Men and Motors
I know that most people have Sky or cable but for people like me with Freeview I discoved last evening that M and M are now on Freeview channel 38.
I'm sure this is common knowledge but I missed the anouncement.
Is M and M any good?

No. They've stopped showing all the dodgy non-pR0n after 11pm

Mostly shite. Lots of Septic-Tank shows with vaseline smeared all over the camera lens - you know what I mean.....that slightly blurry picture that American tv's have. How do they watch that stuff?!

No offence to Shazam or any other fellows across the pond.

Ade.

They don't really have coverage of anything much as far as I can see. There was also something in one of the magazines recetly that they were not commissioning any new bike shows as there was more viewers for car shows. Not that you'll miss a lot as it's mostly repeats.

God .. that sounds miserable and depressing doesn't it? Sorry ...

Until recently M&M showed a fair number of generally crap car and bike programmes.

Now they've stopped showing even those and it's now mostly crap old episodes of The Professionals and The Sweeney.

Avoid.

The Sweeney rocks! When TV was gritty, not this washed down american rubbish (excluding 24) we get now.

I'm not really knocking either programme, but really :-

1) this is Men and Motors, where are the Motors programmes ?

2) how many times can you watch that old '70's stuff ?
