Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"
I also watch their TV, and you know who's got a frankly terrifying show on Chinese Television? Bear Grylls. And the stuff he does on Chinese TV is a little, shall we say, more hardcore, then what he does on your TV. I only watched it for about ten minutes, but I witnessed him tear the wings of live birds and tell one contestant that ?I can't make the jungle safe, you will get hurt, but I won't let you die?. Not the most reassuring pep-talk, if I'm honest.
Just watched the Steve Backshall's Extreme Mountain Challenge on BBC2.
He put himself in some well dodgy situations but wore his helmet so that is probably OK. :-\
I found it to be very entertaining and there will be caves in the next episode.
It is available on Iplayer so be ready with the popcorn.
More entertaining than Bacon Grill or whatever his name is... :yucky:
Bacon Grill and he was on tv again some ant and dec thing Saturday night.
also watched the steve backshaw programme, obviously a bit scary but they certainly made the most of the scary bits, artistic licence
