Plenty of examples of where nature programmes have highlighted damage caused by "invasive alien species".
All six were made by Silverback Films, not the BBC. There are different statements on why the extra episode is not being shown on a linear channel. From The Guardian "Senior sources at the BBC told the Guardian that the decision not to show the sixth episode was made to fend off potential critique from the political right." The BBC denies this.

Not sure why the Chairman of the BBC needs to hold the same political views as the Prime Minister. Surely you pick the best person for the job, not ask your mates down the pub who's up for it?
