Autumnwatch coming to an end, ±«Óătv One, January 2023

Summary of complaint

We have received complaints about Autumnwatch coming to an end.


Our response

These are challenging times financially and we need to make difficult decisions and focus our resources on content that has the highest impact.

Sadly, this means that Autumnwatch will not be continuing. Instead, we are investing more money into Springwatch and Winterwatch, which will continue, as they are most popular with audiences. We remain committed to live natural history programming and recognise the importance audiences place on this, its value to society and the enjoyment it brings people in their lives.

We are incredibly proud of the Watches and would like to thank the presenters and production team who will continue on Springwatch when it returns in May for three weeks, and Winterwatch when it returns next year for one week, reduced from two weeks.
