It's not the best programme on the box but I think with some tweaks it could be worth while.

Perhaps I should have a chat with the asst producer :D

Is that Ruth? I've been speaking to her this week about more stuff for the show.

Problem is, there are too many folk in the show who know nothing about cars. It's an okay/nice consumer show for non car orientated viewers. They need more (or at least some) car enthusiasts involved in the content & presentation...IMHO

I was thinking along the lines of getting a group of folk (like us) to drive the cars and then discuss the pros & con's over some coffee.


Let's face it we have a good cross section of folk on here from all the major demographics.

:withstupid

to me it just comes across as a bunch of 6 year school pupils doing a project for how to do a car program...... it's very scripted and amateurish and doesn't bring anything new to the table at all..... I mean how many times have we seen a top 5 countdown with 10 seconds per item which just says stuff like.... Great performance with super styling etc...... What's that supposed to mean!?!?! I can just see them sitting round a table with the thesaurus trying to come up with more descriptives for everything they're trying to describe !!

Trying to watch it and support a Scottish program but it is pretty painful unfortunately.....

:roll:
