The dam bungee jump was horrible drink-free; what the hell was it like with a drink inside?

Enjoyed this from the start. That Le Baron is an absolute joke! The wheel vibrations looked I insane.
to be fair this could have been due to a shagged tyre (that's the only positive thing you can say about it).

The golf driving range had me in tears.

As for the dam - just FRO, absolutely NO. fkING. WAY!!

Now that’s how to do entertainment. Proper laughed at the convertibles from McGuiness crashing when getting a face full of lube to Harris in the dinosaur costume, but proper shat meself watching that bungee jump, I think you’d have to pay me an awful lot of money to do that!

It was very good, funny, properly entertaining tv.

It was also about cars, but only as a Mcguffin.

No SIARPC, no buggering round the track tedium.

Keep this up, please Clare.

Grate TV, the bungie would have better with both of them in it or even all 3 of them now that would have been funny, but I suppose Flintoff is the only one with the balls to do it.

I thought it was a brilliant episode. The bungee ending I found very hard to watch and Freddie must be a complete nut job to do that. A great start to the series for sure.

The Metro dam bungee jump was an impressive bit of engineering and bravery.

Proof, if it were needed, that whatever it is that makes normal humans avoid danger is completely abscent in Fred. A few too many Aussie bouncers?

Harris in the T-Rex costume running across the driving range had me in tears, I think I only saw half of it as every time I managed to clear my tears enough to focus on the screen I was convulsed in hysterics again!

They defo need to bring the Atom back in the dry.

When he was running around after he left the car and the way the head flipped back when it took a direct hit.

Tears of laughter!

I really enjoyed that, best I have seen for ages.

Harris on the driving range was so funny.

Fair play to Flintoff in the bungee jump.
