richard-1501 OK the premise is fairly standard, get three comedy actors one an elder statesman of British comedy and two young(ish) guns who have something to say or at least a definite take on matters and throw them together into a boat and remove them from the studio and include a few sections with other celebs and you have two hours of fairly good TV.However delve a little deeper and there is more here, a wonderful montage of being on the river, very down to earth and the fact the Griff is an extremely competent sailor who knows more about boats that most people will happily forget. The dynamic that develops is a pleasure to watch, refreshing in a way that the vast majority of current entertainment delivers and therefore by its very nature excellent television to kick off your shoes too and enjoy especially when watched during the winter to conjure up those romantic ideas of messing about in boats..!
