Well what can I say... In tonight's episode the Sea Shepherd crew actually went out to sea for a change, ok there was a dramatic race to stop a grind but that turned out to be a local boat race not actually a grind at all.
Then when for the first time the SS crew actually saw a pod of live whales, they immediately got on the radio and told everybody listening where and how many there were. Now remember in an earlier episode they said the locals were monitoring their communications, so maybe giving them the information they need to kill the whales wasn't very bright.
That is unless you wonder if there's an ulterior motive, after all they would love to catch the local Faroese people having a grind and film it for publicity for the Sea Shepherd, so maybe there is a hidden agenda here.
Either way I'm sick of the whole thing, the Sea Shepherd crew have behaved very badly, and either are totally incompetent (the covert van with the driver wearing a SS sweatshirt and being met by a film crew, the illegal microlight, giving out the whales location on the radio etc etc) or are just very naive spoiled rich kids playing eco warriors, to be honest I don't much care, my support for them died during this series, and from what I'm hearing a lot of other people feel the same.
Goodbye whale wars.... And good riddance..
