Got to get one mines just cotton and I can get stung through it. I also didn't know swarms are full of bees with full tummies so are very aggressive!

just as the woman who had her house invaded by bees, was going to say how she had just found out how mavellous bees are ... Jeremy cut her off.

obviously the beek who came to her house knew how to convince the public...
and a good news story is not what jeremy and his producers wanted

yes, here on iPlayer

Devolving Power to the North and the Menace of Amateur Beekeepers

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05tkv80

it starts at about 34 minutes in, finishes at 59 minutes where he finds a "bees nest"

"he had a haz mat suit on, bio-warfare, and you couldn't see his face, and he was in his 70s!"

"his child hood flashed before his eyes..... when he was enfulfed in a swarm, but he wasn't stung"

it's comedy!
