Simon King, Johnny Kingdom and Ray Mears get my vote.

I don't have a lot of time for Oddie or that Bear Grylls bloke. Some of the stuff Bear Grylls does is informative but what a plonker, he sure loves himself.

I also like watching Hugh Fearnly Whittingstall's programmes.

How about Simon Cowell? No not the X Factor one...the one from Wildlife SOS.
I know he's not the conventional presenter, but you always feel that what you see is what you get. He's very pasionate about his cause and slightly quirky or eccentric. I also know he rights his own blog and invites people to contact him, so he comes across as a real person if that makes sense. I've added the link to his blog just so you can see what I'm talking about

Problem I have with presenters are those that that spend too much time presenting themselves and not the programme! And whilst Kate Humble fits into that category, anyone who can deal with the loose cannon that is Bill Oddie (who isn't so much a presenter but is great value as an entertainer) whilst the director will be screaming in her ear to get back on topic, can't be all bad!

My vote goes to Simon King and Michaela Strachen (of Scouting For Girls fame with that hidden track! Brilliant!) who both get on with presenting, listening to others, reacting to what is going on and aren't afraid to get involved

I assume you are being ironic here. I can't imagine a worse presenter than BO and Kate is getting as bad now. I just can't watch Autumn/Spring Watch because of the presenters, it absolutely ruins what could be an excellent programme.

Have to go along with Wild Canon here. I too have trouble watching Spring and Autumn Watch because of Bill Oddie, ok, so he might know what he's on about, but as for presenting - Errrrrrr no. Simon King is by far the best presenter here, much more mature in his approach and knowledge on the subject. At least Simon don't have any interuptions from Oddie like Kate does.
