Chris Packham relives programmes from The Living World archives.

In the early 1980's Norfolk farmer Chris Skinner had a natural history epiphany. He had inherited and ran a profitable mixed farm and shoot. Then following a successful shooting day a chance comment began a life changing moment. From that day the farm was managed with wildlife in mind. Visiting in 1995, Lionel Kelleway joins Chris in his farmhouse kitchen to discuss a wildlife watching day across his one square mile of Norfolk.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
