man down triumph acclaim.

[bub2006]

Just watching a program I recorded on sky called man down. Lead character is the comedian Greg Davies. The program looks ok And he drives a triumph acclaim. Not sure what model it is but its on a b plate. Looks tidy but didn't realise they was made on a b plate. I know its sad but i do like things to be correct!

Talking of shite in unexpected places, there was a K-Reg Montego prominently used on the shite BBC3 sitcom Bad Education recently.

Ah thanks for that, I stand to be corrected. As for k plate monty, there is an m plate one I see around here. God knows how the tailgate is still on the car as it looks like its made of holes and wishes!

My guitar teacher at school had a dark blue Acclaim.

 

I always liked those cars for some unknown reason.

Yep, it's an Acclaim. I love Greg Davies, and Rik Mayall, but I found the program pretty shit TBH.

I watched it last night, the programme was complete shit and you just know that the cars gonna get smashed up at some point.

Greg Davies and Rik Mayall rock, however I have absolutely no fucking idea what was going on in that programme. Acclaim is a bit of a star in it though, being used In quite a few scenes.

 

Still gonna watch it next week, just incase it starts to make sense, or maybe I need some of what the writers had....

Don't say that

The Acclaim is definately a stereotypical teacher's car.

That Trummy looks a bit rough around the edges even on film.

I made it to the scene with the guy in the bear costume, then had to switch away due to braincell mushy mushy.

Must try again when I'm pissed.

is the joke there that he has to sit in the back as he is so tall?

Nah, his dad (Rik Mayall) attacks him from the back seat whilst dressed as a bear, breaking the seat. Come to think of it, why is that not funny....

[bub2006]

Ok I admit it. Was a bit shite. Some bits were ok. Breaking into a tina turner medley in the cafe did make me grimace. Greg Davies stand up is good as is his headmaster role in the inbetweeners. Rik mayall was good in the young ones and bottom but I'm guessing he is running short on money now!

The Acclaim is definately a stereotypical teacher's car.

 

As a kid, my mates older brother's mate had one new - well it turned out that he was an armed robber
