Monday’s opener included repeated jokey references to “tits” and “badgers”.

During the live show from a Suffolk nature reserve, Chris, 50, became excited about the variety of birds.

He said: “Great tits, great tits, wherefore art thou great tits?”

Michaela, also 50, joined in, saying: “They are tits, you are absolutely right. Great tits and blue tit nests.”

She later raised eyebrows with a suggestive gag about a badger.

After a film on the animals’ behaviour, she said she could “scratch her badger”, referring to the picture on her shirt.

Chris replied: “I don’t want to see you scratching that!”

Droves of viewers took to Twitter after picking up on the gags, some admitted playing innuendo bingo.

One wrote: “Never watched Springwatch before but we’ve just had Michaela Strachan scratching her badger and Chris Packham calling for great tits.”
