How good it is to have  the former Royal Marine Bruce Parry back for another great series. Often not one to watch, while having supper! but how very entertaining  is  “Amazon with Bruce Parry” showing on BBC2  at 9pm on Monday evening .  This week as he  treks along  the route of the Amazon through parts of the remote Peruvian forest is quite sad in places.  The disruption to the  Achuar tribe is so badly threatened by the worlds  oil companies showing the pollution they make to their very necessary water rivers spoiling this unique way of life. As always Parry was keen to integrate with the tribe and agreed to try ayahuasaca a hallucinogen that causes severe vomiting. It was painful viewing, but fearless  Parry was not to be beaten.  As always  so educational and the scenery is  just amazing.  These are such great series and certainly not to be missed.  There are four more episodes to go, catch it if you can.
