For anyone who is interested and who can receive BBC 1, the final episode of car wars is due to be broadcast at 2130 on Thursday 1 November.

The episode was originally pulled for a court case, then one of the subjects featured died when he crashed a stolen car (he is the one in the back of the van apparently).

I am told by my source (who features in the prog) it is by far the best episode, with a fair bit of excitement in it - 4 getting dragged out of the windows of a stolen that is stung, etc etc.

I'm even told there's a broken pelvis involved somewhere in it while one of the subjects does a runner and gets it wrong...

Good point well put!

I are a idiot, and of course meant November 2007.

Whilst I'm delighted that fate achieved what our "justice" system couldn't, I didn't read it to mean the death is to be shown. Just that now the scum is deceased and therefore not due to appear in court, they can go ahead and show footage of him without jeopodising his fair trial.

I mean, supposing someone saw him on the TV and found him guilty on that basis? He might end up getting unfairly sentenced to picking up litter for 4 hours (which he'd not turn up for).

Increase the veiwing figures by a significant amount if we could see the death of a scroat.

Few beers, plates of nibbles and your mates round to cheer.

Never mind, sounds like a good episode so I'll set the SKY+.

My favourite scene is still the Roadwars one were the scroats accomplice trys to do a runner from the passenger side and having jumped from the car is promptly run over by the pursuing police car. How we laughed at that.

Closely follwed by 3 or 4 plod smashing the windows of a stolen car with their asps to get at the oiks inside.

If only the courts were as proactive in making the sentencing a tad more draconian.

Do Bib, in particular traffic Bib watch this? I ask because although I work in a dealership I still watch 'The Garage' on Discovery which is not so dissimilar to my place of work, so is almost like being at work, as is this Car Wars albeit infinitely more entertaining to watch.
