Oh yeah, perhaps should have said - it's essentially the history of the road movie. After watching it you will realise Badland's is the best movie ever made, Clarkson is a woman and Lucas is a curse word.

We use it from Germany to access iplayer, 4od etc. Also allows access to country-specific youtube content. Best 6 quid we spend each month. Not retro car related directly, but I hope this info will give some of the non-uk folk the ability to keep up with the gossip on here |

I like Rich Hall. He gets sarcasm and irony , which seems to be lost on many Americans..
Watched this last night , thanks for the link bigbadad.

He did another a couple of months back called Dirty South which was about the way the South of America has been unfairly stereotyped by the movie industry.
I watched Continental Drifters last night.
I really like Rich Hall and love his humor, and while I do like these movie history shows he does, I do struggle through them and find him very pretentious and dismissive of some great movies, just because they have a lot of action, comedy or gore in. For instance his dismissed the Smokey And The Bandit Films saying they'd lost the key element of 'rebellion' that should be in a road movie, and said Mad Max and Natural Born Killers were a parody just because they took things to more graphic level.
His rant on Clarkson was nothing compared to his rant on people who get into artists music via films made about their history, ie Johnny Cash and Walk The Line. I've been looking for a transcript of that as it's epic.
