The wife and I watched over in France and thoroughly enjoyed, as we have all their other episodes. I am a huge Chris Rea fan, one of my favourite albums is Deltics, a wonderful listen and that is exactly what we did once the programme had finished. One of the times I saw Chris Rea was a few days prior to Christmas in Stoke, what a concert that was! Sad to hear him tell what he has been through but a least his elbows aren't touching wood.

Watched it last night with the good wife.... we both throughly enjoyed it...such a beautiful and calm hour....in this day and age a rare hour of pure indulgence...brought a tear to the eye and a warm glow inside...far removed from the madness of carp angling thats for sure lol

Same as that. Wife and I watched it last night on iPlayer. Perfect hour of relaxation, and some really good chuckles.
Even my sister, who has absolutely zero interest in fishing, posted about it on FB.
Superb TV compared to a lot of the other dribble that's on these days.

I hope that Paul's reaction to his Christmas gifts from Bob wasn't staged as it was genuinely lovely. What a great show.

So far removed from my version “wayne and friends gone fishing” in which I never catch anything, sit under the flight path of an airport, each pot noodles and slag everyone else off.

It's nice to see so many forum posts in agreement with each other. It's a Christmas miracle

I also thoroughly enjoyed it!

It is a nice place, fished the breakwater and the rock gullies a few times in the past. We stayed in the cottage next door some years ago, certainly can't remember it being as nice as their cottages.
The village is currently split in half, the Cowbar side, where they stayed, is in tier 3, and across the beck, Staithes is in tier 2.
A delightful show, good to see them showing the north east in a positive light.

Watched the episode, thoroughly enjoyed it. A bit of normality and chat, about all sorts of things amongst 2 good mates

Wrote it for van morrison but never got it to him so only released it himself ten years after writing the lyrics when he got the music to go with it.
