I watched it the first time. Took 3 attempts as I had to turn it off or put something through the screen. Sickening to see how the criminals in l Leinster house have sold out this country

Sickening to watch. Irish waters sold out so farmers can get there subsidies ever year of Brussels. Great forward thinking. Sad part is , it will never change unless we leave the EU and that ain't going to happen anytime soon.

fecking missed it again - know the story though - what we got back in subsidies from eu is probably less than 10% of what our fisheries are/were worth - no such thing as a free lunch

It is a good show. I felt the fishing was a bit biased towards the "poor fisherman just trying to earn a living at a hard job"
I reviewed it here: http://www.topfisher.eu/atlantic-a-docu ... w-comment/
