Episode 1

Springwatch is back! Chris Packham, Michaela Strachan and Martin Hughes-Games kick off an action-packed wildlife extravaganza, live from RSPB Minsmere reserve in Suffolk. Iolo Williams arrives on the Farne Islands in Northumberland, the UK's answer to the Galapagos, and his home for the next three weeks. After a strange start to our spring, this year promises to be unmissable. Last year it was Spineless Simon, the Stickleback, but who will be this year's star of the show?
