Just one of those "nice" bits of TV that doesn't really try to be anything it isn't. No false jeopardy or annoying commentary stating the bleedin' obvious.

The trailer did make me wonder if there was some mission creep that might ruin a wonderful show. I really hope not.

Great show but getting a bit worried with Bob falling down all the time (especially in the sea!)

I caught the last 10 minutes, what an embarrassment, seems like they were put together to perform and just don't.

have you watched any of the others, their chemistry is great, and some of their (sensible / mens health) conversations are quite deep.

Each to their own of course but don't dismiss too easily, I urge you!

Bob’s cack handed rod skills give me the arse! You would think by series four he would have the hang of holding the rod correctly.

Me and my wife have watched them all and think they're great together. Maybe you need to watch more than the last 10 mins to get into the vibe of it and the back story?

That's not in the script.

This. Some of it is a bit inane because that’s what even talented witty people are like some of the time. It is very easy on the eye and ear. It is a welcome distraction into a bit of harmless silliness. TMS is similar much of the time. Not the likes of Vaughan trying to ham it up, but Vic Marks for example, a journeyman cricketer with a broad outlook on life and some spontaneous wit and insight.

Yeah, Bob needs to get a stunt double for riverbanks and rockpools. 🙂

Nope.

Way off the mark imo. Genuine life long friends who turned a real event (Paul getting Bob out of the house after life threatening surgery and a lack of confidence) into TV. Listen to the audiobook too.

But if it's not for you, it's not for you.

Just watched it - lovely easy watching telly.

His clumsiness aside, there seems a real melancholy to Bob, not sure if it's anxiety after his health scare, always been there after the death of his dad maybe.

It's one of those series where you can rewatch many times without getting bored of it.

Stunning scenery and those sea trout were beautiful. I am still to catch one.

I once had a VCR which had the timer set by selecting the programme on Ceefax. Fancy. Unfortunately, the timer appeared to have the millennium bug as it never worked from the year 2000 onwards.
