He does not have life easy : (Wiki) :
Packham has suffered with Ménière's disease since the age of 37.[24] In 2003, at the age of 42, Packham began seeing a therapist after the death of his dog, Fish.
As his work with the therapist concluded in 2005, Packham was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome.[25] He also revealed he has suffered from severe depression and had twice contemplated suicide

Why was Gillian Burke’s Springwatch appointment controversial?
In September 2016, Springwatch presenter Martin Hughes-Games claimed that he had been axed from the show because he is white and middle-class and the BBC wanted more diversity among its presenters.
It then emerged that Burke would be joining the team full-time but then the BBC, who denied Hughes-Games claims, said he would be back for Autumnwatch in October.
But Burke said she was “horrified” when she was accused of breaking up the Springwatch team and told Radio Times: “A friend texted me one Monday morning saying I was in the papers. Can you imagine the horror for me of apparently busting into the party and being blamed for breaking it up?
“I can totally understand why people would want to know where I’ve come from; the perception is that I’ve just shown up. But I’ve been doing this a long time.”
Who will co-host Springwatch 2017 with Gillian?
Springwatch makes its highly anticipated return to BBC Two next week.
Gillian will co-host the nature show with regular presenters Chris Packham, Michaela Strachan and Martin Hughes-Games.

Blue Peter presentation style is irksome - but I get the impression CP is sometimes self aware and tries to correct it.
Must be going mad as thought i'd commented on this thread what a shame it was that the knowledgable white guy who'd been on the programme for years was dumped in favour of political correctness and replaced by a bit of a numpty.
Anyone got sparrows visiting the garden - I've had a little colony on the feeders for the past few weeks. It's been a long time since so hopefully they are making a comeback.
Not watching it but I filled my kitchen window bird feeders today.
Peanuts, seeds and fat balls.
There's been a female Greater Spotted Woodpecker around recently.
Blue Tits like them.
Where are the Robins?

Magpie took a young blackbird from hedge witnessed by my next door neighbour.
Have hedgehogs that feed from a box in the garden where I have installed a camera. Watch the comings and goings each morning.
