I've just finished watching a repeat of the programme, was shown earlier on (Thursday night).

An excellent advert for the C5, Chris Barrie did a really good job  8)

Adam Harper also had a superb starring role plus you get to see "Dave" in action - complete with c5alive stickers  ;)

A fantastic episode , I'll keep an eye out for when they release the entire series on DVD coz I will definitely be adding a copy to my collection  ;D

Its a shame because for some reason National Geographic has decided to block that video on youtube and noeone can watch it anymore unless you go through more illegal routes to obtain a copy, its a shame because im a fan of Chris Barrie's impressionist work and his acting (mainly red dwarf)

..having received this email ;

...We are producing a documentary series called 'Britain's Greatest Machines with Chris Barrie' for the National Geographic Channel....



...I've agreed to provide two C5's for the day  8)

Filming is taking place on Tuesday 7th April - not sure when the programme will be screened though .

Should be a fun day   :)

I know it was a long time ago but I remember seeing this when I was on holiday in Australia last year 2012 in the summer holidays. I remember seeing the C5alive stickers on the C5 I think. I think Chris Barrie did not like about the size of the boot and it having no revers gear    ::) ::) ::)
