Springwatch Chris Packham The Smiths references

[Practising Troublemaker]

"Hilarious! Although perhaps in a few weeks, viewers might begin to think that that joke isn’t funny anymore."

You can tell Mr. Parkhouse, who wrote the article, must have been loving it when he came up with something as original as this!

Love PTxx.

Can't believe he missed TQID when talking about the Queen in the wasp's nest and how they die out. Still, the guy's a genius.

Don't worry, Badger put a similar link a few days ago in post #3. The secret's out
Can't believe Chris Packham is only two years younger than Morrissey. He'd pass for being in his thirties.

I can't believe no one has linked to the Guardian's blog post about this! It's a week old at this point but there were some very clever comments on it:

Is Chris Packham the lovechild of Jools Holland? The way he speaks and his mannerism would suggest so. Not a bad thing.

I haven't watched enough of Chris to compare, although he did say a couple things the other night similiar to Jools Holland when he used to present the Tube. It would be very unlikely that he is his father as Jools is only 3 years older than Chris

Chris just did it again When talking about rockpools he said "Kate...stop me if you think that you've heard this one before....". He is a class act

Extra good for me, as it was me who reminded them to tell people to put creatures back after rockpooling
