im watching the pre-new season of the show documentary of The Rod Race as i type - A proper nostalgia trip. It reminds us of fishing before the days of over the top shouting/chavvy content we get now.

Always enjoyed their stuff, my favourite moment from previous shows would be Mick's reaction to capturing the 40lb+ carp.

You and me both, I think industry has made a great mistake there and I think they'll come back to them, hopefully Matt will see the appeal of the wider audience instead of spiting them, but they are right, media platforms are the future...or are they....Whitehouse/Mortimer...hmm
I'm half way through that programme above, that RR music is so evocative, even today it relaxes me The Mrs and I usually watch the DVDs at xmas, I think M/W is quite similar in many ways, probably why the format works.

I was following their fundraising efforts to finance the show so very much looking forward to watching it. Matt along woth John Wilson were the people that initally got me hooked watching their shows. Apparently as they are no longer relevant (quoting what Matt said) they couldn't get the support from the industry which surprised me but then again most companies make their own material now in house so why would they fund these

Not seen it mentioned but theirs a new series of the Rod Race with Matt Hayes/Mick Brown coming out, exclusively to Youtube.
While I'm sure there are a lot of older anglers who remember all the series from the 90's onwards I'm sure there are some younger ones on here who've never even heard of it.
In any case, Matt's put up a trailer sort of thing, showing clips from the past and I assume clips from the future (not watched it yet), 35 minutes of nostalgia and looking forward of things to come. I'm certainly looking forward to it
