So glad you enjoyed it. I couldn't believe how much was cut out in the end but that's always the way... I had one of the Assistant Producers on the phone last night almost in tears because they had got Podge's name wrong! :naughty

Same as he said! Well done Paul and Bryn. I like HFW's programs but was dissappointed by how short a time our heroes got. I thought Hugh got a lot of benefit from Emma's teaching in a very short time so well done Emma and Hugh too.

well done Emma, Bryn and Podge - and I really wanna see Podge dive 20mtrs to collect the scallops ;)

Thanks for the kind words all.:):)

Clive when I think that you’ve gained enough experience in the shallows I might just take you along to the scallop beds and you can give us a hand in the 20meter stuff.roflroflroflrofl
 
podge i missed this program do you know if its played on the internet anywhere like iplayer etc???
 
eh podge and what about the edits - do you get them as a memento? sounds like there was plenty more which got cut from what you say??
 
Thanks for all your lovely comments. We shot so much stuff and even though I knew things would be cut out, I did hope that there would be more as there were some really cool things that were filmed.

You can watch it again here River Cottage - 4oD - Channel 4 we're in the last half of the programme

We've asked for dvd copies so when they are forthcoming I'll put it on my site

Good effort Guys, but booo for me, i must be living at the end of the world or something:

"this service is not currently available in your area"


who are these goofy guys? filtering the web and that :martial
 
Well i've finally watched the epic program! well done to all :)
I'm quite impressed the Hugh did such a good breathhold & i thought the program was pretty good.
It would be nice to have Hugh post some of his impressions on here... (C'on hugh!)
Must admit that i'm dubious about the yellow stuff on the plate there - what was it like guys? (really!) and how did the scallops compare to how you cook them?

Cheers Jonny, and I’ve gota tell you mate that yellow stuff was really good, I could of done a plate full of it on its own. As for the Scallops they weren’t cooked any different from how me you or anybody else would cook them.
