Scots skipper took Peaky Blinders cast out to sea

March 5, 2022 International News

Billy Milne, 42, got the order to ferry the cast and crew from the hit gangster show about in his old fishing boat. But for some of them it was their first time at sea and the choppy conditions in Portsoy, Aberdeenshire, didn’t agree with them. He feared there might be some unexpected drama as the team, including Finn Cole who plays Michael Gray on the Beeb series, battled to find their sea legs. Billy said: “There were some white faces because of the swell. Billy’s traditional wooden boat The Comet caught the eye of the Peaky Blinders production team as they scouted Scotland for filming locations. Photos, >click to read< 18:33

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
