it's a british show.

they buy & sell used cars.


pretty hard to keep track of what they are doing, he calls all the parts by weird names.


called a Cotter pin a "splitter pin"

a fender a "wing"

and they have to "fetter" everything.

It is also on Comcast on the HD channel. I think on Comcast it's InHD or something like that. When I notice it on I watch. Pretty good show. Fun to watch what type of cars they pick to work on. Crazy British sayings and terms are fun as well.

yeah, it's a HD channel, so it looks good.

i keep the Closed Caption on.

he said the capri "might be a right dagenham carriage" or something.
figured it meant a rust bucket by the context.
