JennyMorgan Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Brilliant! So far Tim has only clouted the boat once by swinging the quarter of the boat into the quay heading. Oh, and he's not very good at tying up either! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyndham Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Well I don't know about anybody else but I've just spent the last hour with a grin on my face. A decent show. Pru got my wrath early on with her "plastic bathtub" comment but totally redeemed herself with the last line, something like, " the sound of water slapping at the bow is enough to cure ...." forgot the rest. Maybe some of you with recording abilities can fill in the blanks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I found the whole programme very disjointed. I didn't really feel that it gave a sense of why anyone should go to the Broads ... but perhaps that's not really the aim of the series. They did rather jump from one place to another which we only recognised because we know the area so well. Makes you wonder how much of the same could be said for all the other programmes they have made. It was a shame that they didn't take out something much more like the boats that most of us hire as holidaymakers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May just be a coincidence but the production team had been supplied with links to or copies of all the relevant documentation explaining what the Broads isn't. That aside one of the best TV programs dedicated to the Broads that I can remember. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnks34 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Was it me or did I hear Pru say "Pi*sing Rain" when referring to it raining? I saw quite a few boats I recognised, they seem a lovely couple and I really enjoyed watching. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxwellian Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 You most definitely did hear Pru say that, nearly fell off the chair. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must understand, they were making a TV programme.....not a holiday advert or a promotional video. Of all the people who watched that tonight only a tiny percentage have been to or are planning to visit the broads. Tonights show gripped us because of where they were, but the stars of tonights show were Tim and Pru. It's their show..... with love. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deebee29 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Thought I was hearing things but I’m sure that’s what she said. Really enjoyed the program 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonderwall Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Enjoyed it , they a lovely warmth to each other . One disappointing aspect , was from the aerial shots , the water looked very brown and murky , which it certainly dosent when you are afloat. Where exactly was the little cottage they visited? And can anyone go and vist it? I would guess it was on the Ant? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveRolaves Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 In all a good programme but as has been said it jumped about a lot from the northern to the southern broads. I would have thought that a stop at the Berney moorings and a visit to the mill would have been shown. It looks like that will be the only programme from the Norfolk broads. Its a shame that a whole series could not have been solely about the Broads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WherryNice Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I found the show absolutely heart warming and it showed the Broads off very nicely I thought 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WherryNice Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Wonderwall, yes it's on the Ant at How Hill, pretty sure it's open to the public still but I haven't been around it for years personally, think I will make it a priority though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I enjoyed the show, as others said it jumped all over the place.Still great to see,as Peter said Tim almost whacked the stern moving off. All in all well down C4. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they portrayed it very well. It's one off those places where you really need to throw yourselves back to years past to get the most out of it. Us older types will find that easier to imagine, when I stayed at my grans we had a potty under the bed, my mum would light a coal fire in the morning. I can almost feel what it was like to live in that house. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe some of you with recording abilities can fill in the blanks. Pru was quoting from the Arthur Ransome book Coot Club. The actual wording was. The klop, klop of water under the bows of a small boat will cure most troubles in this world. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I guess there must have been a lot of editing done to fit the content into around 40 minutes (1 hour with all the adverts included) Pity we cant see the footage that was not shown.
