It's no fun going to the toilet in the Amazon..

These were the type of wonderful, inciteful observations made by Charlie Bird on his trip up the Amazon. 6 weeks of travel for 1 hour of Charlie moaning about altitude sickness, a 20km/6 hour hike to a bed, toilet troubles and so on.

Awful stuff methinks - an hour of Charlie Bird anxieties.

I never thought that speaking directly to camera was still a technique used by any production company of note for this type of programme......
