I'd HATE a "celebrity" boat show for all of the reasons that have been stated, but the fact remains that Awesome Aussie Skiffs makes excellent viewing, whereas watching most (all?) other kinds of sailing is usually dull

3 men in a boat (and the spin offs) were great shows - I loved them. Really amusing.
I read the book first (by J.K. Jerome in 1889) and was surprised to find it hilarious - a great read. |

The best celebrity sailing programme I have seen was when they put poor Lenny Henry is a transatlantic trimaran with Tony Bullimore. He was so ill

Hmmm, looks like I should have put the end bracket over to the right a bit!
I put the date in to give it some perspective - not many books that old are actually funny to today's readers. |
