Wheeler Dealers . A Car Is Born
Do you watch these? I like the programs but the profit made by Mike is a Joke at times, the money spent on some of these cars that Ed repairs, who in their right mind would make a small profit after the work / time Ed put's in, the other program a car is Born, the program is also a good program but the presenter comes over as a right clown with his actions, do you watch them?

I'm sure most comments here are correct - it's an entertainment and does the job well precisely because of all the fakery etc. which you aren't supposed to think about...the cost/profit is insignificant when set against what they sell each programme for to the tv companies.
It's like that "60 minute makeover" where a house is done over - if you look carefully you can see all the stuff that's been pre-done, like all the flooring, carefully protected by plastic sheets, but the overall effect does the job.

The wife and I always say they do all that work for £1000 profit!? As said, its an entertainment show!
A Car/Plane/Helicopter is Born were all presented by Mark Evans and this show wasn't really about making a profit, but just showed how you could build a kit car etc in "10 easy instalments in a nice workshop" whereas the average John would take 10 years in his garage!
