His colleagues announced the sad news.
BBC presenter Chris Tynan, who worked on NatureWatch and Radio Merseyside, has d!ed.
His co-workers took to Threads to announce the tragic news as presenter Anno Brandreth wrote: “RIP Chris Tynan. Chris was a well loved and important part of the Naturewatch team and did great work locally to promote the things we love and are important to listeners.” Sharing a photo of Chris, they added: “He will be sadly missed and we will hopefully do something in a future broadcast to honour him, it is a sad day for us all. Chris is here on the left in his wonderful penguin jumper.”
Nature Watch was a regular feature on the BBC Radio Merseyside breakfast and weekend shows before it came to an end in 2023.

It appeared regularly on the Paul Beesley show and would often feature calls from listeners, and local experts discussing wildlife and gardening advice. Former clips are still available to stream on BBC Sounds and the BBC Merseyside Facebook page.
Chris was also a leader of the RSPB Liverpool, though he stepped down in April this year; the company shared a sweet message on their website in May as they praised Chris for his involvement.
They wrote: “The impact Chris has had on both the group and the people of Merseyside more widely cannot be understated, and we will forever be in his debt. Chris has played a huge part in shaping many people’s love for birds and wildlife, inspiring us all to appreciate nature in every aspect.”
They added: “The entire group would like to thank Chris for his dedication over many years. Chris will continue to lead the outdoor meetings until December, so there is still time to thank him in person! You will be sorely missed, but you are more than welcome back at any time!”
Chris announced the news himself earlier this year and provided photos on his Instagram of his final day, which featured a cake with binoculars that read “thank you Chris!”.
He was inundated with comments at the time, with one reading: “Well done Chris, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip up in Merseyside with you.” Another said: “Proud of you.”
A final, now poignant comment, read: “Oh you will be missed Chris. Thank you for everything.”

“NO ONE SHOULD BE SLEEPING ON THE STREETS.” Bradley Walsh has reportedly given away every penny of his £2 million bonus and sponsorship earnings — not for publicity, not for praise, but to build 150 housing units and fund 300 emergency shelter beds for people with nowhere to go. Those close to him say the decision was made quietly, without cameras or announcements. “Bradley didn’t see it as charity,” one source revealed. “He saw it as responsibility.” At a time when most stars protect their wealth, Walsh’s gesture has stunned fans — not because of its size, but because of its sincerity.
