I thought the exact same thing!!!

[ajprice]

"Tiananmen Square massacre is a myth" on the web search.

Wow. I knew they didn't allow Google etc, didn't know the, um, filtering, went that far.

I really want to buy one of those flying pidgeon bicycles. I think they are a step above the hipster/cycle cic/dutch bike. a quick google and i cannot find anywhere to buy it!! thefore it's the ultimate hipster bike.

...with the accessorised extra cross bar for when pigs need to be carried.

exactly that version.

I thought he said '7 thousand killed on Chinas roads every year', but then he followed it up with '10k were on bikes'.

Must be 70k then

[Jordan210]

I enjoyed the second episode a lot more then the first.

Seamed a lot more factual. I liked the going to buy a bike for £15 and then using it round the city.

Also the recycle a load of bottles for discount travel looks like a great idea.

[Laurel Green]

Yeah but, can't be much of a job sitting in that tin box all day rejecting un-barcoded bottles.

The knock on the door at that bit must have got them a bit

Laughed at the skyscraper with the sound man not going near the edge, love those bits like that when Guy gets them involved, "Point yer camera at this" etc...

Does anyone know why the logo on his T short was blurred on the visit to the scrap yard? I assuming it was either a naughty word or a logo that conflicted with one of the advertisers, but would be interesting to know.

+1

[Triumph Man]

Haven't seen the second one, but watched the first and I have to say I do like the way Guy does things. Also chuckled at the fact that he was walking down a street and suddenly turned and said "oo look Mk3 Transit".

[Hammerhead]

He's certainly not afraid of heights! You wouldn't of got me up there.

[KP328]

The knock on the hotel door was timed to perfection

[hora]

Watching it now. Hmmmmm I'm with that soundman, I'd be gripping the railling shaking my head too.

Chinese building project, I wouldn't like to be on the ground next to it.

[Laurel Green]

Heads up.

[ambuletz]

so he needs to average just under 7.3mph for that cycling challenge.

[K12beano]

Who's the narrator? Can't quite place him...

Fascinating programme - good pace and depth with GM fronting it.

[Iva Barchetta]

Shaun Dooley ,not exactly a known voice on tv.
