A TV producer behind Sir David
Attenborough's acclaimed
documentaries told a family 'I want you to die'
as he tried to place them under citizen's arrest in an extraordinary
road rage tirade.
Wildlife producer
and director Fergus Beeley shocked a family on Saturday when he got out
of his car on the M27 in Hampshire and launched into an explosive rant.
Simon
Gale, 33, who was driving the other car involved, said Mr Beeley flew
into a 'raving state' after both cars were forced to pull over at the
side of the motorway.
Mr Beeley was heard calling the family 'w******' and 's****' and telling them to 'get back in the car before you die'.
Police
were called to the row close to Southampton Airport but said two men
involved - believed to be Mr Beeley and Mr Gale - made allegations of
assault against eachother but both decided not to pursue a complaint.
The award-winning film maker has worked for the BBC since
1989 and helped produce some of Sir David Attenborough's most memorable
natural history programmes for the BBC including Life of Birds and
Planet Earth: The Future.
