Episode synopsis
This episode begins at Bibury in the Cotswold Hills at a privately owned stream. Rob and Tom then head north by train to the tiny village of Altnaharra (pop. 35) in the far north of Scotland. Heather-covered hills, unspoilt lochs and some sensational single-malt whiskeys make this a very special trip. There were trout, sea trout and the possibility of a salmon, the most highly sought after fish in Great Britain.
About A River Somewhere
A River Somewhere was an Australian documentary television series originally broadcast by ABC TV in 1997 and 1998. It was produced by Working Dog Productions, and was hosted by Tom Gleisner and Rob Sitch. The series was released on DVD in 2005. The series focused on the observations of Sitch and Gleisner as they travelled to various locations across Australia, New Zealand and around the world to fly fish and experience the local culture. The aim of their expedition was to "catch dinner and have it cooked in a local style". The music used throughout the series was created by Australian musician and composer Liam Bradley.
