Snakes alive – Steve Backshall's back to collect degree
Intrepid wildlife expert Steve Backshall yesterday ventured into the tame climes of Exeter University to be honoured by the institution where he once graduated.
The BBC wildlife presenter, who has visited 101 countries and caught more than 500 snakes, attended a ceremony at the university where he once studied English and drama.
