RedM Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 So, did anyone else enjoy this series. Yet another beautifully shot nature series from the BBC. The last episode was depressing. Humans are clearly over-fishing and you get the feeling that no-one will stop until it's too late. See also: End of the Line. Still, it was bloody good telly though. Make me with I had blu-ray.

michael Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Make me with I had blu-ray. Really? It made me realise I don't need a HD TV just yet, it still looked stunning on my CRT. I liked the coral gardens, I'm going to grow some in the sink at home so I can catch tuna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted June 15, 2009 Author Share Posted June 15, 2009 superb viewing anyone else actually swum with sharks , I have Rich Yes. Sea of Cortez in early 90's. Huge numbers of Hammerheads. I was gutted when I learnt (on a programme the name of which escapes me) that they've been fished so heavily that they are now a rare sight there.

Fifty Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Cool yes it is very sad indeed that these creatures are persecuted all over the world. The shark fin issues are really badand all trade in such things should be banned immediately. Oh and before anyone takes the side of the poor chinese etc - they should be forced to eat rice on its own Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 I've scuba dived in the shark tank at the Blue Planet Aquarium at Ellesmere Port, does that count? Picked up a tooth as a momento. I watched some of the South Pacific series, what I saw was brilliant TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 The shark fishing was awful. What is the point of cutting the fins off and just chucking them back. I didn't realise the albatross are in such danger either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
