Yes a very good 1st episode. Reeves has been around the world in many situations so is a good presenter as he has seen a lot and not just out of a cosy tv studio as other presenters tend to be.
Couldn’t agree more and gets the very best from all the people he meets because he makes it about them rather than himself unlike many of the bigger celebrity presenters.
Huge respect for the lad loosing both his parents within a year and keeping he farm going aged 18.

Heard him interviewed on radio a month or two back.Yes just checked on it , will look tomorrow, ironic thing was I just put one of his previous programs on at 9pm because there was nothing on to watch
His own life story/career path is pretty interesting too.

Just follow this tweet and read the comments. Tells you all you need to know about the respect Simon Reeve is held in.
I sincerely hope Angus the young farmer gets the support he needs and feel sure he will succeed. He certainly has some great “true” friends.

I thought it was a good program and well done to that young lad.
God I hate the word 'rewilding' though!
it will be just 1 wild fire away from a complete disaster

Reeves is one of the best! Watched him from the very beginning, very intelligent. Comes across so passionate and switched on
