Behind the scenes of BBC Springwatch at RSPB Arne with Jack Baddams

[@marianholmes2906]

Brilliant whizz round, Jack. Thank you. There are lots of us who wish the Watches could go on for much longer than 3 weeks, or 1 week in the winter :( You work so hard and we all feel part of the story. Videos like this also help to bring us closer to how it all works. So thank you for a fabulous series and look forward to seeing you all in 2024 (2024 ? 😱)

Thank for letting us see behind the scenes, absolutely fascinating.

Excellent, thank you! Chris Packham had better watch his back - you are a natural presenter, Jack!

Excellent tour backstage of the mighty fine Springwatch

I saw the "village" just before Springwatch came on air as I visited Arne with members of my family and saw the huge array of marquees and it was fantastic to go obn a tour and see what they were all four and all the people we don't see on screen who are working hard as unsung heroes. Also I saw the red tanks and was hugely impressed that the power was produced by hydrogen which does not damage the environment on such a pristine site. Watch Chris Packham but don't miss the tour of the production team too.

Thank you Jack - wonderful to see what a huge operation it is. Would love to see a similar tour of the technicalities - how small are the remote nest cameras, how are the pictures fed back to the production vans, how long does it take to set up, and break down again afterwards?

Lovely. Very interesting thank you, and thanks for all you do to put the program on.

Good to see the mechanics behind Springwatch. And the rest!

[@user-gz4dn2rq9s]

Fascinating! I wonder how long it takes prior to the programme to set up all the hidden cameras?

I wish we'd seen inside the catering tent! I can't imagine doing all that work on an empty stomach! I do hope the food was totally vegan.

Thanks for your whistle stop tour of the site. I wish it was longer and I know you talked about being carbon neutral. It would have been fascinating to see how the site disposed of waste, domestic and human.
