If your Sunday nights have become dull since Downton’s departure, then do watch Channel 4 at 8pm [or 4+1 at 9pm, or 4Od on your PC…] to catch up with the lovely Guy Martin and “How Britain Worked” [website here]It’s a great programme
Thus far he has restored a helter skelter, worked on a piston engine, been down a mine…with the sort of unbounded enthusiasm for history and restoration and engineering and ‘doing stuff’ that I just love. Hands-on, hard graft, no nonsense…brilliant!
Guy is also a great biker, has a girlfriend called Steph, and his Sound Engineer is a mate of ours. What’s not to enjoy?
Ohhh Thanks Angela! I like check that out at nap time later today. At the mo I a only watching Kirstie on 4od, Harry and Paul on iplayer and of course my dirty secret Jezza on itv player. lol

We like Guy too! We first watched the programme he did about restoring a narrowboat, which we thought was great, and we have watched some of the latest series about How Britain Worked - the OH has remarked that he is a bit like a Fred Dibnah for the next generation - he likes to find things out and ask lots of questions and isn't afraid to get in there and get his hands dirty!
ReplyDeleteI saw him on the One Show ,I think it was ,what a charming unassuming natural and talented young chap ...love Jan xx
ReplyDeleteOooh, we love things like this....I hope we get it over here (on a channel we get to see on the computer). We've just finished watching "Coast".
