Between 26th May 2020 and 30th June 2020, Channel 5 in the UK aired 6-episodes in which presenter Ben Fogle revisits people he originally visited in earlier episodes of Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild. These 6-episodes form the second series of the spin-off programme Ben Fogle: Return to the Wild. Despite the opening titles reading Ben Fogle: Return to the Wild and the end credits including credits for Return to the Wild crew alongside credits for the original episode crew, on their website Channel 5 have labelled these 6 episodes as the 12th series of Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild and the series commencing 5th January 2021 as series 13. However, IMDb lists them as series 2 of Ben Fogle: Return to the Wild and the series commencing in January 2021 as series 12 of Ben Fogle: New Lives in the Wild.
