Ah, Terry Christian, he of the striking Manc accent, he made
my Cockney tones sound like those of Brian Sewell.
I don't think he's been seen again since the episode of his late night show when he tried to take the micky out of Lemmy from Motörhead. Not a wise move.my Cockney tones sound like those of Brian Sewell.

Ray Mears
He got dropped when Bear Grylls decided to turn his 'genre' into a whole load of false jeopardy. A shame because he had good programs, which gave insights in to all sorts of stuff, whereas now, its all made to be ' exciting' , and it just isn't. Another casualty of TV where the director's take on 'reality' ruins a good format. whitesocks said:

He's still doing his thing, running survival and bushcraft courses, just not in front of a tv camera.https://www.raymears.com/

I'm led to believe that Mears does not have a high opinion of Grylls. Was'nt he also brought it to track down raoul moat?whitesocks said:

I am not surprised. Mears for me was always easy watching , pleasant, and as I have said before, totally devoid of false jeopardy, which for me is a big thing.
Trouble is people want more, so you have to go bigger , which is not better, IMO, so you end up with Grylls and Ed Stafford and god knows who else .
I think he still has something to offer, but you wont get it made because he isn't exciting enough any more, which is a shame.
Its ironic that his type of content is blowing up on You Tube, some great stuff to enjoy for exactly the same reason that Mears made it popular.
