"This is a bigger and more visceral adventure than I ever imagined."
Richard Parks, the presenter, is speaking on camera about a bog standard OFD two to one ("the deepest part of the system") through trip.
Macho, hyped, exaggerated, and poorly lit.

Well it put me off caving. I will stick to stone mines.

I thought it was quite good and seemed to get a good response from people at work.
As a programme for the general public it seemed fairly accurate. I'm not sure OFD II to I is quite "bog standard" as someone's first caving trip particularly since it took 14hrs!
I do agree I thought the lighting could have been better -but that is looking at it from a cavers viewpoint.

Bear Grylls is one of our greatest comedians, a genuinely gifted self-parodist. Or so I thought until I bumped into his producer at a party, who assured me that he's totally serious. Hard to believe, but I suppose I must take his word for it.

it cant have been a first caving trip becaus access to the caves is confined to experienced cavers only .
