The Great Prawn Hunter

The Great Prawn Hunter

The last of the series which follows the extraordinary lives of the UK's offshore fishermen as they do the most dangerous job in Britain. Jimmy, skipper of the prawn boat Amity, is a hundred miles offshore fishing in one of the most hazardous areas of the North Sea, The Devil's Hole. The engines which bring in his nets are on the brink of failing. If they stop altogether, then he'll have to cut loose his nets, worth £30,000, and return to port with no prawns and no pay. 80 miles away, new recruit 17-year-old Ryan, is desperate to impress the boss, skipper Kevin West, and show that he's tough enough for the job.
