I think some of you take it too seriously.
I hate the show personally BUT I wont miss a chance to see a Defender on tv/video/etc....
AND there was plenty of the Defender!!
There seems to be a neutral product placement as I never heard any mention of "Landie" "Land Rover" only ref I heard was to "vehicle"
So did I.Quote:

Also, it's obvious Defender hand brakes don't work! :D
I watched the last episode, but wasn't impressed,...no need for the number of times his "privates" got involved etc.
But, if I'm around, and there's nothing better on, I'll probably give it another go.
