Do the makers of Car SOS continually recap what they're doing and why they're doing it through the programme as there are soooooo many advert breaks that you may forget what the programmes actually about...?

I love watching adverts over and over again; the actual programme content is an annoyance.

Do the shopping channels have adverts?
Only a female would be able to answer that.

I think that the ‘TV Delivery Law’ applies. The number of channels showing advertisements at any given moment in time is Directly proportional to the number of presses on the TV remote.

Car SOS concept is very good, helping petrol heads relise their dreams that some how slipped away by circumstances, usually ill health. I think that, for me, its pivitol the actual presenters of motoring programs have some kind of general appeal e.g. Ed China, Mike Brewer, Vicky Butler Henderson, Tiff Needle, David Coulthard.....etc etc. I've tried but I just can't watch SOS anymore, Tim Shaw can take the credit for that along with the producer who dreams up the stupid situations for Mr Shaw to act out; more suited to children's programming. Ant Anstead is awarded the gold medal for any kind of anti pleasurable viewing, so wheeler dealers also got the chop. Mike Brewer and Ed were a great team along with the original excellent trio of Top Gear, J May, The Orangutang and the hamster, I've not watched TG since . Mr Brewer now teamed up with
'Elvis' Priestly has got things back on track, excellent. Before I go, another real annoyance Steve Jones on F1. More Lee Mackenzie, much more natural along with Eddie Jordan and the brave Billy Monger. Rant over!

Agree regarding original wheeler dealers with Ed China, loved that.
