ack-ack Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I think I'd like to blow the top off a few cold ones with Bruce Parry. The guys a legend. He'd probably come out for a bang with you as well (a shoot I mean). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 i'd second Bruce Parry and also Ranulph Fiennes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Fox Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 i'd second Bruce Parry and also Ranulph Fiennes Definitely Sir Ranalph - Just read his book mad,bad, and dangerous to know - excellent read.

Winston Churchill George Best Adolf Hitler (would like to know what He was all about, then dog him one in the eye!) Tell you what, old Hitler didn't reckon much on hunting. Quite ironic really when you think how many souls lost their lives due to his meglomania. Goering was a big hunter, I reckon he could have been quite entertaining after a day out in the forest (if you could forget that he was instrumental in the formation of what is widely acknowledged as a very very naughty regime).

Subtlety has always been a weakness... What I mean is we only see the finished article...The 20 strong members of the production team has to endure the same as Bruce without the benefit of the Army training he has had...Its all done with smoke and mirrors.

I know what you mean but out of all of that genre of programmes I reckon he comes across as the most genuine. Its the people he meets that make it work, no ammount of production can fake the looks on their faces when he clearly annoys them or acts the goose. He's a bit of a plum bag and he doesn't try and hide it. Didnt know he was in the Army, a patriot as well, good old boy. I know Bear Grillsteaks was in the Army, I bet his brothers in arms thought he was right spanner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry ive lost the Plot I am confusing Bear Grills with Bruce Parry.. yes Bruce Is the genuine one who tries all the native drugs and stuff and is prone to puking on screen What a **** i am... Its Bear who does all the staged stuff like absailing down a waterfall in venezuela on a 1/2 diameter vine, while the camera man follows with a 40lb pack on his back holding a 20lb video camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got an odd face like he's carrying to many chromosomes or something. I cant stand him but the kids probably think he's great. Parry could roll him out as thin as a rizla without even having to open a can of whoopass on him. Perhaps a new TV programme if there are any media sorts watching. Celebrity scraps. Almost a topic of its own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yates Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Hey Mike, i am so relieved that you were wrong about Bruce Parry, top bloke. He is definately in my list. Others would be- Lee Harvey Oswald(Did he really pull the trigger), Pete Postlewaite, Phil Lynott and Kelly Brooke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
