Did it improve after the unwatchable, sub-channel 5 standard of the first two minutes? Anything involving a whiny self-absorbed presenter with a selfie stick and I'm out...

Yes he was gone pretty quick, very annoying character.
We really enjoyed it, wow what an ego.

Went back for another look.. Agreed, it's fascinating. Bizarre how jarring that first couple of minutes are compared to what follows.

We both laughed when the narrator first spoke...we expected him to growl 'Motorcycle racer and truck mechanic Guy Martin...' at any moment!

Good first part though, might binge the next two seeing as it's all on iPlayer.

iPlayer actually has three episodes available to watch.

I've watched them all now and they are all pretty good.

Apologies, thanks for the clarification.
