Wildlife presenter Chris Packham leafs through the Living World archives, revisiting classic episodes and bringing them up to dateFor over half a century, landmark natural history series Living World has provided an inspiring introduction to the flora and fauna of Great Britain and beyond. Filmed on location at key ecological sites, it sees BBC wildlife presenters joined by guest experts for enthusiastic discussions and close encounters with our native wildlife.These classic archive programmes have all been specially selected by Chris Packham, who introduces each episode and gives us an overview of the places, people and species featured on the show. Twenty are hosted by veteran broadcaster Lionel Kelleway, with the remaining two presented by Brett Westwood. Accompanied by ornithologists, biologists and a host of other specialists, they take us on a tour around the British Isles in search of amazing plants and animals.Among their discoveries are swifts, stag beetles, sticklebacks and red squirrels - as well as the endangered white-clawed crayfish; the slumbering dormouse or ''seven-moth sleeper''; the diminutive wren (known as the King of the Birds) and the under-appreciated wasp (more benign and beneficial than people realise). In addition, they hunt for crabs in a Scottish rockpool; take a festive look at mistletoe; await the arrival of roosting rooks and listen to the call of the booming bittern.Full of fascinating facts and surprising stories, this carefully curated collection will transport you to Britain''s mountains, moorlands, woodlands and coasts, immersing you in the wonder and importance of our natural world.Production creditsProduced by Andrew DawesEpisode guideFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on the following dates:Swifts 3 May 2015Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Chris PerrinsMayfly and the Chalkstream 12 July 2015Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Mike LadleThe Stag Beetle Hunt 26 July 2015Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Jonathon Spencer and Roger KeyThe Seven-Month Sleeper 11 October 2015Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Michael WoodsWater Vole 18 October 2015Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Rob StrachanLichens of Scotland 25 October 2015Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Brian and Sandy CoppinsHerons 8 November 2015Presented by Lionel KellewayThe Wader with the Crest 10 January 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Andy WilsonA Life of Slime 17 January 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Mary SeddonRooks and a Winter Roost 24 January 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Joe Cullum and Ian HendersonSticklebacks 12 June 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Iain BarberThe Highland Midge 19 June 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Alison BlackwellThe Ways of the Wasp 21 August 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Tom IngsCatching Crabs 11 September 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Stephen WisemanCrayfish 4 December 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Martin FraylingRed Squirrels 11 December 2016Presented by Brett Westwood with Jason ReynoldsA Very Berry Christmas 18 December 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Jonathan BriggsWren Hunt 25 December 2016Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Matthew EvansFieldfares in a Winter Orchard 1 January 2017Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Steve Dodd and Dave CockerFreshwater Pearl Mussels 5 March 2017Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Mary SeddonToads (The Toad) 12 March 2017Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Julia WycherleyBooming Bitterns 19 March 2017Presented by Brett Westwood with Ian Hawkins and Ken Smith© 2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.

Wildlife presenter Lindsey Chapman relives selected archive highlights from the popular nature seriesFor over five decades, Living World has been introducing audiences to the astonishing diversity of British wildlife. Its veteran presenters have travelled the length and breadth of the British Isles, venturing far and wide with their microphones to immerse the listener and capture the excitement of getting close to nature.Hosted by Lionel Kelleway, Brett Westwood, Peter France and Michael Scott, these 15 archive episodes are hand-picked by Lindsey Chapman, who also gives an introduction to each one, bringing us up to date on developments since the initial broadcast. Recorded on location in some very special places, from South Harris in the Outer Hebrides to the River Exe in Devon, the programmes all feature guest experts with specialist knowledge of the local environment and its flora and fauna.Guiding our presenters through a particular habitat, they discuss the species who have made it their home, and set out to track them down. While a quest to find the great yellow bumblebee proves problematic, they revel in seeing a hen harrier on the wing; encounter the world''s largest slug; experience a remarkable raven roost and catch a rare glimpse of wild boar. Plus, they discover the biology behind pigeon migration; learn why jays are key to the rejuvenation of the UK''s forests and take a timeline walk from sea edge to dry land along Dungeness'' shifting shingles.Full of amazing sights, sounds and stories, this specially curated collection will take you on an awe-inspiring journey through Britain''s natural world, and encourage you to embark on your own wildlife adventures.Production creditsProduced by Andrew DawesEpisode guideFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4 on the following dates:The Machair of the Western Isles 10 June 2018Presented by Brett Westwood with Martin ScottCatch the Pigeon 17 June 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Chris ArmstrongWoolston Eyes 24 June 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Brian MartinBlackbirds 1 July 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Will CresswellHen Harrier 23 September 2018Presented by Brett Westwood wth Iolo WilliamsThe World''s Largest Slug 30 September 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with John WaltersUnderwater Architects 7 October 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Ian WallaceThe Oak Tree Planters 14 October 2018Presented by Brett Westwood with John TulleyDungeness 21 October 2018Presented by Peter France with Erica Towner and David HarperAvocet 9 December 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Malcom DaviesCaledonian Pine Forest 16 December 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Roy DennisWinter Ravens 23 December 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Leo Smith and Tom WallWild Boar 30 December 2018Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Dr Martin GouldingThe Green Isle 3 March 2019Presented by Michael Scott with Dave Dick and Peter MooreStoats 11 March 2019Presented by Lionel Kelleway with Robbie MacDonald and Becky Wright© 2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.
