I like him too. Saw a programme about him being autistic and how he couldn't communicate with other kids and all the struggles he had growing up. He seems to be OK now though and is quite funny at times as well.

Packham should never have been given a platform by the BBC.

Why not?

I am so glad he did.

A wonderful programme always look forward to these seasonal bests on tv.

tidyskatemum I can’t stand him either, especially when I found out about his Travel with Chris Packham company, hypocritical or what!

Not me. I can’t stand Chris Packham and it really annoys me how the media seem to regard him as the One True Authority about British wildlife. The programme is good for getting people who are not engaged with wildlife to start getting interested but, and I am making no claims to having any expertise in the field, I just find it over simplistic and a bit tedious.

Who’s watching winter watch tonight? I personally think it’s fascinating and will get more interesting as the weather changes, it’ll help me through the winter months. I’ll be observing the wildlife in my garden from now on.
