    For any lovers of wildlife and the countryside the second part of a ten part programme called Johnny's New Kingdom is on BBC2 at 8.30pm.The first part was on last night and the second one is tonight.

    Should be worth watching for the wildlife and the beauty of Exmoor [​IMG]

    We shall have to tape it as we are well into Ice Road Truckers on Channel five at 8pm so it will clash. :rolleyes:

    Pal,we have stood on the same bridge that Johnny stood on last night but hadn't got the patience to stand there for three hours.Well we had the patience but the dog hadn't and couldn't understand why we wanted to stand there. :D

    I expect the Otters might visit his pond if there is fish in it,but all the Otters we have ever seen apart from one at the RSPB reserve at Leighton Moss were in sea water,never seen one as yet in a river.

    Pro,I love his ways especially when he had Bambi and Tommy the Buzzard :cool:
