Red deer, wild geese, otters, owls and the odd pine marten are a few of the potential stars of this year’s Autumnwatch.
They are all on the wish list of Chris Packham and his fellow hosts, Michaela Strachan, Gillian Burke and Iolo Williams, as they venture to the Scottish Highlands for the 2019 run.
The team will be broadcasting live from Cairngorms National Park, where they were based for Springwatch, and Chris is already getting excited. ‘I’ve grown up in the south of England, so the Cairngorms are an exotic environment for me,’ says the presenter, who lives in the New Forest, Hampshire.

What do you like most about Autumn?
