    I heart Kate Humble, I hate Bill Oddie

    She's great. I was surprised to discover that she has no formal education with regards to her specialist field, but has merely began as a researcher on science and nature programmes. Maybe it's because she doesn't come across as a ditzy clothes horse like many TV presenters. She has the patience a wildlife observer needs, she proved it by working with Bill Oddie all that time without once giving in to the urge to grab him by the hair on the top of his head and smash his nose with her knee.

    It wasn't until I watched Springwatch that I realised what an unpleasant little turd Bill Oddie is.

      A son of a friend of my mothers worked on the set of Springwatch, and apparently BO was like that all the time, always making jokes of every situation and dismissive and belittling to people he didn't feel matched his intellect.

        Is this the great intellect which gave us such cultural high points as the Goodies?

          Yep. The Funky Gibbon and the martial art of Ecky Thump.

              Case for the prosecution.

                I think we need an amendment to the thread title.

                  I watch Animal Park when I go to the gym. It's good. Yesterday they had a rhino on who was older than me. It died.

                    Bill Oddie is an actual person? I thought he was just a joke on Alan Partridge.

                      He's not on Springwatch any more, though, is he? The last couple of series had Chris Packham, who's much, much better.

                        Chris Packham is an annoying little shit - always too pleased with his self-confessed geekiness and his knowledge of the Smiths. And he has two poodles for fucks sake.

                        And now they've got their very own James May-type in Martin Hughes-Games who is just as annoying.

                        I've never had a problem with Oddie - doesn't appear to suffer fools. As a lapsed and too infrequent birdwatcher myself I'd much prefer to be out and about with him...

                          Speaking as another lapsed and all too infrequent birdwatcher, I have to say that Bill Oddie's Little Black Bird Book is a very good read, and he was (is? I have no idea if he's still doing it) an entertaining columnist for one of the birding magazines too. However, by all accounts he's an incredibly difficult person to work with.

                            The Mail article they are referring to

                            He does seem not to suffer fools gladly and that obviously doesn't come across well on TV. Who knows why he did that disasterous "Never Mind The Buzzcocks" a few years ago

                            I really really fancy Kate Silverton

                              My cousin was doing some research on the family tree and the last pearl she came up with was a link to Bill Oddie.
