Simon Latimer went into the history and the making of a MK IV Avon, the Light Carp Rod as he calls it. Visits to the locations where the rods were first made by B. James in Ealing and J.B. Walker in Hythe.

First produced in 1997, it hasn’t lost any of its charm.

A trawl of the web has turned up nil, nix and nothing regarding the title and the same result for Simon Latimer, who, reading the OP, seems to be the key man (in what capacity...?) in the vid.
If anyone can shed any more light on the provenance of the production - a date and any other production info would be helpful - it would be of assistance in furthering our searches.
I'm sure we all would welcome the opportunity to watch what is reported as quality viewing, generally interesting to earlier posters here and am very surprised that nothing has been heard on the Forum over the years.
Seems like essential viewing for our ilk.
