Ray Mears' Next Series?

[giancarlo]

Just wondering, anyone heard if Ray's doing the next series yet?, is it in production now?
Can't see anything about it on the site really, but I do remember reading "Ray is currently off filming..." a while ago on there, somewhere.

Anyone know anything?
Best to drop Woodlore a quick mail to find out?

cheers
Carlo

i only put the first reply cos we`re waiting oin cyber forrest for all you other groovy funksters to dive in :-D

I ceraintly hope that it will be soon. It deffenitly did say that Ray wasn't going to be running as many course's this year due to filming though.

I recently asked Woodlore if Mears will be doing another series of Extreme Survival and the answer came back 'no he's doing a new series on Bushcraft' which leads to the presumption that it will be called somthing other than Extreme Survival.

It will be screened in Autumn this year and summer 2005.

 

[giancarlo]

ahh that's great news...
just about "Bushcraft", that's sounds really good...

Great going Mr Mears... get it out on DVD quick! :You_Rock_

Cheers

there are going to be some very interesting things coming from Mr Mears over the next year, some very interesting research he has been working on for one.

I think that those who have been told a fraction of it will be sitting on the info until it gets released.

An email was sent out on the Woodlore mailing list today, not much info, but I'll quote in full:

RAY MEARS NEW TV SERIES

We are pleased to announce that Ray is now well into filming his new series of 10 one-hour programmes. The first five of which will be screened on BBC2 Autumn 2004 and the second five will be screened on BBC2 Spring 2005. A book to accompany the series will be due out Spring 2005. DVDs/VHS will be available at the end of each series. Sorry, we can't give too much away at this stage but if you are enjoying the repeat programmes of Tracks we can guarantee you will not be disappointed in this new series!

Oh the suspense is toooo much !!!!!
It will be great to see Ray back on bushcraft, I'm all survivalled out.
Rich :-D

I'd heard that the BBC wanted Ray to broaden the "yoof" appeal of his programmes... so it's my understanding that the next series will be called:

Ray Mears World of Extreme SPORTZ!!!

In it Ray will demonstrate bushcrafting and survival skills whilst performing death defying stunts on a skateboard.

:clap:

TROLL!!!!

:boot:

 

[Womble]

Well, Trollkin is a very old nickname of mine...

Did anyone see at the end of the extreme survival series on BBC2 they showed one episode of a ray mears program that isnt part of the extreme survival series 1/2/3 and it isnt the ten minit thing thats running now.

Cause at the time i thought i way the start of a new series but the following week nothing !!

i cant remember the name of it !!
