Hello,

What watch was the bearded block from Oz wearing?

How about giving people a little more to go on? I assume you mean Boris Becker, yes? You could go to the BBC iPlayer, pause it and do a screen grab of the particular piece you are interested in then post it on here, that would be good.

<lol> ... Argh! ... Typed that way too early! ... Meant the beardy one from Oz! Next time must remember to drink my cup of coffee before switching on the PC

I did try and look at it on iPlayer last night but could not identify it. It was flashed while they were having the BBQ.

At work at the moment so no iPlayer to take the grab from.

I am pretty sure the Australian racing drivers watch was an IWC big pilot.

That's what I thought as well, but with my ageing eyesight, one can never be too sure ...

I thought the same, IWC big pilot.

Glad it's not just me who's started noticing people's watches on TV... James May was wearing an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean with orange leather strap in the 'Brooklands Scalextric' show that was repeated last night

It is a big pilot, sorry for the confusion. I have watched a number of clips with this chap in it, I didn't go by Sundays episode. For what its worth, the full length version of the Ashes, from the Australians perspective is brilliant, it's truly hilarious.

He was? Pity ... Thought he had more taste than that

It was a bit of a surprise, I saw him wearing something more historical...

He must have borrowed it off Clarkson.

Thought JM "normally" wears either his IWC or Rado ... Mind you, he probably/obviously has more watches than that ... Also, now that he has a F430 he probably has some garish Panny as well

Ah! I knew I'd seen it before! I felt like I was drunk because I didn't know why I'd seen half the programme and the other half was completely new.

I was sent a link a while ago for youtube but it has since been taken down. Searching in youtube will show sections of when they visit. They buy 3 british cars and drive around, through a safari park etc If I can find the full version I will let you know.
