discussion Guy Martin's Spitfire Channel 4

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

A it says above, on this Sunday 12th Guy Martin is building a Spitfire, if anyone's seen his previous shows he puts a lot of effort and detail in his projects so should be a good one. That's if it's not a repeat that I've missed and you have all seen it already

Adrain, Who is Guy Martin?

 

[Centurion3RTR]

Guy Martin is a British motorcycle racer, lorry mechanic and occasional TV presenter, and all round nice guy. Looking forward watching it, if the dog lets me lol.

Have fun, John

Guy Martin is certainly a charismatic chap and if his previous sorties into the world of television are anything to go by this should be a decent programme.

Cheers

Guy Martin....top bloke. Saw in the village where I live, he was asking directions, still had time to sign his autograph for my lad.

He's a bit mad.Like all the best people.Saw the one where he was modifying a motocross bike so he could ride across the surface of a lake.Wonder if this is about one of the Spitfires that was recovered from Dunkirk beach,restored and are now based at Duxford?.

Any programme Guy is part of is well worth watching. A grey bloke with a great personality.

Yes Guy is mad as a hatter in many ways.


The series on renovating the canal was hilarious. But he is also madly courageous.


Recent one motorcycling in some traditional race around mountain passes was just crackers.


He won on this souped up machine plus his riding skills from TT etc.


I would not be surprise if he makes a few appearances on the BBC renovated Clarkson show.


OK boss.
