Stavross 13,738 Posted March 12, 2023 Report Share Posted March 12, 2023 What I read this morning was the guardian reported it was a 6 episode series and they pulled the 6th, the bbc say is a 5 episode series and the other is a separate film made with the RSPB and WWF, so that will be a film blaming everyone else apart from themselves for the state of nature in this land 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Borr 4,499 Posted March 12, 2023 Report Share Posted March 12, 2023 Right wing backlash is code for normal folk who can't even enjoy a nature program without Attenborough doomsaying and telling us all how awful we are etc. I think he's done a lot to bring understanding of nature, my kids love his programs but I feel they've lost some of the excitement as I'm always waiting for the gloom... Hopefully this British isles series is of the usual standard . I won't be watching the episode made by WWF and rspb. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
