Fifth Gear on the Ilkley

Some listings have it down for this Thursday (24th) at 7.30: http://www.tvthrong.co.uk/fifth-gear/fifth-gear-five-0

But the fifth gear trailer for this week doesn't seem to mention it at all...

  2. Really looking forward to it. I think Tiff, Jonny and the crew approached it with the right degree of seriousness and good humour. Tiff even managed a smile when the locals called him Jeremy when they were filming the sequence through the Dobbs Park water splash. Looks like I will be down at Lydden when said Jeremy and his fellow morons are filming on 7 August. Wonder if he would smile if I shout "What ho Tiff".

  4. What did you think? I thought it was good. Interesting that Daves car has 30 stone of lead under the bonnet!

  6. Just got back from holiday and seen this for the first time. Very good - thanks again to Dave and our friends in the north for making it happen. Amazing what you can do with a Golf on a £300 budget! Or did they get the numbers mixed up ie £30 and 300 stone of lead?
