Desert Island Stuff

You raise a good point but take into consideration the very real risk of being expected to drink camel wee and eat raw lizard when it's Grylls time to cook and I'm more prepared to take my chances with Mears.

Grylls is INCREDIBLY annoying and if he was to come along I'd be prepared to resort to cannibalism regardless of how much food there was.

Besides, as he is the aforementioned tubbo, I reckon i can run faster.

Straight into a well placed trap.

With you on the mini-gun, Rob... And I fancied the arse off Sue Lawley when I was younger, wrong I know...
BTW Can anyone confirm the existence of the 80s Sue Lawley sex tape? It's an audio tape of her shagging some waiter in between takes or somethin'... "Fuck me till I fart" was one of the more memorable quotes IIRC...

Wasn't she also a member of the Monday Club?

You have to be a Nazi Tory MP to be in the Monday Club, dontcha?

^ OK, so she was never an MP

Apparently you don't have to be an MP, just a supporter.

it must be true. it made it on to the day today.

About as true as the Jennie Bond spermy shoe story, I expect...

who would win a death fight between mears and grylls? i think mears hand down, i think he is black belt judo or something.

and rumoured to be ex SAS...

Mears hard bastard.

Mears experienced a near fatal experience in 2005 while filming one of his documentaries in Wyoming. The helicopter in which he was traveling with his camera crew suddenly malfunctioned and crashed to the ground, rolling three times. Despite fuel escaping and pouring all over the wreck of the helicopter as well as Mears and the crew, no fire started and Mears was able to escape the wreckage and then help rescue one of the crew who was badly injured in the cockpit.[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Mears#cite_note-1"][/URL]

I heard he was s.a.s aswell.

The Sue Lawley incident was with a soundman, not a waiter. Allegedly.

Apols, it was a long time ago... Back in the 80s a mate in the biz swore he'd heard it at a colleague's edit suite... BS? Who knows? Proof please, linky?

grylls seems a slippery character

from wiki:

Former SAS soldier Chris Ryan has stated he does not believe Grylls broke his back on an SAS operation in Africa and that Grylls has exaggerated stories about his military record. Ryan said: "Bear Grylls goes on and on about an operation in Africa. He tells people he broke his back on an operation but I don’t know where in Africa he would be doing an operation. I’ve spoken to several guys who were regimental sergeant majors and instructors in the regimental SAS but none of them could remember this operation."[20]

Man vs. Wild / Born Survivor has been criticized for fabricating some of the situations Grylls finds himself in. In 2006 it was revealed that Born Survivor misled viewers into believing that Grylls was stranded in the wild alone when he was not and Channel 4 suspended the show for a few weeks.
