    Arm Wrestling With Chas & Dave

    Robson Green is to tackle some of the world's wildest marine life in Extreme Fishing with Robson Green.

    The show follows the Wire in the Blood star on a global adventure as he takes to the waters with some of the world's most daring fishermen and women. The series begins as Green goes back to basics in Costa Rica, living with the Maleku tribe as they hunt the elusive machaca fish, a relative of the piranha.

    He also visits Louisiana in the USA, where he tries his hand at underwater spear fishing with locals and attempts to snare a barracuda. And a stint off the coast of South Africa sees Green reel in a hammerhead shark. In Europe, he fishes at the mouth of the Ebro River, hunting a giant catfish. At sea in the Azores, he puts all his new-found skills to the test in an attempt to catch a 600lb blue marlin.

    The show was commissioned by Five controller of factual entertainment, Steve Gowans, and is executive produced by Hamish Barbour and series produced by Ross Harper. The series builds on the recent success that Five has enjoyed from pairing famous faces with travelogues, most notably with Paul Merton in China.

    Produced by RDF-owned IWC Media for Channel Five (UK), each instalment of the 4x 60-minute series will trace a different stage of Robson's journey. It will air from 1st September 2008 in a 9pm slot on Monday nights. Producer/director is Jeremy Cadle, Director of Photography is Tim Pollard and the Underwater DOP is Andy McLeod.

    I've seen this. It's not very good.

      There's something about Robson Green that leaves me totally cold. It's not just his crap song association with Jerome Whassisname, but maybe his utter lack of charisma or appeal.

        He's the Alan Shearer of TV actors.

          True, but his programme tonight is just one letter from being unmissable.
