You really liked Springwatch Unsprung, our little 15-minute post-show, informal-to-the-point-of-slightly-bonkers, audience-led, interactive live discussion programme, which followed the main Springwatch show on Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Red Button. That's what you said when we asked you for your thoughts and ideas at the end of Springwatch 2009.

Well, the powers that be at the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú liked it too. They were particularly impressed by the way you, the viewers, made the show yours with your excellent questions and thought-provoking messageboard discussions and blog comments.
I'm therefore delighted to announce that Autumnwatch 2009 is going to have its own "Autumnwatch Unsprung", this time - as you requested - on Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú TWO (not Red Button) and for a full half hour. Congratulations - you've got yourself a re-commission! That's people power .....
Autumnwatch Unsprung now forms a permanent part of the new, re-shaped and re-formatted Autumnwatch 2009. For those of you who didn't catch any of the "Springwatch Unsprungs", Martin Hughes-Games chairs as our presenters answer audience questions, give more in-depth analysis on current themes, and reveal more of what goes on behind the scenes.
The success of Autumnwatch Unsprung relies entirely on the quality and volume of your questions, observations and contributions, so please join in right now.
Each week we'll have a special blog where you can post your questions direct to the team. There's even an easy short-cut link to this on our homepage and index pages.
Martin and the team will also be monitoring what's going on on the messageboards and keeping and eye out for the best of your Home Movies and autumn photos, uploaded to our Autumnwatch Flickr site.
So please get posting, debating, asking, filming and photographing so we get the first Autumnwatch Unsprung off to a flying start ..... it's all yours.
