TV tonight 23:00

Post by Geordie »

On UKTV Docs +1 there's a documentary about the two Royal Marines that rowed across the Atlantic, and at 1:30 on Discovery Wings there's something about the Fleet Air Arm, I didn't catch it when it was first played today but it's on again at 1:30AM.

Might not be interesting but meh, thought I'd mention it.

Just saw it last night.They were attempting to row across the Pacific but 3/4 of the way there a fishing trawler smashed into them. Those two blokes are nutters :o

Yeah it was mental, 200 days at see and the fishing boat ruined it for them, can't imagine how gutted they must have been.

The Fleet Air Arm programme was about the Arctic training in Norway, it touched on RMs but it was mostly about the technicians and pilots side of things.
