I'm late to this, having just caught up with it on the iPlayer, but I loved it. It was nice and calm that I could watch it without any problems when my son was sleeping next to me. It just kind of wonderfully washed over me.


I presume there isn't a date for the new series yet?

I saw a clip for the 2nd series when Bob was on Top Gear a few weeks ago. In the clip Paul & Bob were playing golf, and watching it, I thought they had gone for a different pastime for the new series (it was hilarious, they were both hopeless and were falling over laughing at each others attempts at teeing off). 

 

Must have just been a diversion from the fishing in one episode though, but damn, I would be well up for watching a full series of them playing golf, instead of fishing.

 

Still more than happy for them to continue with the fishing and cooking and arseing about though. First series was slow TV at its finest.

They could do any slow activity and it would be TV gold.

That river was stunning :wub:

 

I finished reading their book the other day, it's a lovely read too but it does focus alot on the fishing side of things, so if you're not interested in that then it's probably not worth your while.

The audio book is supposed to be just them chatting for 5 hours, rather than of the book itself. Probably a better bet if you're not as bothered about fishing.

They seem to be trying to read the book, but get sidetracked every couple of sentences and just have a silly natter.  It's been my walking companion for the last week and it's wonderful!

 

Last night's episode was lovely as usual.  I could quite happily watch them do any sort of leisurely activity while having a chat for 10 more seasons

Just adored the new episode. Bob is probably my favourite human. He's been my comedy hero for decades and now as I'm getting older watching him pootle about in the countryside is perfect TV. Need to get myself down to South Wales too, just breathtaking scenery.

He's such a genuinely funny person. He seems like a lovely bloke. Surprisingly touching 1st episode. It's a show that makes you appreciate life.

What an absolute treat this show is. 30 minutes of pure peace and quiet with two of my favourite humans. 

 

I've just come back from a break away in the Peak District and all I want to do at the moment is revel in nature and the English countryside and this is the perfect antidote to having to get back to my shitty job.
