Just seen this advertised.
Twitchers: A Very British Obsession
on BBC4 at 9pm on Monday 1st November.
quoting from the BBC website
"Every year, a secret tribe take to the roads of Britain. In the space of a few months they will drive thousands of miles and spend thousands of pounds in pursuit of their prey. Their aim is to see as many birds as possible, wherever that bird may be.
Welcome to the very competitive world of the twitcher - obsessives who'll stop at nothing to get their bird."
Cheers David 
p.s. I suppose Lee Evans will be on there at some point.... |

Cheers. Might watch if I'm feeling tolerant. If not, I might break the TV screen, LOL.

Do you think BBC had shares in Exxon or BP?  |

Which one was it, Dogghound? I've just watched it in total amazement! That guy who travelled all the way from the Scillies to the NE and got there just before dark. Couldn't believe anyone would do that, but now I know better.
Wonder if they will have a word with Gary about being on his hand held mobile on the M1 northbound?!!!! Bit late now, it was filmed last year. |

Just watched the 'Twitchers' one. Gary Bagnall on film using a mobile phone whilst driving - what an irresponsible idiot.
I found the programme a tad embarrassing to be honest - as for the people indoctrinating their 7 year old daughter - blimey Mrs S would have nipped that in the bid straight away!
It was entertaining in a weird way I suppose.
