River Monsters season 1

Biologist and professional angler Jeremy Wade sets out in this entertaining seven-part documentary series in search of legendary freshwater monsters, in other words: oversized fish in all kinds of bizarre shapes. Sometimes you'll be surprised how close to home some of these monsters live: there's the huge European Maneater, hiding in a lake just off Berlin. The re-enacted scenes are sometimes a bit clumsy and the 'legends' should clearly be taken with a grain of salt, but the searches for the monsters themselves and the often nocturnal encounters are quite exciting and intense. Brrr, I didn't dare go into the sea anymore, but now I also avoid all rivers, lakes and puddles.
