One of those people you could sit and listen to for ages Shame he didn't have a long retirement 😢

RogEr was correct about the Share Fishermans Tax Scheme, it didn't work that well

and sadly the little tiger is no more. done a few trips on her, but now she's gone for scrap. R.I.P Roger and the W.S.S

Excellent Rodger,R.I.P.

КЛОН НИКИТЫ МИХАЛКОВА,,

Watched this many years ago with dad who was a fisherman on the SW coast new roger well

Rest in peace Rodger , enjoy the Guinness. You we're a good man and a great skipper.

Hell of a boat and skipper the Celtic mor and skipper Robert, worked some weather that's for sure, defo not one to go home if there was a blow was Robert 👍

Caroline Stevenson, formable woman in her time, good boss but a hard woman. Respect

sad, really

2:48 Dutch flag not a French flag...Roger...LOL

smoking kills more than drowning at sea, poor ole Roger, probably life of smoking killed him, he looked so healthy in the start of series

Brave men

What an absolute gem of a documentary and what a gent of a man. Calm seas.

How right is Roger at 2:54 and even today Rogers words are still correct. The EU is still killing the UK and Irish fishing communities to this day.

Good old Roger. RIP... Brilliant man

What a fucking unhappy marriage this was...

RIP ROGER

I respect the skipper, a real man,doing a mans job

Just looked up about the crabber she sunk in 2016 which is sad to here.all crew got off safe.engine room flooded,She must of earned some money in her time.....

Was that Tex Clarke's number he took down?

I thought that would snap. We would normally put a tire in the middle of the tow rope?

Watched the skipper on BBC weekly absolutely. Loved it and read the skipper book several times many moons ago now skipper and crew seemed real characters but true gentlemen r.i.p Roger nowell what happened. To the rest off the crew

Been there, Done that, On the way to Iceland, MARCH 1965 at the Helm of 750 ton Trawler out of Akereary Iceland. Skip- Ardbaker, - Sister ship- Sletbaker. Paid off- Lead-Hand, Second Mate.

I'd tow my brother to the other end of the world for fuck all if it came to it.

...but you know you've to pay tax, so why is it even an issue. How do you think the schools and NHS you use are funded.....

No wonder our British industries have gone down the pan.Chaps trying to make a living in a dangerous job being hounded by red tape.

Just read the book!

Jon, agree with you , fantastic series, like you have been trying to find it on dvd etc, enjoy it here on the net,(pardon the pun) though. RIP Roger...

great programme ... missed it on tv but ty for uploading it ..... ex Cadgwith crabber & scilly boat deckhand. R.I.P Roger

My uncle Pete Aka Mich xxx

what a tosser he pissed off on holiday and left his wife to sort out his problems with the tax.tosser

he is takin the piss,£38000 he owes in tax,and he pisses off to france on holiday leaving his with and kid at home......tosser

Top bloke roger spent many a night in the swordy with him ,vince,perry aving a laugh the old breed and a gentleman. Rip rog

the U.K made the biggest mistake in british history by joining the E.U our country is in ruings not only our fishing fleet but the imigrants entering our country taking our jobs

where Roger said about the price varies depending how many boats have landed their catch due to the weather, the shops + supermarkets don't lower their price +these men are the ones risking their lives. These men should get a lot more money than they have.

that's brotherly love

@rayman when was this footage taken ?

Thanks for uploading this magnificent series...one of the most underrated documentaries ever. Incredible people and an extraordinary part of the world. RIP Roger Nowell.

love this nice 2 see robirs boat i was with him in wales good good skipper!

rolling cow!

@chimpyboy1971 One thing the Cornish crews have is a good sense of humour they have more fun and laugh off what is a dangerous job...unlike the other Televised Trawler programmes

Never saw this series, but grew up with "The Skipper" series. Really nice to find this and watch it after reading on the Discovery "Trawler Wars" web page that Roger passed away earlier in the year. Really sad to hear that as I looked up to him alot as a child. Rest in peace Rog.

RIP Roger :)

Absolutely wonderful!!! I built a model of the WSS for my A-Levels back in '95 shortly after the Skipper series. As a 17 year old I probably got on Stevensons wick asking questions for my project but bugger me here he is! I've looked for a copy of the Skipper on film for years, on and off as we didn't have a VCR in 93! I shall enjoy these. Must have read the book a hundred times. My old man hails from Tehidy, now north of Tamar God forgive ee. 'Ansome to find this after all these years.

FUCKING EUROPEAN UNION!

I'm a Newlyn boy good to see some old faces!

Those boats were never suitable for beaming, beaming was designed by a madman..wires and heavy stuff all over your head and wires across the deck, bloody nightmare, also the rails are so low its easy to go over the side on these boats.
