Living World - Liverpool Brownfield


LIVING WORLD - LIVERPOOL BROWNFIELD (320kbs-m4a/50mb/22mins)

BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 1st November 2015

Chris Packham relives programmes from The Living World archives.

In this programme recorded in 1993, Lionel Kelleway is joined by Gary Clennan and pioneer of restoration ecology the late Tony Bradshaw, at a rubble strewn wasteland in Liverpool. As Shakespeare said, "all the World is a stage, all the men and women merely players", which sets the scene for Lionel to discover the process of habitat restoration in an urban landscape. Along the way Lionel, Gary and Tony are in search of nature's actors, performing in a wildlife play about scavengers, opportunists and colonisers.
