Simon Reeve - Russia BBC2

[See-Goals]

Off topic. Has anyone watched Earthflight on BBC2 ?

How do they film this?

Amazing stuff. And birds that can fly 1500 miles non stop!
Good thing they didn't film anything flying over Malta as some of the morons who call themselves hunters blast at anything that flies. 15 protected species shot in September!

Very enjoyable and informative. Also recommend the recent Channel 4 series with the guy who walked from Russia to Iran through the Caucuses ... that was excellent too.

Yup. I enjoyed that too. We always end up watching Simon Reeve. The Mrs insists.

 

[Surf's Up]

Wasn't he in Brookside or am I confusing him with someone else

It was indeed. Still got last one to catch up on.

On the subject of the Simon Reeve programme, I bet. Te Russian police can't wait for the World Cup.

Good watch, that. Huge BBC bias there. I love Simon Reeve too - shame!

I would be very wary of that Graham Phillips, he claims to be crowdfunded but the crowd who fund him are overwhelmingly tied to the Kremlin

I guess the reality is somewhere down the middle

Interesting. Do you have a sauce for that or some info on the Kremlin backed crowd who fund him?

Really enjoyed this. There was a lot packed in to the episode.

The Congo looked utterly brutal. The whole insect thing would've sent me doolally. I can take hard slogs, humid weather, the torrential rain, but those tiny little flies would've done me in

A bit of salt easily gets rid of those, no matter how hard.

Christ it took me a while to get that one fella I'm not use to subtlety on NSC!

Levison Wood, yes, that was another great series.

Would have thought visa's in some countries would be impossible for him now as he was a Captain in the parachute regiment.
