1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,880
Lough Erne in County Fermanagh,
2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,280
the westernmost county
of Northern Ireland.
3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:09,480
According to myth,
4
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,960
the Erne was named after
the goddess Erann,
5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,680
whose divine power was
dissolved into the water,
6
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,160
breathing life into
the surrounding landscape.
7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,840
The Erne has been a centre for human
activity for thousands of years,
8
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,400
but with more than 150 islands and
500 square kilometres of water,
9
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,720
there's still plenty
of hidden corners,
10
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,320
providing sanctuary for some of
Europe's most endangered species.
11
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,040
Filmed over a year,
12
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,800
this is the story of
this ancient water world,
13
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,520
told by today's tribe
of river people,
14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,880
as they work hard across the seasons
15
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,400
to preserve and maintain
the Erne's precious habitats
16
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,040
for future generations to enjoy.
17
00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:23,160
It's autumn, and as the summer
visitors drift away,
18
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,640
the shores and islands of the lough
are beginning to change.
19
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,560
The sinking sun and shrinking days
20
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,600
give the lough
a different atmosphere.
21
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,520
Every bit as beautiful
as any season.
22
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,560
A long winter is coming.
23
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,440
But autumn is the Erne's opportunity
for a final hurrah.
24
00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,560
It's September, and underneath
the Erne's misty waters,
25
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,040
pike are on the move.
26
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:06,640
In just over a month,
27
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,600
Enniskillen will be hosting
the Erne Pike Classic.
28
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,720
Brothers Frankie and Eddie Roofe
29
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,240
are spending today scouting for
prize-winning fishing spots.
30
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,320
Their obsession with this mysterious
and elusive prey began in childhood.
31
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,480
The story goes that my father
went and bought an old boat
32
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,320
round the town and Eddie and I
went out fishing with him.
33
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,720
We were probably
about eight or nine.
34
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,200
We were going past Sandy Bottom
and...the big pike hit.
35
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:48,400
He started winding it in,
36
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,040
and he wound it in closer
and closer all the time.
37
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,880
He handed it to me.
He says, "Hold that."
38
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,560
As I held it in my hand
like that there,
39
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,000
I looked over the side of the boat,
40
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,480
and this big pike was about 27
or 28 pound, maybe even,
41
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,720
with a mouth on it like
that there, full of teeth,
42
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,640
and of course I threw
the hand line up in the air
43
00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:06,080
and off it went across the water.
44
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,040
And we'll not tell you the end
of the story, but I got a skite.
45
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,640
Come on, fish.
46
00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:17,520
Here's it coming in now
on the top of the water.
47
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:18,840
Look it, just behind.
48
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,320
Wait till you see. Look it.
Look. Here, see it?
49
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,720
You have to respect any creature
50
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,640
that puts up the kind of
fight that a pike does,
51
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:30,080
cos he does not want
to come into your boat.
52
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,880
And they're a hangover from
the era of the dinosaur.
53
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,360
They can be big and dangerous
and they've a lot of teeth,
54
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,120
and some people are afraid of them.
55
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,240
I'm famous for...having
to go to the hospital
56
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,000
and get hooks taken out of my hand.
57
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,400
Nice fish.
58
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:57,920
Very small but nice.
59
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,320
As the days get shorter and colder,
60
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,520
the trees in the ancient woodlands
that surround the lower lough
61
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,640
begin to turn.
62
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,240
It's an annual spectacle,
63
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,320
much enjoyed by nature writer
Dara McAnulty.
64
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,520
Autumn is the season where the
entire forest is full of colour
65
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,200
and everything just seems
to be exploding with life.
66
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:41,360
It hasn't really gone into
the dreariness of winter just yet,
67
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,560
and it still doesn't have
that just intensity
68
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,920
that you just can never
escape from in summer,
69
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,800
and autumn is just that perfect
balance of it all.
70
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,080
And it also has the mushrooms,
which are absolutely incredible.
71
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:04,720
Mushroom. Woo!
72
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,120
Do not know how I spotted this one.
73
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,040
OK, now I've lost it.
74
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,080
Oh, found it.
75
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,920
There are a number of different
types of mushrooms.
76
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,960
We have the saprophytic mushrooms,
77
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:24,600
which grow on dead organic matter
and feed off it, break it down.
78
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:25,920
They break down the leaves
79
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:30,280
and bring those nutrients
back into the system.
80
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:32,640
You've also got then
the parasitic ones,
81
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,480
which grow on living organic matter,
82
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:40,760
and they steal away some of the life
energy and nutrients from its host,
83
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,960
which is usually a tree or
a different type of plant.
84
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,480
And now the final and, I would
think, the most interesting of them.
85
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,920
They are called mycorrhizal.
There we go.
86
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,480
They're really, really, really,
really microscopic,
87
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,120
and they wrap around
each other so much
88
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,960
that you can get hundreds
of kilometres of them
89
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:02,400
in just a small handful of soil.
90
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,840
So that's enough to stretch
across the country.
91
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:15,760
Imagine it as a massive
underground system of tubes.
92
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,480
It takes in the nutrients
from the soil
93
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,760
and from the dead leaves
which fell from the tree,
94
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,360
and then it's giving it
back into the tree
95
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,920
through this network of mycelium.
96
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,000
You can't really see them,
97
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,600
but they are the binding force that
keeps the entire forest together.
98
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,400
There are a couple of scientists
working on theories
99
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,200
that it is possible...
HE CHUCKLES
100
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,480
..that the trees can be
somehow communicating
101
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,240
through this mushroom web.
102
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:59,440
It's starting to become known
as the wood wide web.
103
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,080
I think it's truly magical.
104
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,680
Back in Enniskillen, it's the start
of the rowing season.
105
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,160
Situated between the upper
and lower loughs,
106
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,080
this island town is home to
Enniskillen Royal Boat Club.
107
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,320
Pressure on. Legs. Legs.
Drive it through.
108
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,760
Last year's senior teams
are now off to university,
109
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,880
but this year's new hopefuls
are training hard.
110
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,720
Keep your inside shoulders back.
Outside shoulder up.
111
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,000
Around 14,000 people
live in Enniskillen,
112
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,160
making it the Erne's largest town.
113
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:55,680
Morning.
114
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,120
Baker Joe Kelly was born here.
115
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,760
Just be a couple of
minutes here. Sure.
116
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,200
Got a lot of stuff.
117
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,520
He was brought up in America
but returned 15 years ago
118
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,640
and has been running the bakery
for the last two years.
119
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,440
OK.
120
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,280
When I first started, I was
doing about 30 loaves a day.
121
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,520
Now I'm up to about 70.
122
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,440
My bread is an old way
of making bread,
123
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,320
and basically, it's only
three ingredients,
124
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,040
so it's only flour, water and salt,
125
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,720
and those three things create
this wonderful loaf
126
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,480
of leavened bread that looks great,
tastes great and is good for you.
127
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,200
OK, I'm going to need about a ten-
minute break after this, all right?
128
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:36,000
What I call myself is a community
baker, so I bake for my community.
129
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,840
Just leave the delicate
stuff till last,
130
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,960
just in case I do fall, you know?
131
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,040
I'm not a large scale.
132
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,520
As long as I can maintain a certain
number of loaves every day,
133
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,720
then I can sustain
a living out of it.
134
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,240
So I mix the bread, make the bread,
bake the bread,
135
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,400
deliver the bread, sell the bread,
sweep up the floors at the end.
136
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,400
So I'm scoring the bread
137
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,680
because there's air bubbles
trapped inside the loaf.
138
00:08:56,680 --> 00:08:58,480
Allows the bread to expand.
139
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,400
I just do a simple scoring method.
140
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,400
In the old days when they had
community bakers,
141
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,240
families would make
their own bread at home,
142
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,280
and then they would bring it
down to the baker
143
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:11,480
and he would fire the bread.
144
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,160
They would do a certain kind of cut
so that when the bread was baked,
145
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,480
the family would know
which bread was theirs.
146
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,240
The Erne sits in a wide basin
147
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,640
on rocks formed
330 million years ago
148
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,480
when Ireland was near the equator.
149
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,800
Above the upper lough
in Cuilcagh Mountain,
150
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,920
rivers that eventually feed the Erne
plunge through limestone rock
151
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,600
to carve out the 12-kilometre
Marble Arch cave system,
152
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,520
which attracts more than
70,000 visitors a year.
153
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:00,840
Near Moses Cradle,
154
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,840
painter Lorna Smith is working
on sketches for oil paintings
155
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,560
that will form the centrepiece of
an exhibition later this year.
156
00:10:08,560 --> 00:10:13,400
The greatest teacher in painting
is actually the landscape itself.
157
00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:19,240
The colours, the textures,
the sculptural effect.
158
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,000
I'm looking at perfection,
159
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,720
and it's natural.
160
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,560
Not all the caves in the Marble Arch
system are so accessible.
161
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,840
Upstream where the Owenbrean River
pushes through the rock
162
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,120
is Pollasumera.
163
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,080
Yeah, very slippy at
this time of year.
164
00:10:41,560 --> 00:10:45,960
It's a favourite spot for husband
and wife Tim and Pam Fogg.
165
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,440
Based in Fermanagh, they have
explored caves all over the world.
166
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,720
We just don't know what's
underneath our feet.
167
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,160
There's no way of telling.
168
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,000
Who knows what might be there?
And that is the big attraction.
169
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,280
There's certainly rivers in
Fermanagh sinking underground.
170
00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:07,520
We know there must be
a cave passage in there,
171
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,760
but we haven't found a way into it.
172
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,080
Maybe we never will.
173
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,360
That boulder in front of you
wasn't there before.
174
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,880
That's been blown in by
a huge flood. Wow. My God.
175
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,640
Must weigh a tonne or more.
Yeah, just shows you.
176
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,960
Water is a huge part of Fermanagh.
177
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,800
The water aggressively
wears the rock,
178
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:33,400
but also chemically, it wears
the rock and makes the caves
179
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:34,800
the size and shape they are.
180
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,560
You can see in this cave
the amount of flood debris,
181
00:11:39,560 --> 00:11:41,080
even a full-grown tree.
182
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,280
Huge boulders, maybe
a tonne of weight,
183
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,680
have been washed in by
the force of the water.
184
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:46,840
It's incredible.
185
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,360
Well, it just shows you what it's
like when it rains heavily.
186
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:50,800
Not a place for us to be.
187
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:53,280
Quite low here.
188
00:11:55,560 --> 00:11:58,400
Ooh. When you come into a cave,
189
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,600
you're sort of getting
into the heart of things.
190
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:01,920
You're getting inside geology
191
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,080
and you're also getting
inside the hydrology,
192
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,560
the way the water flows
and joins together and links
193
00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:12,000
to eventually all join
together into the Erne.
194
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,520
Nice little waterfall here!
195
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,640
It's almost like the underworld.
196
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,680
This is what's been going on
beneath the surface.
197
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,680
There's a raindrop that's coming
through,
198
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:33,880
and it's just plopping
just onto the water,
199
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,840
and I thought it was
very interesting,
200
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,640
the reflections of the stalactites,
because that's how they're formed.
201
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,080
There's a very interesting thing
the Dalai Lama said.
202
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,960
"The smallest of thing
is always significant."
203
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,600
Every single drop matters.
204
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,640
This is a fantastic thing.
This is a sandstone boulder,
205
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:10,400
and it's held in place with calcite,
which is the same as the stalactite.
206
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,640
And there's another one here,
exactly the same thing,
207
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,400
except these are really
big boulders,
208
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,720
and they've been cemented in place
by the calcite floor.
209
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,080
So this level of infill must
have been right across
210
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,560
this part of the cave,
and it's all been washed out.
211
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:27,280
It's incredible how
this is just suspended.
212
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,200
Oh, there's a lot of infill here.
213
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,280
The wonderful thing
about in here is,
214
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,720
once we get away from daylight,
it is completely dark.
215
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,040
There's no natural light.
216
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,360
It doesn't matter how long
you keep your eyes open.
217
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,200
Your eyes won't get used to
the dark. It is velvety black.
218
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,160
Your hearing becomes
much more acute.
219
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,800
And then you start to hear voices,
220
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,480
and you think there's people in
the cave or there's people coming,
221
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,920
and you say, "Hello."
222
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:57,080
There's nobody there.
223
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,920
So we're right away
from the water now,
224
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,600
and it's got really, really quiet.
225
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,440
Let's turn the lights out,
see what...
226
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,360
That's nice, isn't it?
227
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,680
Inky blackness.
228
00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,520
It's October and, above ground,
229
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,880
the temperature is
beginning to drop.
230
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,440
At Crom Castle on the shores
of the upper lough,
231
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,760
the male deer will soon be rutting.
232
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,280
It's a reminder that
winter is on its way.
233
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:50,240
In Enniskillen, it's the weekend
of the Erne Pike Classic,
234
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,680
where fishermen from across Europe
battle for a prize fund
235
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,880
of over £12,000.
236
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:01,120
Competing for local pride
as well as the money
237
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,880
are Frankie and Eddie Roofe.
238
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,200
We're a bit nervous, but we, you
know, we have a lot of work to do
239
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,680
to get ready, make sure
we're ready to go.
240
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,280
Hopefully it'll go well for us.
241
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,360
Two years ago, I had a fish
22 lbs 4 oz.
242
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,600
And it got me second place
in the competition.
243
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,360
With your prize, you get a cap.
244
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,600
It's just something I like
to wear on the competitions.
245
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,920
Try and intimidate
everybody else, you know?
246
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,680
All the best today.
247
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,840
Have a good day. He's supposed to
blow the whistle,
248
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:38,880
but can't even see him.
249
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,160
He must be down there.
There's still boys weighing in,
250
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,200
getting their boats
checked down there.
251
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,120
But it is half ten. He should be
ready to blow the whistle now.
252
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,080
WHISTLE BLOWS
Right, boys, have a good day!
253
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,000
I'm just going to try
something different.
254
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,320
I'm going to put a bit of coconut
oil on to give it a wee bit of taste
255
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:01,360
and a bit of a smell.
256
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,040
And if that doesn't work,
I'm going to try a bit of garlic.
257
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,640
At Castle Caldwell,
258
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:19,800
Dara is enjoying the last throes
of the forest's annual colour show.
259
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:26,320
Man-made creations like houses,
shopping centres -
260
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:31,080
humans haven't really had those for
a very, very long amount of time,
261
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:35,280
and in all honesty, we're
still getting used to them.
262
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:39,320
And I'm autistic, so I feel
everything that little bit more,
263
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:45,280
and it's that intensity that us
humans just really aren't used to.
264
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,800
A sensory overload feels
as though the entire world
265
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:55,600
is collapsing in on you as though
you could... It's like...
266
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,000
You can just feel things coming
in from you on all sides,
267
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,280
and you start curling up
in a little ball,
268
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,960
and it just feels utterly awful,
269
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,680
like the entire world is
just collapsing in on you.
270
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,080
And there's nothing you can
do to stop it.
271
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,160
I don't really think that
that's a coincidence
272
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,120
that I feel so much more
relaxed amongst the trees
273
00:17:14,120 --> 00:17:15,400
than amongst people.
274
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:25,280
I think that everybody has this need
to be outside to a certain extent.
275
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,920
Maybe they don't collapse
in a shopping centre,
276
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,760
but everybody does get stressed.
277
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,960
We cannot function to the best
of our ability
278
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:40,280
without spending some time in nature
to let ourselves recuperate.
279
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,040
Back in Enniskillen,
280
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,240
organisers of the Erne Pike Classic
have been having a busy weekend.
281
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,120
Nice and easy.
282
00:17:58,120 --> 00:17:59,160
Beautiful.
283
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,040
That's the heaviest pike here
the day for me.
284
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,640
It was 7 lbs 8 oz.
285
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,160
I heard there's one at 18, just over
18 lbs, you know, been caught.
286
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,680
For Frankie and Eddie Roofe,
287
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,280
it has been a frustrating
couple of days.
288
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,640
Nothing yet anyway.
289
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,720
There has to be a big fish
here somewhere.
290
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:29,280
Yes! There's now only
a few hours left,
291
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:34,240
and they need to catch a pike of at
least 14 lbs to qualify for a prize.
292
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,440
Give me the rod.
You're nearly off the boat.
293
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,280
Just have to break it, Eddie.
We're not going to get it out.
294
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,160
Don't break the rod, though.
295
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,080
One of those things. A big rock,
or... That's right. No doubt.
296
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,560
Or three.
297
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,040
There's a boy after
catching fish. Look it.
298
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,440
Good lads. Well done.
299
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,800
This man's catching a fish
over here beside us now.
300
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,760
A small one. Aye, looks
to be small, yeah.
301
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,840
Regardless of what happens
next year,
302
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,880
we're going to sit on the bank,
on the edge of the bank,
303
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,360
and we're going to fish
out of the boat.
304
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:14,960
You think so? I do, yeah,
305
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,400
because this has been real
hard work for no return.
306
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,760
To me, sitting in the
same spot the whole day
307
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,440
wouldn't really be
my cup of tea, Eddie.
308
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,560
If it comes down to it, we'll be
going out in two separate boats,
309
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,000
and I will sit on
the shore the whole day.
310
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,920
I guess the two of us
is too set in our ways.
311
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,120
No, no... Oh, you're willing
to change, are you?
312
00:19:37,120 --> 00:19:38,800
I'm up for change.
313
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:41,840
That's a fish. Eh?
314
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,080
Good fish. Good fish. Get the net.
315
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,440
Right. Bring it here to me.
316
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,000
That's it, jump into the boat, mate.
317
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,320
That's good.
318
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,440
We mightn't sit in the hedge
next year after all.
319
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,000
Nice and gentle.
320
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,280
25 minutes to go.
321
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,480
We'll weigh it just to make sure.
It may not be heavy enough,
322
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,240
because there's been a lot of big
fish caught today as well,
323
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,960
so we'll just wait and get it
weighed and see what it is.
324
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,800
Take that, would you? Yeah.
325
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,480
Near enough... Not too much
above 12, it is. Is it?
326
00:20:47,120 --> 00:20:48,400
Turn her round till we see.
327
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,200
13 pound? 13 it is. Yeah.
328
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:58,760
13.
329
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,680
That's disappointing,
but there you are.
330
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,720
OK, lads. Thanks very much.
331
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,320
Disappointed in that there.
332
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,720
Definitely looked bigger.
333
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:34,000
Down at riverside,
334
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,080
retired schoolteacher Pat Lunny
335
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,520
is picking up his boat
for an evening on the lough.
336
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,680
He has lived in Enniskillen
all his life.
337
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:48,880
The house with the green
round the windows there
338
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,480
is the house that I was born in.
339
00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:55,120
And who wouldn't want to be born
somewhere like this, right?
340
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,560
Spent my whole life here.
I will end my life here.
341
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,760
Excuse me speaking
about things like that.
342
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:11,800
Going to take my brother
Dermot up now.
343
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,480
We're going to go down
the lower lake,
344
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,000
down along the pump house shore.
345
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,120
Dermot's a Parkinson's sufferer.
346
00:22:21,120 --> 00:22:23,600
When I say sufferer,
he's a very good sufferer.
347
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,880
Get the old legs kind of going as
best you can. We'll head on down.
348
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,720
He was a PE teacher
in his younger life,
349
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,640
so his mobility being restricted
has to be a bit of a pain.
350
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,200
Watch out.
351
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:38,600
Come on ahead. Come on down.
352
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,760
That's you. Now, we'll have
to go gently here now,
353
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,800
because there's a lot of activity
on the lake today, Dermot.
354
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,760
They're rowing very well,
doesn't it?
355
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,760
It's just fantastic. Look to
the corner, you see? Yeah.
356
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,640
It must be there's a rowing school
for boys in Ireland,
357
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:57,680
North and South.
358
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,640
Downstream, baker Joe Kelly
is taking his kids
359
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,840
over to Inish Doney island
for a night of foraging.
360
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,920
OK, we're off.
361
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,880
It's owned by his parents,
who now live there full-time.
362
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:17,920
Coming out here,
363
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,040
it's like you're leaving
the rest of the world behind you.
364
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,280
It's always been like that,
even when I was younger
365
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,160
and we'd come home for the summer.
366
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,720
The island brings
a whole new meaning
367
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,400
to kind of getting away
from it, though,
368
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,920
cos it's...like a little slice of
paradise all to yourself, you know?
369
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,600
Now, keep your eyes open
for the crab apples, Owen.
370
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:44,640
Yeah, here we are.
371
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,480
To be honest, they don't
taste that great.
372
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,640
They have a real sharp kind
of pungent taste to them,
373
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,560
but what they're full of is pectin.
374
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,440
So they're really great
for making jam with,
375
00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,680
and what you do with them
is you boil them up
376
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,040
with a little bit of sugar,
and then you add some flavourings,
377
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,080
like maybe some star anise
and some clove,
378
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,360
and then it turns all mushy,
379
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:13,200
and then you basically strain it
and it becomes crab apple jelly.
380
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,480
I used to have crab apple jelly
when I was a child,
381
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,640
and it's really good on pancakes.
382
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,440
That's probably enough there.
Let me see.
383
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,680
That'll get us about
a couple of jars.
384
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,320
So we are on the lookout for
the chanterelle mushrooms, right?
385
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,520
Those we definitely know
we can cook those up.
386
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,600
That's a possible chanterelle.
Go ahead and grab it out of there.
387
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,840
If you go to a restaurant,
you get, like, wild mushrooms
388
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,760
and, you know, mushrooms
that are in season.
389
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,680
Usually a lot of time,
they're chanterelles
390
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:44,840
or a type of chanterelle.
391
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,360
We'll keep going here and
see if we can find a...
392
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:50,400
Are you just going to wipe it on me?
That's OK, yeah. Go ahead.
393
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:52,760
What's that there?
394
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:57,480
That there is a star... That is a
star rain cap, I think it's called.
395
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,040
What's interesting about these
is whenever you squeeze them,
396
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:01,160
they do like this here.
397
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,120
They have a gland inside them
that carries their spores,
398
00:25:04,120 --> 00:25:05,440
so that's how they reproduce.
399
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,200
Keep an eye out for
the blackberries, too,
400
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,680
just there might be
a few left still.
401
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,320
Oh, those are great.
Look. Eat that one.
402
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:18,680
Ah, it's really good. Mm.
403
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:33,040
This is one of my favourite
places to come on the island.
404
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,040
Never get tired of
looking at it at all.
405
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,960
I spend most of my time trying
to figure out a way
406
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,880
to be able to stay out here more.
407
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,080
You want to head on here before
we lose the light, guys? Yeah. Yeah.
408
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:55,800
Across the lough, Pat Lunny
and his brother Dermot
409
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,880
are also settling down
to enjoy the fading sun.
410
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:03,360
If you look around here,
411
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:05,520
all you can see is a ribbon of land.
412
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,800
Because it's a calm evening,
413
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,360
the sky and the lake
are basically one.
414
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:15,240
As the light drops, it will
pick up that wee bit more.
415
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,120
No two people with Parkinson's
exhibit the same symptoms.
416
00:26:24,120 --> 00:26:26,920
It's really a challenge
to the medics.
417
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,840
About seven or eight years ago,
418
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,200
I suddenly discovered that I was
dragging my left leg slightly
419
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,040
when I was walking.
420
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,520
And the guy that I worked with said,
421
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,920
"You should go and get that checked
out," which I did in the hospital.
422
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,640
I had an idea before I went
what was wrong,
423
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,240
cos I had an uncle
who had Parkinson's
424
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,120
and he displayed much
the same symptoms, you know?
425
00:26:46,360 --> 00:26:49,160
But it's not the end
of the world, Parkinson's.
426
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,640
I can tell you,
I take it as it comes.
427
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,600
The lake has a calming effect on me.
428
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,280
I like Lough Erne, you know.
429
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,320
In this day and age where mental
illness is such a problem
430
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,280
and treatment of it
is such a problem,
431
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:06,120
it's great to have
something to distract you
432
00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:08,720
and make you appreciate
the environment, you know.
433
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,160
It's heaven on Earth where
I'm concerned, you know.
434
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,320
You're closer to God when
you're on the lake.
435
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,800
I remember I had a few religious
ladies out one time.
436
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,760
I was telling them that
I was quare glad
437
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,320
the Pope didn't come down
Lough Erne when he came to Ireland.
438
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,440
"Why is that?"
439
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,480
I says, "Sure, it's so pleasurable,
he'd have made it a sin."
440
00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,120
Growing old sucks.
441
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,080
By being old and being
here tonight,
442
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,720
it doesn't suck tonight,
does it? No.
443
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,600
Autumn on the Erne
is coming to a close.
444
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,760
The caves are just so beautiful and
you just want to do justice to them.
445
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,440
OK, girls? Right, ready?
Go! Push off!
446
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,960
Soon the lough will fall
under its winter spell...
447
00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:25,440
..a time for Erne's river people
to step back and take stock
448
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,720
while they wait for spring.
449
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,520
Clean socks make fabulous mitts.
450
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,800
I'm barely able to speak
here it's so cold.
