Chris Yates's fish was actually 51.08,. It was known as The Bishop, i think it was also referred to as "the old 38". Wish my 38 went 51.08!! Terry Hearn broke the record properly (with a non spawn bound fush) with Mary (RIP)from Wraysbury at 55.13(?)

Walker's carp was called "Ravioli" because he and Pete Thomas took a pile of ex WW2 Italian canned ravioli with them as food.

UUUrrrggg!!!

Stuart,
I think you should use the "sorry dear, I misheard tou. Of course you were right" line as it tends to be safer. )

Ron,
