To take a breather - rumoured replacements are Simon ** THUD ** King, Alan Titchmarsh, Gordon Buchanan and Ben Fogle.

Personally, I think Mike Dilger's a good bet.....

Reading that Mr Oddie is leaving Springwatch was like a breath of fresh air, maybe he reads our forum and as at last got the message :lol: :D

John,

And what would Deano be President of? :lol:

Let's have John Walker MBE as Mr Oddie's replacement.

Regarding the replacement for Bill Oddie as Springwatch presenter :
We could even get that other over-exposed and under-talented BBC employee - JONATHAN ROSS!
Who knows, he may well push Natural History family connections to land the job (Ross's Gull, Ross's Goose, etc.)
I am sure he would relish a one-off Springwatch nature visit to a well known local Sewage Treatment Works where he would quite literally enjoy going through the motions in the hope of picking up BRAND new material for his Friday Night TV programme - although it's already said to be brimming with undiluted excritement (sorry, my typing finger slipped - I meant undiluted excitement.....I think.)

Regards,

Freddy
