The Motor Show (1990s TV series)
Discussion
Anyone remember the motoring programme shown during the 1990s presented by Eamonn O'Neal and Nikki Fox called The Motor Show?. I think it was produced by Granada TV and I had initially thought it was only ever shown in the North West (Granada region) of the UK, but I came across a recording on youtube from the Central region so it must've been aired in other regions. For some strange reason there is barely any mention of this series on the net, and IMDB comes up blank, and even under the presenters name there's no mention of a Motor Show. Info about it seems very obscure for some reason.
Anyone know how long the show lasted for? I do recall it was still being aired up until about 97, but no idea if it continued to be shown after that. I have one or two eps on tape from about the mid 90s, one where they talk to a bloke from the Wirral about his series 2 OTS E-Type and they test drive it with a new Jag XK8.
Another car program that seems to be lacking in information on is the Channel 5 program The Car Show from the late 90s presented by Mariella Frostrup.

I remember this show, it was quite good and had the lovely Mariella Frostrup as presenter.
Seems like both the The Motor Show series produced by Granada TV, and the above mentioned "The Car Show" are lacking in info on the net for some reason as regards to how long the series lasted for and details on episodes. I don't remember The Car Show running into the 2000s, but I could be wrong. As for the The Motor Show, I've no idea how long they made the series. None of these programs appear on IMDB or even wikipedia for some reason even when you look up the presenters names. Looks like The Motor Show was broadcast on Men & Motors, which was a joint venture between Granada TV and Sky Broadcasting.
It was lasted twelve 30 minute SD episodes. Main presenters as you say were Eamonn O'Neal, Nicky Fox (although the One Media Licensing Catalogue I found says Bicky Fox...) , Steve Parker and Will Hoy. Can't say I remember it.
