I would like to have seen what would have happened if he'd stayed in that hole a few minutes longer!It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Thought it was really good. I’m definitely a man as I can do all the things on there including the half playing the guitar thing. I’d half forgotten how good James May is as a freestanding presenter TBH.....0

I thought it was utter crap. Nonsense.0

And how predictable was that 'bomb' exploding behind him as he walked away? It's got Top Gear written all over it without the production values.
I like James May, but won't be watching this show again.0 -
Agreed, dodgy. Waste of time.0

Nice idea, but confused and poorly executed. They made a big deal about how few men can wire a plug then made a half arsed, confusing rhyme about remembering how to do it. What about explaining why the earth is important, how to trim the wires etc?0

Yep, on the plug thing. Easy to remember - BLue (bottom left) BRown (Bottom Right).
Agreed, very confused flow.0 -

If you need telling how to wire a plug, when its written inside almost all of them for you anyway, then details on how to strip a wire might just blow your mind.0 -
I was really looking froward to it, but it turned out to be total crap IMHO.
More than a snif of Brainiac about it for my liking.
I was hoping it would be a shorter faster version of somethink a boat/heli/bike/car is born type of thing. I.E. watching someone doing something intersting, that I had no intention of doing myself.
Kitchen worktop - rubbish
Model train thing - rubbish
Love song, easy guitar thing - rubbish
Quite enjoyed the bomb thing, but got frustrated because they'd show a couple of mins of it then something else, oddly enjoyed the boot polishing thing too.0 -

At work we had to throw out any wired plugs we had when we hat a PAT test. Health and Safety rules seem to say that all plugs should be moulded onto the end of the wires and you should not be wiring them yourselves any more...!0 -
