Google was quite helpful. Apparently he's quite popular on Youtube. They seem to be scraping the bottom of the barrel. Wish they'd drop this bit...

53 million subscribers across platforms will probably mark us out as old men. No idea who he is, but his reach must be immense.

  • Smug face* Always start it 15 mins late, watching the recording on BT Box, able to skip thru "unknown person in Toyota" thing.

A1M or the Humber Bridge on a Lincoln to Caldwell suggest this may not be an entirely real race....

It’s about half hour away and does not involve either! hehe

i'm not a fan but know off him through a few videos I've seen of the Sidemen crew he is apart of. It amazing really these guys started playing games, KSI was fifa and now worth 10s millions.

But York, where they actually started from is a fair bit further...

Edit: not the first to say it

Another good hour of TV other than the guest. I really hope that's not the approach to get the younger viewer.

The VW looked something else.

Shame next week is the last episode. They could do with keeping the momentum going.

Another goodly episode from the team. If they keep this up they'll be up there with Bangers and Cash!

I forgot it was on as I was watching WEC at COTA but mate texted me to remind me. I turned it back over as soon as the Star in the Car bit came on. I, like quite a few on here by the looks of things, don't rate it and I have a particular dislike of anyone that classes being a YooToober/influencer as a job. I know he took part in a boxing match and is probably quite popular but not for me. I'll catch the rest on iplayer at some point when I can fast forward through it. The rest of the programme looked decent though and I've thoroughly enjoyed this series.

Yep, Thirsk was mentioned, that's in North Yorkshire, I know it from collecting one of our dogs from Blue Cross Thirsk.

These guys really working now. Shame it’s end of the series next week. Enjoying these episodes probably more than the last 4-5 series of Clarkson etc.

I am sure my son will know KSI is. I have no idea!

Paddyy is a bit loud but he is a laugh. Flintoff is fun and has nerves and Chris is definitely showing his knowledge and expertise more and more. I really like him. Still miss Matt though!

She's only just recovered from a bout of cancer.

Enjoyed that, including the SIARFC, he seemed like a bloke who wanted to be there and enjoyed being there. That VW thing was properly bonkers, although not as bonkers as Flintoff on that rocket powered skateboard. Real shame that next week’s episode is the last of the series, it’s been a bit of a cracker.
