563209 2007-06-26 10:43:00 Anyone watching this?

For those interested it was filmed here on Great Barrier, late last year. And as a bit of extra interest, a bunch of the old treasure coins they use in the programme were bought from me by a BBC props guy.

This reality series is a bit corny, but good for being local. Apparently the participants have no idea that they're in NZ.

563214 2007-06-26 11:40:00 I channel grazed on to it tonight in time to see some silly Brit girl complaining as she tried to clean a fish. "I've never killed anything before" she whines. "I killed a fish!" she exclaims, as though she now shares as secret bond with John Rambo. Then she starts hacking at said fish and goes "oooh, this is a hard life" or some such nonsense.

I channel grazed away again ...

563215 2007-06-26 19:32:00 god it is so BORING.

I can't see why the brits like it. All you see are people arguing with each other. It seems to have no purpose or direction. Its also faintly ludercrous when its only about 5 kms from the beach to Claris (I think).

563216 2007-06-27 00:13:00 That's funny, I was doing that same thing on that same beach 20 years ago... and yes- I complained about having to kill fish. :( Shortcircuit (1666)

Agreed. Total waste of time.
