Did anyone watch Springwatch, or are you all footie fans?

Simon King has been in Kimmeridge all week and broadcast from under the bay last night, great live tv.

They showed film of Swanage Pier as well, which is dear to many of us, site of my first open dive a while back, a very fond memory.
If you were watching, what was was that small orange male fish called, missed it's name while thinking of my first open water!!

Best bit it was mixed viz and deteriorating while live, so shows folks how the world is alot of the time in the UK not blue water as many of the glossy shots for PR are!

It was good tv and made we want to grab my kit and drive down to Dorset, just work, family life etc. that gets in the way, and lack of an instant buddy at 9pm on a Wdnesday night of course.

Any one else watch it at all?

I only caught some of it but he was looking at a Black Faced Blenny at one point. Vivid Yellow body with Black head/gills.
