Well the show was a flop in the ratings. Only 3.3m tuned in, 10.1m were watching BBC1 and 3.4m were watching Channel 4 at the same time

Very sad to hear it didn't get the attention it deserved. But that's what happens when your up against "Pirates of the Caribbean" on BBC1..."the ONE for Christmas" lol.

Not necessarily a flop. It was always going to be beaten by a movie premiere, and it will almost certainly overtake Deal or No Deal when the ratings become finalised.

Poor ratings but to be expected. It still did quite well considering the competition on BBC One.

It did very well considering the competition. Lets hope ITV see that.

This is why i suggested it being on ITV would be a bad idea. For a programme like this to be successful it surely cannot be run on a commercial station!

Well there are two more one-off specials to be shown yet, so it still has a chance to prove itself.

nice to see the same film crew back with her. Saw Dave the sound man on the underground about ten years back, didn't let on though as he wasn't working, just sat there looked as bored as the rest of the passengers.

it's certainly getting plenty of repeats on the community channel.

would be fab if someone could cap the credits music clean *hint*

Some more trivia:

The original truck driver was Paul Puplet, and the cameraman was Martin Hawkins. The theme music was written by David Mindel

IMDB has this on Martin: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0370181/
and this on David: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0591054/

The one on Dave is a different Dave, the sound guy is Dave Chapman not Dave Mindel

Yes, I know - I never said it did refer to Dave Chapman. Confused
