Springwatch

[Chris G]

Anyone watching this? If so do you know what make/type of coat Simon King is wearing?

Just curious.

That guy is great! Springwatch definately rates as a top Bushcrafty type viewing sort of programme... Better than Ray touring oz' or Bear whats his face!!
Not sure what jacket it is, but the blonde was wearing one of those nice green Berghaus RG
jackets that highstreet are selling a bit cheaper at the mo.

I'm glad they finally got rid of Bill Oddie... Not sure what Simon was wearing, but it's got the look of a WestWinds ventile about it, going by the front zip, the collar, and the cuffs. Wouldn't surprise me if it's a bespoke number.

BO is off with depression which is why he is not doing it this year.

I've come to the conclusion that we are a bunch of peculiar people. I saw him as wel, chasing the little marter, and all I was focusing upon was his jacket.. So come on, what is it (the label on his sleeve ended in something like ..LOGY, which might be something unrelated like BIOLOGY?)

Well in that case he certainly has my sympathies, but I can't say I'll miss him.

LOL - not just me then!

 

[gregorach]

Well, I noticed it enough to recognise several design features, so no, not just you...

 

[SimonM]

Just had a laugh at this, as I too was wondering what he was wearing....

...great minds think alike!

It is similar in style to the SAS jacket, but with internal chest pockets as oppossed to the usual type.

I think the jacket he was wearing was one of these.

Well found sir!

Thank you sir my mate had a look at one at the outdoor show I was not to sure about the hood design myself.

 

[Asa Samuel]

BO is gone? But I liked him That stupid woman kept talking over him on every sentence! grr.

I'd rather look at Kate Humble anyday but I heard Mr Oddie has been admitted to a psychiatric ward for treatment for his depression again.

Maybe he'll make an appearance later if all goes well.


EDIT:

Sorry Chris , just realised you'd already mentioned that :sulkoff:

Bill Oddie was on Springwatch I only ever saw Kate Humble.

Kate Humble's OK, but a bit 'jolly hockey sticks'!
