Travel Channel (Freeview 42) Currently on air, back to back episodes of "Paddy McGuinness : Stars in their cars". Well known TV personalities get to relive their youth by driving cars they drove decades ago. 1st episode I've seen is Neil Morrisey, cars in his past include a Mini 850, Capri JPS Special, BMW 735i, etc. You may remember a TV Producer posting on here many months ago, was trying to borrow a Mk IV Cortina for a new TV show - I'm guessing this is the one. Apologies if anyone has mentioned this previously & I've missed it. 2nd episode on is Patsy Kensit; Stars in their cars

Patsy's automotive line up was:- Fiat Panda BMW 525i Bristol 603 Austin Mini
I'm guessing she doesn't spend much time under the bonnet of her cars as, when Paddy unveiled the big yank V8 under the bonnet of the Bristol, she giggled "It looks like a bagpipes." !!??!!
Not brilliant but a few interesting snippets about the various cars so worth a watch if it's a quiet night on the box.

Oh dear, another nostalgia program, all the classic car dealers will be watching this with £'s in there eyes, gives them another excuse to hike their prices up!
Sorry if that sounds a bit cynical but its probably true.

Thought the E34 525 they got was a bit ropey. Looked like something I would drive ;D

Looked like something I would drive ;D Tom Yeah, I picked up on the squeaky belt when they started her up & thought that they haven't found the most pristine example. It's bound to be the same programme that TV Producer was posting about ages ago so it's entirely possible that most of the cars have been scrounged rather than hired.

I enjoyed the 1st episode with Neil Morrisey but Patsy Kensit was just annoying... hopefully Vic and Shaun will be better.... overall, got the potential to be a decent new show
