affectation that some misguided person must have said would look good - it doesn't - its just annoying and if I was sat next to him I would slap his hand after the 6th or 7th time of whipping them on and off his head - either that or produce scissors and get rid of the hair ...........

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

No, keep the hair but buy some varifocal glasses with plain glass at the top if he doesn't need specs for distance! I thought it was just me being over-grumpy getting annoyed by the constant ups and downs of the glasses.

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

Well I don't care what anyone says, I'm loving this series and so are many others looking at the viewing figures.

As for Chris P's in jokes, his T-shirts refer to sci-fi films and the back of his cards refer to some of the greatest indie albums of all time (Psycho Candy- The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses). I can only remember his Nostromo T-shirt at the moment (Nostromo was the name of the space ship in Alien) but if anybody wants any others explained, let me know, I'm an uber-geek

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

I like the series so far, along with unsprung (I've done worryingly well on some of the quizzes!). Packham has really grown on me too.

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

Ive been away from WB for a long time as it got to the point i was fed up of the bitching and moaners and haters and old miserable gits that we seem to have all become.....after enjoying yet another great 1.5 hours of Autumnwatch i thought i would pop in and see my old friends.....and i find you all older, moaning more, bitching and being even more miserable about poor old Kate and Chris than you were about Bill and Kate.....some things never change!.

Cheer up the bloody lot of you!...one day...the bbc is going to listen to all you moaners and nit pickers and take all widlife off the tv for good....and THEN you really will be moaning!

Simon, Chris, Gordan are all very intelligent, knowledgable naturalists...Kate is a very likeable and experienced presenter. Some of us 30 somethings even fancy her...some of you 30 something women may even fancy Chris?....who gives two hoots if they flirt a bit? you all wanna thank your lucky stars im not a presenter on AW as i would be 20 times worse!....who do you want?....Charlie Chaplin and Hilda Ogden? would that suit you people more?...lol or maybe a Vicar and mother teresa?

Yeah she giggles, yeah the long haired one is irritating....but how great was the sparrowhawk drowning the magpie?.....who has ever seen a kingfisher pellet?, how nice was simons front room??!....I love SW and AW for all its faults....and i am positively sad in between times when neither is on tv...

Rant over.

But Countryfile is countryfile and Autumn/Springwatch is Autumn/Springwatch.

If they made Autumn watch just like Countryfile no doubt the moaners on here, like you, would then just say ...Autumnwatch is too much like countryfile...infact, there would then be no need four Autumnwatch at all...

You are an adult, you are old enough to make the decision that you dont like autumnwatch with its funny young presenters (which is maybe aimed at people more like myself), but you do like the sensible , straight mood of countryfile (which is aimed at people more like yourself).....so go watch that!, dont watch AT...and stop moaning.
Personally i like Aw, Sw, Countryfile, Country Tracks, Country Ways, Escape to the Country and anything else country or wildlife related and i watch them all!

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

Welcome back Dan - I see you haven't changed much while you've been away either - don't worry matey you're well on track to become a moaning old git too just like us - all you have to do is live long enough - life supplies all the irritations along the way to make it happen

I enjoyed last night - tho my breath hitched in my chest a couple of times when I thought the !new! glasses may be going to be whipped up into the hairline ........

No seriously - last night was good - the team have melded into a team - it was very enjoyable to watch they have settled down well - full marks from me. The wrinkles at the outset were prob due to nerves, new presentation, new format etc. The whole production has arrived at excellence I'm sure it appeals and works for the target audience which is surely to get more folk - younger people - younger family folk - interested in the wildlife that surrounds us all.

As for the sparrowhawk using drowning - husband has watched a sparrowhawk at work deliberately take a fiesty noisy starling and drown it in one of the ponds ........ which is a hugely interesting thought that raises a lot of very interesting questions .... so some creatures - maybe only predators - understand what death is and what can cause it ......... I'm still reeling from the fact that killer whales put other whales onto their backs and cause a sort of catatonia in order to overcome and kill something larger than themselves.... there is something far more sophisticated going on than mere 'animal savagery' here isn't there ........

Pauline

Does that mean even more irritations to come then? Oh dear

Ditto with the glasses - I was holding my breath too!

A different kind of intelligence perhaps, but not just instinct surely?

Interesting question that. Do the sprawks understand death as a concept? Or have they just learned that by sticking their prey in water it stops them struggling? One for the animal philosophers out there.

Nice rant Dan, totally agree. Maybe you SHOULD be a presenter. I'd find it entertaining anyway

If we are to attract new people to wildlife, we have to do it in new ways. I can't wait for a wildlife show presented in the style of The Word myself

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

I thought the programme last night was the best yet. I also think that it would be a great idea to have a Winter Watch programme letting people know that even in the dpeths of winter, it's possible to see plenty of wildlife.

I'm looking forward to the next programme which has Kate and Chris visiting the Cairngorms. Unless it all melts, there is a bit of snow on the tops which has moved a bit lower during the last week.

lol god forbid the Telegraph (or Daily mail) should resist a dig at the BBC! The problems they talk about were already there before autumnwatch. Last year the WAB Deer Rut meet spoke about the rangers being worried about people disturbing them and as for Richmond Park, well there are ALWAYS idiots with dogs (and some with cameras!) getting too close. I remember Autumnwatch showing what happened when a dog got to close with Martin's photos and then Simon giving advice on not getting to close etc. Cant blame autumnwatch for the plague of our parks: idiots with dogs!

Re: Autumnwatch on at a new time

I've thoroughly enjoyed it and am already looking forward to the next series of Springwatch.

I was completely gobsmacked to hear that there are now 440 ospreys breeding in the UK. I thought there were still just a couple of heavily guarded sites in Scotland plus the pair at Rutland Water. Never dreamed there were that many!

It's a great success story, and I'm lucky enough to live right in the middle of an Osprey stronghold. In the summer when I'm out and about, it isn't that unusual to see an Osprey fishing, although I'm never fast enough with the camera to get a good shot. I think there are a lot more nest sites around this area than the obvious Loch Garten site, but people tend to keep them fairly quiet.
