The island with Bear Grylls

[susiedaisy]

Anyone watching??

I still don't see why it couldn't also have been about how modern woman would have coped when cast away...

It would probably have made for a more interesting show to have a 2nd island nearby with just women to compare how their approach differed.

And if they had gathered rubbish on the beach, they could have found some plastic sheeting - a fertiliser sack or something - I have seen loads of those washed up on Indian ocean beaches - and done the condensation pit method of water collection.

And had nicer water!

Although you have to do it over night.

(I only saw a little bit of the fire starting/water boiling/scorpion-eating end of the programme, and was screeching 'get in the shade')

Let's see how whiny boy does today.

I would love to do something like this.

Seems like they are still out in the sun when they should really be in the shade

At least they have learned to wear shoes in the water. Doctor boy seems to have his shit together. Was no one in Scouts?

Yeah I liked the doctors four pronged spear. Good thinking.

We have sky plussed this but not watched yet - how much is bear grylls actually on it??

I really dislike Tony!

Am liking rupert even if he does look like one of the village people in that hard hat and shorts...

God they are shit aren't they.

They should have run a separate island in parallel to this with women on. I'm sure a group of women could do better.

Who puts a net out in the middle of the day when the fish are so much more visible to predators? Try dawn or night fishing for a start, you numbskulls!

'They should have run a separate island in parallel to this with women on. I'm sure a group of women could do better.'

Yep. Why I loved climbing, hiking and mountaineering with women most of all.

And the rotten fish they all spurned probably would have made excellent bait for crabbing...

If the pelicans are there at certain times of day, it suggests to me that's when the fish are shoaling...

'Let's get a rota here. Two for sticks, two for the fires, two for shelter, two for water, two for fish, two for food on land, and those resting from night watch.' Duh.

A broken knuckle. Boohoo. Tape the bad finger to the other.

See I want dusty on my island already!

They've not eaten but they have time and energy to masturbate and to pick a fight with some sand. Idiots!

Oh god, I really, really don't need to see chubby white man-arse, thanks.

See! Night fishing...

Aww look how happy they are. Bless.

have they had any training at all? I'm a bit worried in case they come accross the death apples, it's not like the crew can stop them.

Slice the damn fish open and get its gut out for the carrion.

Are they going to keep the fish guts for bait, though? Probably not if they've still got energy for titty/bush talk.

What a lovely conversation. Isn't it nice that men talk about women like that, I can't say I've ever done the same.
