If you read it carefully then you will see that the BBC have apparently invented a new newt, the ‘grey crested newt’. This isn’t a misprint as it appears in the photo caption too.
They mean GREAT crested newts of course, the total WAZARKS!

I bet you wouldn’t have made a mistake if the story was about a "celebrity" or someone off a reality TV programme.
