Turn for the worst coming up. What could possibly go wrong? Bike turns into a 125cc at destination?

Nah, bike has a ticket but he doesn't is my guess.

Turns out the rail system is on par with British Rail.

True

I enjoyed that, looking forward to the second episode! .

[MC Bodge]

Very good

I never wanted to go to India, but watching that has just reminded me of why. I know many will say the experience, but even in our worst times, we would not put up with that. Life must be so hard for those who are not rich. How they can spend on a space programme whilst people are forced to live like that is beyond me.

Looking good so far, he reminds me of Fred Dibnah, who's also a legend!

He is indeed the new Fred Didnah. But the difference is that Guy Martin has been manufactured by TV execs, complete with cod Yorkshire accent.

I liked his outlook throughout the whole program.

He looked liked he was enjoying himself.

Yorshshire?

Guy Martin is not manufactured by TV execs, that is just him being him.

Met Fred once, he was just like you would expect him to be, a top man. Down to earth and a pleasure to speak to.

It was a great programme, looking forward to next week.

Without wishing to sound gay I could watch Guy all week long. Such an engaging likeable character getting up to very appealing stuff on the small screen.

Great programme.

Erm Lincs accent.

I enjoyed watching the cod Yorkshire accent manufactured celebrity.

I'm amazed at how wound up I get at that fake 'under pressure, oh no, will he make it?' crappy music and voice they used when he was about to get on the train. I loved every other bit of that program, but that made my skin crawl so much that I nearly turned it off at that point.

A good program ruined by 10 seconds of st production

What he said; Guy comes from the flat featureless bit that was left over after they made Yorkshire. The good burgers of Hull even arranged for a bridge to be built so the inhabitants of Lincolnshire could escape to civilisation(i.e. somewhere other than Hull) more easily.

Hmmm.

You've obviously not met or spent time with Guy, he is like that all the time, and his accent is nothing like Yorkshire, it's proper Lincolnshire.
