Never liked the bloke much before, but sat watching Wild Swimming with Robson Green now and developing some respect for him.

I LOVE open water swimming and would really like to be doing some of those swims (maybe not the Snowdon swim without the wetsuit though...)

He's a bit of a cock but i have some respect for him swimming in that cold lake.

Looking forward to the Holy Island swim - been surfing near there at Bamburgh on boxing day a few years back.

Nice, wasn't it? 😀

As a long-term member of Henleaze Swimming Club it was great to see the place & people I know.....

last year we were using hostels in scotland.
a couple of blokes in the dorm were swimming loads of lochs from the bottom to the top of scotland, and were cycling in between them.

tough barstewards.
