I settled down to watch monkey world as usual 11pm , at the end I was shocked to see in memory of Jim Cronin. I read all the news papers and here we are 1 yr on and I have just learned .I am very sad and send my sincere condolences to his wife Alison whom he clearly adored, his family and all the staff at Monkey World

I only discovered it recently as well and all the "monkey world 10 years" shows and "monkey life" have a notice about Jim at the end of them

it shows how little the news people care really

i neevr saw anything on tv on his 1st anniversary
deeply sad

I'm sorry but you are so wrong there, people do care but with the world news this day and age there are more important things going on and I'm even sure that Jim would have agreed

I THINK IT IS DISGRACEFUL ALL THE HARD WORK JIM AND ALISON DO AND I HAVE JUST FOUND OUT HE HAS DIED THERE WAS ALL THE NEWS AND TV ON STEVE URWIN WHO TOO WAS A GREAT MAN SO WHY WAS THERE NOTHING ABOUT JIM I WAS VERY SHOCKED WHEN I WATCHED MONKEY WORLD AND WAS TOLD HE HAD PASSED AWAY ALL MY LOVE AND THOUGHTS ARE WITH ALISON AND THE STAFF AT MONKEY WORLD KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL WORK YOU DO

the news these days are full of garbage
but at least some people care

Hi Christine,

Planning to adopt next month when we are going for a visit. Do you know if they are going to carry on filming? The programme yesterday was about Jim's death, so sad, really felt for Alison, she is some lady with a lot of guts so I am sure that her and Jeremy will carry on Jim's last wishes.
