I quite like Chris Packham

Is it just me or is there something about Chris Packham. I've never really taken much notice of him before, but in another life I think I would!

To all those hating on Packham for his demeanour/voice etc. he has publicly declared that he has Aspergers, and this will affect his body language, tone of voice etc.

I didn't like him before I knew this, and I am not going to suddenly like him now.

I liked Terry Nutkin on The Really Wild Show. Anyone else?

I have an ex who managed to convince a lot of people that Terry Nutkin was his dad as they looked so similar.

Yes I loved him, didn't he have a seal in his bath? 🤔
Wonder whatever happened to him.

Random fact - Terry Nutkin went to work with Gavin Maxwell (and the otters), of ‘Ring of Brightwater’ fame, as a teen.

Yes you've made your feelings on autistic people quite clear.

No, not feeling on autistic people just feelings on Chris Packham.
I remember the documentary on him. My parents told me that I was just like him growing up, and that he reminded them of me even now.

I met Terry Nutkins once at a beer festival. He was lovely, spent ages chatting to us. Both his middle fingers had been bitten off by otters. I never knew until then how vicious otters are.
