Yeah, it is a little boring!

Might not bother watching it on iplayer in that case.

This was on BBC4 as part of their Joy of Motoring season a while ago. Mr Hunt's spectacles are so deeply rose tinted, I do not believe he can see through them at all.

What would the annoying kid from George and Mildred know about motoring? The BBC are useless.

[dollywobbler]

It was crap. I turned it off.

Zzzzz, yet more psuedo-intellectual bollocks that fills time and says nothing. Can't they get Johnathan Meades to do one featuring 100% on matters automotive? That I would watch, rather than these other twats they get to do these things.

It was almost as annoying as when they put that schoolboy who presents F1 in a race. He clearly has no driving ability at all - which is fine, you don't need driving talent to wield a microphone. But why do they insist on putting him in powerful cars?! He's RUBBISH! He clearly has absolutely no idea how to drive.

I'd certainly watch that, I think Meades is a bit of a car enthusiast, he owned/owns an XM.

[michiel]

Recorded, will watch at double speed probably...

Johnathan Meades

Figures.

Though I'd have Meades down as a DS type.

Maybe he's got one in the garage for sunday best. In black, naturally, to match the usual shades/clothing...
