Absence of moonlight favoured the prolific Geminid meteor shower around its maximum on 2001 December 13-14. Clear skies allowed collection of a substantial body of watch data from the British Isles, indicating another strong, broad maximum, with corrected Zenithal Hourly Rates reaching 100-110 early on Dec 14. Bright Geminids were perhaps less abundant than in some recent previous years. As usual, the proportion of Geminid meteors showing persistent train phenomena was lower than for other major showers.
