I just think there's so many horrible, noisy, 'shouty' tv programmes around that it's nice just to watch something pleasant and calm for a change. If it's informative as well -so much the better.
Stop and smell the roses...very appropriate jatnik.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
just watched last night's springwatch (iplayer), all about moths and butterflies, well worth a look. I'd stopped watching these programmes, the presentation had got a bit too childish but this wasn't too bad. interesting stuff
Jatnik - I have to agree with you about Chris Packham - don't care for his style at all so I don't watch Springwatch - it's what the off button's for! The moth/butterfly was programme was very enjoyable although I missed some of it as I didn't know it was on. I often use the subtitles instead of having the sound on if I don't like the presenters!

Im glad other people feel that Springwatch has dummed down. Bring back Kate Humble and Bill Oddie. However I do like Chris Packham getting as many song titles from a particular punk band during the last series.
As for Monty his dog shares my name and I keep thinking he is calling me. To be fair I have usually had a glass or two by that time on a friday. I think Monty is an institution and a wonderful advocate for all the good things a garden can do both for its creator and for many other creatures. Long may he reign.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Oh please! Nigel is an utter delight. Such a gentle disposition, with his waggy tail,and general countenance. Monty is superb too. How can anyone not like him?
I like seeing Nigel, looking forward to seeing that hedge grow. I dont normally watch springwatch without kate, I've no issues with Packham he can be funny with them Bowie songs. I recorded last nights, watched this morning it was very interesting.

I agree with you Nutcutlet( oh you make my mouth water everytime I see your name....must make some!)
I "muted" when Chris Pecham came on Spring watch as I found him too patronising.He has toned down a bit now and I did enjoy the butterflies.
Thank you Fairygirl........I have been very ill for a while and thought I was losing it!!
