Ray mears

Makes great programmes, although I haven't watched any of the new one about old British food.

However, wtf was he doing on those BBC Christmas ads?! Monobrow alert!
 
Ray Mears is fantastic and one of my heroes. I have watched all his programmes and enjoyed tonight's as well. After you spend a lot of time in the wilderness like he has, you have to respect his views on nature.

If I was ever stranded on a destert island, I really hope he is washed up with me, long with a couple of hot blonde female models of course! :D
 
He makes very entertaining tele,

many SAS guys i've spoken to have slated his talents, claiming that a lot of what you see is not actually him doing it. Not sure how true this is though.

They're probably just jealous, I know I am.

Because he can make a Pot Noodle factory from the abandoned remains of a Ford Cortina and few lengths of twine.

Because Pot Noodles aren't fit for human consumption? Hell, I wouldn't feed a dog it, let alone have one myself. I'd rather have beaver testicle or whatever Ray's having.

i've seen a lot of his programs and am currently re-watching a lot at night he is brilliant can make lots out of nothing :D

i would love to go out to a forest somewhere and have ago at wht he does but obviously with contact incase i get lost or something :D
 
I think that the Rayman should be made a saint, but I absolutely love the old boffin he goes around with. He's an absolute scream as he just eats what the Rayman gives him and then tries to be nice about it. Even the stuff he made today which by all accounts was vile, he just ate. Even prehistoric mud which the other 2 spat out.

All you need in life:

Birch Bark
Machete/Parang
Spagnam Moss


Long live Ray Mears :)

A lot of programs like this are boring, but he's easy to understand and you can easily relate to what he's saying. Plus his meals always taste 'fantastic'

The man is an absolute genius and deserves to be recognised for it. I particularly liked his program about the Heroes of Telemark and the situation in Norway in WW2.
 
Agreed Ray is an absolute legend but for the sake of all that is holy get a haircut that parting is just cringe worthy. :D

Agreed, he is top notch and just takes it all in his stride. He is obviously extremely knowledgeble on plants and I love the way he just wanders through the forest stuffing almost anything in his mouth. :)

lol i know its great isnt it,

"Oh these is a rare hippomooseocdile"

*takes a bite*

"Tastes fantastic"
 
I'm so glad to see that people are saying how great he is. I hear a lot of people slating him because they think he wants us to all go back to the dark ages.
They just miss the whole point.
My favourites are the Romanian forest and the Rodgers Rangers episodes :)
He is THE man

Hi Andy :)

Hehe, I think his name is Gordon. It did make me smile when he was sniffing around eating the habitat. Looking forward to seeing some more of Ray Mears and co on TV.
