Loch Ness: They Created A Monster on SBS Viceland – Rumours and sightings of a dinosaur-like creature have persisted at Loch Ness for decades, and the 1970s was the peak decade of Monster Hunting.
No qualifications were required to join the hunt – just a sense of wonder. Anyone could roll up at the banks of Loch Ness, take out their camera, and declare they were joining the hunt for Nessie. But the deeper they looked…the darker it got.
Monster egos, fakes and frustrations, rivalries and ridicule mean that Loch Ness quickly became home to a very different type of beast.
As picture after picture were exposed as fakes – or at least dubious – the scene at Loch Ness became fraught.
Loch Ness: They Created a Monster is the unbelievable story, behind the unbelievable story. A new take on Loch Ness, it’s affectionate, funny, shocking and wonderous.
