Bruce and Walker

I was idly channel-hopping the other day when one of those tedious "Made in Britain" shows came on. I was too lazy even to flick over, and to my relief this one was not presented by the intolerable bald greengrocer.
Part two of the show was dedicated to the manufacture of a Bruce and Walker carbon rod, in this case a salmon rod. "quite interesting".
I thought I would do my bit for you all and track down a link, but it is not listed in ITVX or anywhere I can find! It was shown on ITV4, Tuesday 16th at 16:25.

I turned over to see it when I saw it adverised, and then realised it was about making carbon rods, so quickly turned back to The Kenny Everett Video show. Classic !

I watched the Kenny Everett 1979 Christmas special with Thin Lizzy and the Sex Pistols at the end, what a party!! they really knew how to have fun back in those days.

I remember that when it first aired, they called themselves the Greedies
