Think its 8.30pm, Friday - channel 5.

Bit dissapointed with the programme - they certainly chucked the cars around alot but there was no or little mention of steering feedback, chassis behavior, ride, handlingm, performance...just two drivers looning it around on the track.

Then they slagged both cars off as some interior parts fell off! Do they not know that this is a TVR tradition? Seriously, i know that this is exactly what they have tried ot improve but its hardly the most important issue

Thanks for the information.......I understand that there was a competition to win a Chim as well. One of those very difficult questions that only 99.99% of the population will know the answer to, but I suppose has to be worth investing £1.50.

On the general TVR thread, there was extensive discussion about the dual merits of Vicky on the programme and the thread seems to have been disappeared...

From a legal perspective, they have to ask a question to ensure it's a game of skill not a game of chance. Otherwise the tax situation gets a whole heap more complicated. Now, a question such as "2+2=" is technically a game of skill, but imagine how few people that'll put off entering.

In case you feel the need to dig out some reference books and do a bit of research in advance, I believe the question was:
'What is a V8?
a) A type of engine
b) something ridiculous
c)something even more ridiculous'
