Screaming reels

[Wanderer]

It might just be me, but during the time of its original transmission I thought that Screaming reels was something of a curates egg..........good in parts....
I'll give it another try to see if I think any differently.

Three episodes watched so far,enjoyable if a little quirky.Makes a great change from the "full on" brash type of fishing programme.

The programmes move so fast, that if a segment is not to your taste, just wait a few minutes...I find them quite watchable, it seems to take all aspects of fishing equally seriously, or not, as the case might be.

There is also "fast forward" should a segment not please.....

Quirky but somehow addictive - I love it.

Thanks for the heads up Terry, I watched the 1st episode again today and can honestly say I really don't remember it being this good. I am really looking forward to watching the rest of them.

Its funny, when it first came out, I really didn't like it.
Up to episode 7 now and loving it!
Lots of interesting little snippets to.
A good all round, light hearted program covering all aspects of angling.

Nope, I don't get it now, as I didn't then, it is still crap.
I gave up at part 3, and I had to fast forward most of it.

I have finished watching the two series of Screaming Reels on More4 and loved the vast majority of them. I must admit that I have forgotten about Judy Pascoe's fishing video reviews and still have a little flutter of love/lust when the three American girls say "Y'all come back and see us" - be still my beating heart.

The barbel school was watched on a VHS recording, on many occasions back in the '90's as it was part of the lure that brought me to the river, and Peter Stone with his unique voice and amusing anecdote. It's great TV.

I am, however, a little confused. I recall items that haven't appeared in the two series now available and, I cannot find any trace of a series 3. What happened to (I believe) Judy Pascoe again but doing something about cooking? I recall her beating the crap out of an old oven during the segment's intro and being scared by a wasp - anybody?

Also, where was the episode with Ray Walton as he rolled meat on the Hampshire Avon? There were also little quotes (usually from the East) about fishing on the show. I'm pretty certain that it's where I first saw one of my favourite little pearls, "How you fish alone is how you truly fish".

Anyhow, does anybody else share my scattered memory?

[Grumpy]

I do believe there was a third series.I seem to remember Nick Fisher Pike fishing with Max Cottis,then again my memory isn't was it what!
