Fortunate are those who have missed it.

Unbelievable piece of crap. Would have left you disgusted.

I saw flashes of the 'manhunters' a couple of days ago and thought it might be interesting...pity

Is this the programme where the maneater was eventually tracked down and killed.....only then nobody was completely sure that they`d caught the right Tiger....and then they decided that it probably was ?
If it is then Sujay is correct - the programme is utter bilge !
One of the Discovery Channels `specials` - a story that could have been told in ten minutes but padded out with rubbish with the same thing being repeated time after time in order to fill an hour.

First the confession... As it was me who informed Mack The Knife through SMS about the programme, was a bit shaky visualizing an outraged Mack The Knife. Was really relieved ( not making it) on reading that he actually missed it.

In addition to the casting horror, Corbett moves around dressed like a Gestapo thug, portrayed as a very edgy person and half of the time romances Jean. All incidents depicted are absolutely false. Yes FALSE.

The blighters assumed that nobody has read Corbett or they themselves have never read him.

I had no idea I come across as a certified b@st@rd in my posts. Will try and be more gentle in future. :mrgreen:
