During the news they showed some footage of a shark that was found in Japanese waters.
It was a prehistoric looking thing with a large shark's head, followed by what looked like the body of a giant eel. Quite a rare find, as these sharks apparently normally live 600m in the depths
Did anyone catch what the name of this species of shark was, or know what it is called?

Nice one Ants - thanks for that, that's what I was looking for.
(I know what you mean about Kochy)

I didn't see 'Sunrise' this morning, i've got issues with Kochy, but this isn't the forum to go into THAT...
In answer to your other question, it was a Frill Shark, and yeah, they're pretty weird.
