I'd love to see a list of all the snippets of music used.

There's just one I cant name.

I really enjoyed these

I really enjoyed these films

the presenters had an easy going relationship

the boat looked lovely, the food was interesting and looked good

cooking on a boat is hard enough - let alone filming it

beautifully shot and symnpathetically edited

all round....

great stuff I thought

Dylan

PS congrats to whoever did the sound too

There's a few services out there that claim to automatically identify music if you play it at them. Most seem to work via iPhone or Android apps these days, but if you don't have such a thing there's probably ones that work via a Web site and there certainly used to be one you could phone.

No more Garlic, please!!

Great series, and I thoroughly enjoyed them all. And let's hope the series continue around Britain.

And, please, can we have some recipes without Garlic. It's the one thing that actually makes me seasick!! (Or even Landsick too).

To list the amount of songs they get though in one episode would be a very long list...They don't skimp on the music

Ooh, me too. Lots and lots of great lesser known stuff.

Just one I would love to track down, episode five I think, about twenty minutes in when Dick and James were visiting the hydroponic herb farm. Really nice ambient track I couldn't place. Anyone able to help?

I watched the whole series and thoroughly enjoyed it. You can't fault the choice of Amelie Rose - a proper boat! Been a fan of Luke Powell since the days of Eve...

Well done guys.

music is cheap now

To list the amount of songs they get though in one episode would be a very long list...They don't skimp on the music

not sure where they got it but music is dead cheap now

the production music libraries will sell their whole stock for $200 - unlimited use

so tracking down the tunes might be hard

Did no-one else find Dick Strawbridge too much for a whole show?

They were both a bit over powering to begin with, but as the series progressed and the father and son rapport has developed and is shown more it has become better and more enjoyable to watch

..their waistlines increased somewhat.

He's all right but his lad is a bit too arty farty for me.

Don't find it particularly objectionable in the context of a foody telly programme, but I can certainly see where you're coming from.

I'm a bit surprised to find people siding with the dad.
I thought the poor lad was always apologising for his dad's rather buffoonish behaviour.

Found his moustache too much for one show . Watched him last weeks slurping coffee through it and just wondered why on earth would you?
Maybe that's a new definition of filter coffee

does anyone have this show? cannot find it anywhere so anyone got links to share of the programs?

 

[lustyd]

Seems some of them at least are on Vimeo

Given Dick has a new family and a much younger son now (see * chateau * ), he might not be so keen to have it "out there". But there were lots of other Strawbridge-led series...
Googling reveals there is a DVD too, so free versions unwelcome?
