A PBS and BBC partnership, Autumnwatch: New England, featuring New Hampshire people, places and events will air Wednesday through Friday 8 to 9 p.m.
Travel expert Samantha Brown, BBC presenter Chris Packham and wildlife cinematographer Bob Poole will host the multi-platform television experience from alongside Squam Lake. Similar in format to PBS’ previous summer spectacles Big Blue Live and Wild Alaska Live, the new series will include a mix of live feeds and pre-taped footage from across New England.
Unique to Autumnwatch: New England, the live event will focus on cultural traditions and historical sites in addition to local wildlife and the colorful gold and red landscapes in the region that’s best known for them.
Pete Perkins, a moose biologist from the University
of New Hampshire, will go with Bob Poole on a moose excursion in Jericho State Park.
The show plans to check out the Laconia pumpkin festival, leaf-peeping in the White Mountains and hawk migration in Miller State Park.
