Someone at Channel 5 is having a laugh - how can you get that many prats on tv in one hourwatch priminsters question time
or ice road knobheads, loggers, trawlermen etc etc blah blah.
put anyone in front of the camera and they turn into a complete ■■■■.
most normal drivers would tell em to get stuffed.
First two for sure,but you won’t find too many volunteers for life on the Baring Straits,they need their heads read even by American standards.

i used to entertain my kids of tales when i was a trucker now that they have watched this they think im a [zb]
And that is it.
In these Days you have the People from the Uni in the Offices.
The Uni where they it the Inteligency with a Spoon but getting no Experiance,whats all about that Business.Then they manage that every Experianced musst laugh why they like newbys in Transport,fitting Warehouse Staff wit HGV License or taking Drivers direct from the Test Centre as they take orders without smile in there Face,and treath Office Staff and Management People like dealing with the Lord himself.
Not that it were wrong to be rerspectfull to others,but as they take Orders without Critic makes them also thinking its his fault when it gets wrong.
I sah one 15 minute of Stobby on Telly and one Hour Iceroad truckers where the Lad lost his Seat,walked back in Sleeper to boil Coffee and Tank Lorry flipped over.
No driver would do that,but tell that now the Publik after that Movie.
I’m not gonna knock peoples hobbies, everyone likes different things and if 7000 people (to be fair their were a fair few kids there by the looks of it) want to go and see a few Stobbart trucks lined up then fair play to 'em.
I think the reason a few on here seem to quite jaded by the idea is that you, we, whatever, are in and around trucks every day, we’ve sat behind the wheel, we’ve sounded the horn (usually at some ■■■■■■ in a car who can’t find his indicators), we’ve had to night out unexpectedly in whatever parking area we could find. We deal with the ins and outs and so the mystery and allure is gone, it’s our job. What Stobbart have done is no different to a football team selling its merch, they appeal to their fanbase and have made a bit of money off them.
What does annoy me about the show is how the drivers are presented. Ok, a couple of them do seem to have become Divas at this point but that has to be at least in part down to the editing. Over a 10 hour shift they’ve cut it down to maybe 2 minutes of the driver actually driving? I think they paid attention to the arse of the woman in the green skirt for longer than any of the actual job. Then again, what would the viewing figures be if it wasn’t cut up into nice 10 second long shots before moving on to the next?
If anything, it’s good junk television to have a laugh at if you’ve got nothing better to do on a Friday night. Personally, I’d rather be getting wasted but with having to work after that probably wouldn’t be such a good plan.

You know that Tink and Billy are gambling men, well what’s the betting they have devised a little wager between themselves, something along how many discussion threads we can get going on the internet that mentions the company name
I would be embarrassed to drive a green lorry into a customers yard at the moment.

Im just waiting for Bewicks take on it, he obviously watched it!
Can’t see what the bog problem is with this program its designed to be enjoyed by the genral public who dont have much to do wtih trucks in there daily lives, and by and large allot of people seem to enjoy watching it
Was it me being blind, but didnt anyone else notice that ‘Tim Fox’ nearly take out a vehicle on the duel carriageway?
@ mickyblue. Yeah, signalling and moving over with a car beside him.
