Thanks guys! I did say 'never again' after the last series, but I will fwd these comments to the camera man and Discovery, you never know! Any ideas on what we could film may help!
It was really enjoyable to make, but also a bit daunting having a camera in you face with an audience too. Can make you sweat a bit!
ps It would be nice to have the series on DVD, as I only have them on video, with the clock counting down the seconds before the commercial break....

I had the same problem with my Boatyard videos but I think that the transfer to DVD removed the timeline. I'm sure it only cost £10-15 for 3 copies and you should be able to make more in your pc.
Yes it would be really good to be able to get this series on DVD since I no longer have Sky. Just look at Mark Evans' site he sells his restoration type series and newbuild stuff on DVD but Getting Afloat I would buy.

Sorry to see you no longer have sky if it helps any one else.
Maybe a request to discovery channels TV may get a copy.
