And I don't normally like car shows.

9. Love the show, but I don't have BBC America. |

When Discovery aired a few shows, I got hooked.

I've only seen the episode where they were in the southern US with various anti-redneck slogans on their cars.

that their precious theme song is a Southern Anthem. ;-)
They just barely got away without being shot. :P :rofl:
edit: It was like watching British rednecks try to goad Southern Rednecks. :P

14. Good. Something nice to watch on TV tonight when I get home. |
|
At least they put to good use an airfield that was to be closed. Took a tour of the place when I was a schoolkid when they were doing final assembly on harriers and hawkers there. (field was ex-British Aerospace).
As for the show itself - it's just a hoot. Loved the American edition, as someone else said "british rednecks goading southern rednecks - about describes it.
