    Mutiny

    Mutiny and i dont mean here, but the tv series.
    Anyone else watching this, its about 9 men trying to trace what Captain Bligh did in 1789 traveling 4000 miles in the same size boat with the same provisions as in those days.
    2nd one tonight.

    I've seen quite a few different documentaries and films about the mutiny and the successful escape to the Pitcairn`s.. Fascinating.
    I also saw a docu years ago about one of the dangerous Paedophile`s that live there ..One of Christians descendants.

    Saw 'Mutiny On The Bounty' - the 1962 version - shortly after its release. Being an 18~year~old adolescent at the time, I found it a very exciting film.

    starred Marlon Brando as Fletcher Christian ... and Trevor Howard as Captain William Bligh.

    *Richard Harris was also cast - though, as to what role *he played ... ... I cannot remember.

    2nd one i have just watched.
    This is a very good series and it just shows you that you have to have a leader and the others have to respect him, but with grown men its hard as it feels like you are being treated like a kid, but the problem is you are acting like a kid usually

    Again , i must add what a very good series, it takes a special sort of person to be able to get along in a tiny boat with 8 other men for days on end.

    What a very good series , just finished watching this and i did enjoy it all.
    Being with a group of grown men on a small boat for so many days and having to work together and having a leader to try to control you all, well some men cannot take to living under rules, and it did show on here too.
    For fun think of 8 folk who you think you could live on a small boat or living in 1 hotel room for so many days and having to live o the basics, it could be fun at first but i am sure there will be some deaths before the end.
