Episode 7 (I think) was plain odd. I I don’t smoke the herb it was just unhinged and unwatchable.
Back to Freddie Flintoff and his really needy bunch of yoofs
Synopsis is very iRobot, but I'm planning on giving it a go.

It's a bit lower rent than the outback guys, two blokes in a shed buying shit cars, spending pennies on them and trying to make a profit, with occasional success. Like a really low budget Wheeler Dealers, but more real. The two guys are quite likable. It's on Discovery+ if you have it.

Sounds like my early career in the motor trade, which is why I like the outback guys as i can relate to the old shitters they work on! :D Cheers, i'll give it a look! :thumbup:

Not really, but the true story wouldn't have made such a jolly-jape of a filum. :lol:

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare was not for me. Like most of Guy Ritchies stuff i can watch it, but walk away at any point. His formula is getting vey tired.

I'm currently re-watching The English on Prime. Really well acted and a gripping story that reveals itself over the episodes.
