www.freewebs.com/the3gracesnorthwest

just thought that i'd mention that a program starts on the 19th of febuary on bbc 4 at 18.30 with richard wilson (victor meldrew) driving classic cars
there are six episodes and in each episode he drives a different car around a different location
in episode two on the 26th of feb he is driving a 1957 high/line zodiac from the 3 graces north west
fingers crossed it turns out to be good viewing

I find it hard to believe that anyone viewing this would not have come back on with some comment about seeing a car like they used to have, or how things have changed.
So I can only conclude that nobody has looked at it.

I have been watching BBC4 and I am thoroughly enjoying these motoring programmes. The joy of motoring was excellent and I am looking forward to the rest of the Richard Wilson series. Cool

I saw the programme on the joy of motoring and thoroughly enjoyed it...

Perhaps we should keep this thread going and just add details programmes which we think may be interesting. I know I am always missing stuff... Wink

Watched Penelope Keith today and thoroughly enjoyed it - a real treat to hear that little "sewing machine" de Dion engine ticking away. Very Happy

I've recorded that and will watch it later - out of interest, what do people think of Classic Gear on M&M? It's been a bit hit and miss but the last episode was an hour long feature on Jaguar containing some great footage of C & D Types at Le Mans which was really interesting. Smile

Hi
If you can forget the moderns and references to T** G***
there are some intereting bits in this.
