Yeah, yeah, I know I’m late with this one. But starting this Sunday, 12th February @ 10:10pm on BBC TWO is Petrolheads, described by the BBC as:

“High octane comedy collides with amazing stunts and car trivia in a new fast moving car based quiz. Host Neil Morrissey asks the questions and resident team captains Richard Hammond and Chris Barrie battle it out for the title of supreme Petrolhead; helped by actors Philip Glenister from Life on Mars and from The Full Monty, Hugo Speer.”

I have no interest in cars whatsoever, but hopefully this will be worth a watch in the same way that Top Gear is. Chris Barrie and Richard Hammond are always good value.

If you fancy a trip to a recording, here’s the info - you’re possibly too late for the recordings this weekend (although it wouldn’t harm to ring up and ask), but there’s another on Saturday 18th, with more dates due to be announced shortly. You too could be in the same studio that An Evening With Ricky Martin was shot in!

‘ll try to review it this weekend.

LIAR

Forgetting about the whole Richard Hammond thing for a minute - Wikipedia says Petrolheads has been cancelled due to poor ratings. I think it’s a real shame - because, whilst the banter at the start was excerable, once the show got going it was really very funny indeed.

Nothing yet, so we have to assume that it’s cancelled, I think.

Which is a great shame. Get rid of Neil Morrissey, sort out the terrible starting banter, and you’d have a great show. It had me in hysterics at times.
