I have always thought we should have a 'For Sale & Wanted' thread on the forum.

Not wanting to be left out, just watched C and B on the jolly old iplayer.

Thought EJ pretty much summed it up at the end! Good watch, and some nice archive footage of junior formula racing.....

Yep, I watched it last night and found it an entertaining hour. I did strike me what an arrogant so & so TB is/was, plus it was interesting to see & hear others from that time such as Calvin Fish & David Kennedy. The archive footage was also very nostalgic.

Yes to all that! Didn't appear to be too much 'crash' while he was winning championships, unless they skipped over that aspect..... Certainly a very natural talent.

Yes, attack on Parliament. Very sad that not only has a policeman been injured but an innocent person has died. We live in interesting times...................... sadly.

Yes Gerard. Been following it on France24.com.

Sadly there were some French children from Brittany involved, three injured, two of them seriously.

I think the 'Crash' bit relates to his destructive personality as much as anything. I certainly never found him very likeable.

I always thought it was Lawrence Tomlinson's concept anyway so that's probably an accounting change.

Good grief Iain. That's a long way to go for a test on what, as I understand it, is a sprint track.

They certainly did a 'Full English' last year and very good it was to, the room you sit in is up to standard as well.

Still think that Santa Pod beats them though by a whisker.

At Blyton myself next week for the third time and I can confirm breakfast and lunch, along with the facilities are up to scratch. Track is very demanding and the people running it are very helpful. Hopefully it will all remain the same and we can continue to arrange and fill Club test days.

I'm told 'Crash & Burn' is being shown again on BBC4 on Monday evening, don't know what time.

Goodwood MM is also on Monday evening, ITV4 at 9pm UK time.

Bet they clash...

It does indeed clash on Monday. Crash and Burn repeat timings but probably still on iPlayer.
