Nice one Gerry, thanks for the heads up.

 

[Adam Wylie]

It's wenesday according to tv listings East Midlands

 

[Graham Elliott]

Watched last night. Some wonderful fishing..However I wish they would do away with the silly bits.
With a different commentary, not Ali, such as Passion for Angling style, it would be excellent.

 

[Mike Thompson]

Have to agree Graham, spoils a good programme.

 

[Jim Ufton]

It wood have been nice to see them "fish"for the crucians, rather than a wait till one hangs itself on a fixed feeder and the bleep bleep of alarms,

 

[Adam Wylie]

To much " BULL****

 

[Alex Dalton]

Other waters are available to us mere mortals.

The Grand Fishing Adventure​

Series 1 Episode 3
Ali and Bobby head to Nottinghamshire to fish the River Trent for big barbel and have just 24 hours to succeed - Bobby has never even caught a barbel before, so can he break his duck? Ali then blindfolds Bob and drives him to a top-secret lake at a classified location - here they hope to catch some of the mysterious big carp that reside there. Two Michelin-starred chef Daniel is also smuggled into the venue, and he sets the lads a cooking competition to hopefully fuel them for further catches.

 

[Julian Peacock]

An extremely tired format and probably just a vehicle for this silly new company, without any ideas, that’s advertised in the breaks. Nothing Grand about it at all bar the self congratulatory comments. Its just too noisy and I worry that it actually counteracts all the good work done by many other genuinely good angling programmes.

Hi men,

Nice to have any fishing available on TV .

But I'd rather rub salt into my eyes than put up with Ali for more than a few minutes, but that's my choice

A few minutes….? That long…?
I lasted for a a matter of seconds before I folded on the first episode.

It‘s almost as if they set out to be as knobish as they possibly can.

 

[Michael Weir]

Same old, same old. Carp, carp and more carp. Do you think Ali knows how to fish without an alarm. Even the chef is in camo's.

 

[Ben Jennings]

Not saying it’s bad but each episode i’ve fallen asleep before the second break.

 

[Derek Funcks]

Soon as i looked at the TV schedule, and seen the name Ali, i thought carp, carp, and even more carp. Far too much tech, dinghies, bait boats, alarms, sorry, not my cup of tea. But hey ho, each to their own.

 

[Robert West]

Been watching more out of curiosity than anything else. I see where I’ve been going wrong all these years
I needed 10 rods a film crew, exclusive access and a Michelin star chef
I’ll keep watching see if I’ve missed anything come on it’s not that bad really

 

[Huanzhou Zhu]

I watched the latest episode on the bed with the hope that it will help me fall in asleep quicker and it didn't disappoint me.
Also, it is amazed how Ali can turn into every kind of fishing into modern carp fishing...does he know another method?

Tons of bait to attract the fish.

 

[Graham Tremble]

I think it is safe to say they will attract a different audience than A passion for Angling……or even Mortimer and Whitehouse…..each to their own I guess.

Seen people talking about but it's not for me.
