Hi all,

I've not listened to it yet, and the broadcast may not be available outside the UK ...

"Martin Wainwright celebrates the Morris Minor, Britain's first mass-produced, family car."

I'm overwhelmed!!! The BBC has actually allowed me, a wild colonial, to hear one of their broadcasts! That's got to be a first!

It was interesting the way it was presented. We certainly learned about the Morris Minor and Alex Issigonis, but I can't help thinking that Martin Wainwright wasn't the right guy to anchor it!

Its weird being the same age as old people.
You are either part of the problem or part of the solution

I agree, he could have been talking about hairspray...
