I see water.
I see Ben Fogle in shorts.
I see Fern Cotton in a leather jacket, and Clare Balding in girly pink.
It's interesting to see, but I was hoping for greater spectacle.
It reminds me a bit of the shows they put on, on the boating lake, in that park in Scarborough.
When do the boats start attacking each other?

The park is Peasholm Park, where they put on sea battle displays several times a week during the summer months.
