Ice Road Truckers

[Bazile]

Any fans on here ?

Currently showing on C5

[ToraToraTora]

yeah they are old ones, I watched it on the History channel, good show mind.

[Bazile]

When i saw it was on C5 ,i thought it was a new series .
Then i saw Darrell Ward in a clip and realised that it wasn't

It's ironic that he should die in a plane crash , given the nature of the extremely dangerous nature of his occupation

[Bazile]

I noticed that there was no swearing from Art Burke .
In the early days of him joining the series , every sentence was peppered with swear words

I think this conversation might be limited between me and TTT - lol

[TonyV]

I watch it if I am about when it's on.

[Bazile]

crikey - three of us - we can form a convoy :-)

[ToraToraTora]

Breaker one nine you have a smokey on your tail!

[ToraToraTora]

it does say "New" but that means new to C5.

[Bazile]

Would you like to be a trucker on the ice roads , tora ?

[TonyV]

Think we have a convoy, was that smokey and the bandit? What was the chimps name?

[ToraToraTora]

baz, I'd like to ride on one of the trucks maybe but I don't fancy doing it full time.

[ToraToraTora]

i think the film with a convoy was...err Convoy!

[TonyV]

What was smokey and the bandit then?

I used to watch it yonks ago, but I prefer The Deadliest Catch nowadays.

[Mozz71]

Are you thinking of Every Which Way But Loose with Clyde the orangutan?

[ToraToraTora]

Watch it if I happen to be channel surfing but my favourite is Highway Through Hell, with the heavy breakdown trucks.
