Chris Packham and winter watch

Used to love Really Wild Show when my kids were little. Chris Packham was so different from the rather stodgy people who trod that path before. I follow him on social media, and I think he talks a lot of sense.

I have never liked Chris Packham since I saw a programme of his a few years ago. He said butterflies were attracted to dog poo. He then proceeded to pick up some dog poo with his bare hands. Ugh!

That made me smile Maybee.

Love winter watch. I find Chris a bit extreme in some of his views but I still respect him for having them I know they used to try to get song titles into the dialogue on one of his shows: not sure if he still does it. Must be so difficult for him to present shows with his autism. Mind you, we met him years ago when he gave a talk at a local school but had no idea he was autistic back then. His enthusiasm is infectious. He showed us part of his lifelong collection of owl pellets.

I've always quite fancied Chris Packham.

I love Spring/Autumn/Winterwatch. They are all excellent and Chris Packham is a great presenter imo. I miss Martin who used to be a presenter and also find Michaela far too silly sometimes. Chris's stepdaughter is much better.

Cedric is so cute Shinamae!

He is, thank you ???????

Cedric is so cute Shinamae!

Chris Packham and his step-daughter Megan make a great pair on Winterwatch. They really cheered me up. ?????

Sarnia I started reading Fingers In The Sparklejar" but then I realised I'd have to read about his kestrel and I haven't felt up up to tackling that yet.

I love Chris Peckham. Love winterwatch

I love Winterwatch. I have no problem whatsoever with Chris Packham. Thank goodness for programmes like this.

I can happily accept Chris Peckham, the one I find irritating is Michaela - all that giggling. I wish the BBC didn't want all the women to seem slightly ditsy and pretend they don't know much.

I like Winter Watch and I like Chris Packham. There aren't many presenters on TV that don't irritate me from time to time, but at least he is knowledgeable and enthusiastic and passionate about something worthwhile.
I don't always agree with his campaigning, but then who does always agree with anyone? The one who irritates me the most is Michaela, I think, for some reason it always surprises me that she knows anything.

I don’t watch the program but here is my little bit of help for nature, he comes every night..... let me introduce you to Cedric...

I always feel as if he might eat me!! Those teeth and the wolfish grin, but sooner him than CP!

I like Chris Packham too.

Well I certainly enjoyed last night's programme if only for segment by the teenager named Indy and his beautiful film on goshawks.A future presenter of many wildlife programmes I'm sure.
And CP can be a bit irritating with his jokes but I have much more tolerance and respect for him having read Fingers in the Sparkle Jar.I may not agree with his every campaign in the future,but there's no doubting his huge knowledge and passion for wildlife.
Gordon Buchanan is my favourite of all nature presenters.

I love Chris Packham and have no idea why People find him so irritating.

I'm joining those who like the programme and Chris Packham. Love all the Watch programmes. Keen fan. So glad this one's going to have more episodes.

I am baffled why people can dislike someone without knowing them. Perhaps we dislike those with a different personality from our own.

Seems Chris Packham is like Marmite. You either love him or hate him. I enjoy all the wildlife programmes whether hosted by Chris Packham or not. I will be watching the whole of Winter Watch and for those who can't stand him there is always the 'off' button.

I too like and admire CP. I like his sense of humour.

Not surprising that likes or dislikes of people, go with likes and dislikes of so many other things. Striking here.

I always feel as if he might eat me!! Those teeth and the wolfish grin, but sooner him than CP!

I don't watch Masterchef but I rather like Greg Wallace presenting Inside the Factory.
He seems so enthusiastic.

When Greg Wallace was on 'I'll Get This' a few months ago I thought he was much nicer when not in presenting mode and would be fun to have as a dinner guest.
