Its such a shame because the radio series was great. I think it just doesn't translate to TV.

Same goes for 'People like us'. Hilarious on Radio 4, not so great on BBC 2.

# the radio show had a certain authentic Radio 4 Documentary
feel about it, which the TV show lacked.

# Indeed I miss the Wilderbeast Years and Milton Jones
both of which were stunning, though I have some of the episodes on mp3, no where near enough.
