Episode 1

Chris Packham, Michaela Strachan and Gillian Burke have travelled to New Hampshire as billions of trees across New England turn into a riot of yellows, reds and golds.

Autumnwatch is back, but this time with a difference. For the first time ever the team are coming live from another country - America - to bring one of the greatest autumn spectacles on the planet to Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Two.

Every year six billion trees across New England turn into a riot of yellows, reds and golds, and Chris Packham, Michaela Strachan and Gillian Burke have travelled to New Hampshire to beam live pictures of this phenomenon back to the UK. These forests are home to myriad of wild animals too, from moose to black bear, bobcat to beaver, so there are a whole host of new characters to meet on the live cameras, as well as some more familiar faces like red fox, red and grey squirrels and deer.

The team has also been out filming all over New England in advance, and Chris and Michaela jumped in a car to join the tourists, or 'leaf-peepers' on a whistle-stop tour of the classic New England sights.
