Car Crazy Katie

Who better to present a motoring programme than another celebrity bint?

---

[apache]

obviously well qualified for the task...can't wait

[sheff3]

Bimbo in a beama, fan ble***ng tastic.
Do you think her SS staff car (Clarkson's words not mine) will be that exciting nay daring and rare shade of shinny battleship grey that we all love so much?
Or maybe hairdresser (sorry for all those women and southerners out there that's boutique or saloon) blue?

[tuscan_v8]

Damn no cable at my house! LOL

[Nightmare]

come on chaps - lets not slate it until we've watched it and laughed at it (probably). She may be really good - Panny Mallory on driven is (IMO) exellent (cos she could outdrive anyone on this forum most likely!) This one might be fun too.

Or it may well be another 'carnage' - It must be Monday, Im trying to be reasonable!

Night

[PetrolTed]

Penny Mallory / Katie Richmond, I know which one I'd rather watch

[apache]

Drivel's on tomorrow night and hopefully me an flasher will be on there slagging off an Audi in favour of a Skoda. They are a nice bunch of people actually. PM is tiny but nice

[Nightmare]

do you think you will be on it? If so I'll make sure I get it recorded..cool!

Ted - fair point, well made! (except that we already know she won't get her kit off for monye )

[apache]

depends what they edit....Flasher is the large chap hogging the camera, I'm the camera shy good looking one making shrewd observations

[Don]

Actually I quite like Penny Mallory....

[domster]

"I absolutely love driving. I’ve got a Z3 at the moment..."

Can anyone spot the oxymoron?

LOL

Domster
PS Apologies to Z3 owners everywhere, but I've spent a fair bit of time with an M Roadster (Z3M) and it is fairly pants to be honest. There are better sports cars out there for the dosh. M Coupe is a different matter, tho'.

[USTVRDUDE]

I would assume this is loosely the forum where one
would use this icon

Particularly if I've not had a chance to see this bird
but if she turned down Playboy, she can't be a woofer.

So I'll send the boys instead

[Marshy]

Tell me this isn't the same Katie that does home videos on Sky One? (Easy lads, don't mis-construe that...)

If it is... oh dear oh dear. At least most of the people on Top Gear, Drivel, et. al. can actually present. If it's not her, then er, well, OK then.

[PetrolTed]

No it's not. Not that I'm any sort of expert on cable TV bimbos...

[chrisjl]

I was at Oulton Park for a track day when they were filming one of the episodes, about high performance Japanese cars.
Ms. Richmond's reaction to doing a few fast laps in a Warrender Evo VII was filmed BEFORE she went out in the car, so don't expect too much in the way of valuable editorial content.
Still, that's probably not why you'll be watching!

[Nightmare]

it's so unfair to assume that just because she's really pretty she will be unable to make sensible comments on performance cars....
no really it is
honest

lets face it though - the presenter is less and less relevant as its the producers/writers (whoever) that determine the content now - and most of them have as much clue as a transport secretary who doesnt even hold a driving license.......

Night

[peteosborne]

Okay, time to stick my oar in...
VBH? She's gorgeous in person (not bad on telly either), and she can drive like no woman i've ever met. Mind you, there was a certain lady driving a certain Group B Audi Ur-Quattro at Goodwood last year that would probably show Vicki up.
And that husky voice sends shivers down my spine (in a good way).
Yummy.

That'll be Kirsty's Home Videos (and my girlfriend thinks I watch it because it's funny - bit like watching Angel 'cos I have to ... absotively nothing to do with the pretty girl).

Talking of which I'm getting quite into "Game Pad" on sky something or other I started watching it when they reviewed Gran Turismo (I still can't get a chuffing speed 12) but now only watch it as the bird has great chumny warners and a cleavage you could absail into !!

Try and win (which isn't too difficult)

Gran Turismo All Stars - Race 3

I currently have a bright yellow racing spec Speed 12. It is a bit of a nightmare to control though.

Any chance of someone posting a picture of Katie so I can work out if it's worth getting a dish.

Cheers.
