Guy Martin's Spitfire

[bednobs]

could have been a really interesting program, totally spoilt by GM. EVERYTHING about him annoys me from the way he talks (not his accent, but his manner of speaking) to his pointless annoying facial hair! GRRRRR

[Slapshot]

WAS SIMPLY BRILLIANT!!

[tonyav]

What channel was it on and is it on catch up ?.

[Jomlett]

[bednobs]

[tonyav]

Thanks both.

[bednobs]

be prepared to be annoyed tony :)

[tonyav]

Will do, bednobs. But does he get a Spitfire to fly ?.

[bednobs]

dunno, it hasn't ended yet!

[tonyav]

LOL, ah right bednobs.

[Jomlett]

Guy's SO enthusiastic...he's always like that!

S0ditt, I meant to watch that, I love Spitfires, I don't mind GM either. Him and Fred Dibnah seem to have come from a similar mould.

[paulllambert]

I have enjoyed everything I have seen Guy Martin in. Seems a really decent chap IMO

[Slapshot]

Guy is brilliant (Mrs S is in deep lust with him), he was our guest at the Grampian Motorcycle Convention a couple of years back and an absolute scream, he is just a genuine bloke, still a bit struck by all the fame that's come his way, he is a modern day Fred Dibnah. As the program comes to an end you can see something that's never been seen before and that some real emotion from him. it was a fantastic program!

[ferlew]

Glad someone else sees the link between him and Fred :)

[mazie]

My old man loves him and is still talking about last night's programme... which is a little boring if you're not into spitfires :o(

[mazie]

Or cars come to that, I'm sick of hearing about his Volvo

[Ratty2E]

It was a really interesting and emotional program but I found it hard work trying to understand what Guy was saying half the time. I have watched him before and his accent is very strong but he seemed particularly mumbly on this
