BBC2 Sunday evening 7-8 pm
The Natural world - Mississippi- Tales of the last river rat

I turned over at the end of the Antiques roadshow to fine this on BBC2 - It was fantastic, the best thing I have seen on the telly for a very long time.
From the BBC website link (http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctwo/listings/programme.shtml?day=yesterday&service_id=4224&filename=20041128/20041128_1910_4224_56325_50)
Its some guy named Kenny Salwey alias "the last river rat", Who appears to live in cabin somewhere along the Mississippi, with his dogs, and lives off the land.
The Dialog was poetic, the filming fantastic, lots of scenes of him paddling his old canoe on the river, Shooting duck, fly fishing. Came across as a bit of an American Jack Hargreaves. Even the music was bloomin good.
Any of you see it ?
I missed the begining, so don't really know what it was all about. Better still anyone video it ?? :-P
Check it out if its ever on again.

Cheers
Rich

Hi Rich,

Yeah, stumbled across that last night completely by accident.

Didn't record it, but it was definitely worth watching again.

I caught it by chance and was glad I did. His comments about hunting / fishing / shooting were spot on. I usually upset the local hippies when I point out the 'sound system' they take for their perties was made useing copper mined by the big companies they protest against so they're actually supporting strip mining etc.
