Just when I thought it was safe to watch TV again those brave men, the crab fisherman of the Bering Sea are back.

Second episode tonight on C4, this time these guys are fishing for the Opillio crab.

Already one ship, _Big Valley_ has sunk and just one survivor plucked from the sea.

Jeez these guys deserve every respect

The programme currently being shown on UK TV is from 2005.

Is this the first one or what?

We’ve already had a prog. a few weeks back about the fishing for the Alaskan king crab (red one?).

I’d willingly purchase off any US doper any or all DVDs of the series no matter the years…I’ll also pay postage

If you’re interested my email is in my profile

Season One had the King Crab followed by the Opilio Crabs. Is the series unavailable in the UK to purchase?

What I love about the series is watching what they eat. Gluttony at it’s best.

Not gluttony mate, when you’re on deck for days on end you guzzle down whatever you can, when you can and as fast as you can

[Amazon.co.uk](http://Amazon.co.uk) has the DVD [here](http://www.amazon.co.uk/Deadliest-Catch/dp/B000NO1TXU/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/203-2091363-8928711?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1189366690&sr=8-1)

The Bacon Salt people will ship a sampler pack to the UK [here](http://www.baconsalt.com/buy/index-intl.php). I think you’d have to be quite keen on it to pay 16 quid for it though.
