Anyone watching this? It's presented by VBH and a bloke who looks like Austin Powers. I keep hoping it's going to get better but so far no joy....

That's the bit I couldn't believe. It was dreadful first time round. A decent idea, and I guess well enough made, but the fella Alex whatsisname is never a presenter, albeit I'm sure he does a better job than I could!!

He's a comedian and writer, apparently. I've not seen any evidence to prove it yet though.

VBH. Alex Riley. Either/or; it ain't going to be good.

Why invent a concept for a show and then immediately break it?

If it was because you only had access to the cars in that museum, then change the bloody concept.

"The year is 1976. Here's a Ferrari 308 from not 1976, and a Lotus Esprit Turbo from not 1976 as well."

Bag o' ste.
