And that's it. No commentary about strange shapes in the water and no buzz-words that are often found around the
subject of Loch Ness. Just a few men and a dog messin' about on the water... for charity!
Yes, that segment struck me yesterday, with the dog in it. The dog is sitting there in the canoe, suddenly alerts on something out on the water and barks, then the shot cuts away. That made me wonder what on earth a dog would alert on in the middle of a big wide lake.
Another thing that struck me was the silent references to Nessie - the plushie of Nessie that worms it's way into shots, from sitting on a car dash during the drive in to a couple shots of it in a canoe bow at different points during the journey, and the wall mural of Nessie along the canal at Inverness that the panning camera lingers on without comment.It IS Loch Ness, so I would expect some references to Nessie in some form, but at the same time I would expect some sort of comment, even if only in jest

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
