Clunes on the Scillies. ITV1 Now.

Martin Clunes is off to the Scillies via the Channel Isles and St. Micheals Mount on ITV1 now. Very good so far.

Apparently the small inboard Humber the Drugs guys have on Guensey is
"The fastest thing in these waters"

I think we know a certain Atlantic that'll be a bit quicker

Think it was a Delta, which aren't known for there ultra high end speed but are excellent rough water boats.

I am glad others spotted the gaff! I thought I had missed something and that it had a hidden jet engine somewhere if needed.
Why can't shows like that check their facts before screening. Anyway I thought this was probably the worst of the series anyway.
