I have seen a couple of them and thought they were good.

Sounds nerdy as f**k but another one I found very enjoyable was Portillo’s Great Railway Journeys Across Britain (or something like that)…..it’s mega ! 
 

Watch them, enjoy, try and visit some of these places before they build over every last f***ing inch.

I've seen that one, was a good few year ago now, think the eel trapper was the last of the trappers down Cambridge fens, had his little shop selling his purse nets, traps etc, but had to give it up because of the massive decline in eel numbers, cannot remember who the presenter was, but there was another one where they were down the fens on a narrow boat, and they pulled up and netted a hare

I just happen to have seen that eel trapping guy on the chube, quite recently. Just one of those random things that pops up in Suggestions, for no discernable reason.

Knew he was the last of the line. But, fukking shame to hear he had to jack because the eels are fukked. Sign of the times :(

I would think the eel catcher would have been Peter Carter. Here's a couple of short films about him.

That's him. It was the second of those films I saw :)

I know a Steve Carter, from Norfolk. Probably a relative of that guy. Probably a very close relative, if you catch my drift? Norfolk .....

?
