Hook Me Up is a different series to the ITM Fishing Show etc. I know a young guy with cancer who was chosen for Hook Me Up and his episode was filmed last summer, for a series that's due to screen late this year I believe. It was a huge boost for him. I'm not a fan of Matt's more antic-driven stuff, but I respect him for his work ethic and the way he involved some deserving people in Hook Me Up. Im not knocking this expected series as I was quite looking forward to it, when Prime advertised the new programming I naturally though of this. I'm not aware of his Ultimate Fishing Show, but many series on Prime have already been screened on their parent company, Sky. Doesn't stop them saying "All new XYZ tonight on Prime". It's new to Prime, but not TV full stop. Yes a lot of his shows are first broadcast on Sky but Prime advertised this as a new series but in actual fact this has screened before on TV3 I think, so why portray something new when it a repeat not what channel it screened on. There's a long lead time with TV shows for a range of reasons. The BAF guys, and the Fishing & Adventure guys are the same. I've seen the F&A guys coming back in at Half Moon Bay in summer, and the show hasn't appeared on screen for months and months.
