I do hope this story is true! But you are such a tease, Cuch, most of your stories collapse under the slightest scrutiny!
Of course, it's not true.  But it's not on the BBC 6 o'clock news.

BBC will not broadcast Attenborough episode over fear of rightwing backlash

https://www.theguardian.com/media/2023/ ... lash-fears

A sixth episode has also been filmed, which is understood to be a stark look at the losses of nature in the UK and what has caused the declines. It is also understood to include some examples of rewilding, a concept that has been controversial in some rightwing circles.
From archive.org last year, before The Guardian and Cuch started making up stories, https://web.archive.org/web/20220827190 ... wild-isles

…five-part series…

You’ve got to try harder, Cuch!!

The magazine reported one source saying Murdoch had become uncomfortable about 66-year-old Smith's evangelical views.

I have got my woke certificate and 20% off discount voucher from North Face! Which is ironic since I don't want to buy any equipment from them and hang around on mountain sides with all the privileged people.

One of the most salient features of our culture is that there is so much bullshit. Everyone knows this. […] But we tend to take the situation for granted. […] In consequence, we have no clear understanding of what bullshit is, why there is so much of it, or what functions it serves.
