Hi

For those interested, Bill Oddie is going to Vancouver Island, whale watching on BBC 2 on Tuesday, 8.30 GMT.

High numbers

Thanks will try and tune in.

Yep, the boy from the Midlands has come a long way from chasing giant white kittens....

...too true!

Where are Tim Brooke Taylor & Graham Garden (spelling?) now?

mkmurrays

Ah, still going strong. Radio 4 comedy quizes such as 'I Haven't A Clue', TV presenting on 'Beat the Nation'. Plus a bit of writing on the side and a touch of theatre.

Last thing I saw Tim Brooke Taylor in was "Me & My Girl"

Yes its beautiful were heading up that way on our reccie trip in March so cant wait weve narrowed the search down to there or victoria

Adbru

watched this the other night, thought it was pretty good

some scenic shots as he drove up to telegraph cove, he then took a grizzly watching trip (and gave the impression they were on VI ).

finished with him and the camera crew getting dropped off on a small island (ie a rock ) and waiting until the Orca came past.

some fab pictures and i quite like his style of presenting.

Could have done without the 10 mins discussing bigfoot and showing more of the island ??

Yep, thought it could've been done as a longer progamme, without any mention of Big Foot!
Liked it though - Bill Oddie's enthusiasm just shines through! We've been whale watching on the ocean and were lucky enough to have one swim right underneath our rib. Fantastic experience.
We want to go grizzly watching later this year.

...and I always think of giant fluffy white kittens!
