Anyone watching "Axemen" on tv Ch.5?

I just watched 2 hours back to back which Dave had taped, and found it a brilliant documentary! 5 different logging companies working out in the mountains of the NW States, with their chainsaws being followed by a camera crew! Brilliant programme, I'm hooked! All those strapping big hunky fella's risking their lives, and they nearly killed a poor cameraman at one point! HIghly recommended!

Was going to watch it, but as we already watch Dangerous Catch it got to the point of how many more series can we actually have time to watch where men are doing dangerous jobs.

I've watched some of those too Becky, but this one is really different (plus the blokes are better coz they're not wearing yellow plastic - but each to their own!!! Lol!) I "suffered" one last week that he'd taped, but now that I've watched two more and I know all the guys by name, I must admit I'm quite hooked now. I've got one more to watch but I'll save that for tomorrow

Ahhh but you wait until it's in series 6 like Deadliest Catch. There are only so many trees to cut down and log.

OH will be watching and I'll say 'Didn't their engine flood?'
No dear that was a different boat in series 2.
Course it was.....

I'm ok though watching it though, at least it stops him putting The Dambusters on yet again!
