Fell asleep at that point, hope the Africa 2 parter is more worthy.

Me as well, I just coulden't get enough of it. That's maybe because I like watching it though rather than hate it and watch it anyway.

Last weeks was much better, as they reviewed cars

There needs to be another show on that's a bit more grown up. It's all got a bit too silly now, still mildly entertaining but could be more up my street.

That car for an OAP thing for example, why not try it but have a genuine attempt at getting one sorted, rather than just wrecking another vehicle?!?

Did anyone else notice they blurred the car window a few times on the exterior shots?

I skipped the 'star' section again too.

Quite looking forward to the two-part special though.

Fell asleep last night. Put it back on iPlayer and fell asleep again. At least I was getting paid to watch it, as usual.

Pretty crap all in all ........ I can't see it getting any better - just very tired.

Petrolheads are crying out for something decent along the Motoring lines.

Alas, as long as we - you and I - keep paying these three £1 million per show, it just won't change ...... I want them to be paid on results!!!

This week it's the one with the Scooby in - 1st part of a 2 part trek around Africa or something!

Here's hoping it can redeem itself!

Yes, OK, point well made .....

But, on here, sometimes, you get a different audience who haven't seen me before
