I know nothing about fixing cars but love this show. Gus and Will are totally likeable and I could watch this all day.

Three series in, please can we have more Flipping Bangers! Why this isn't on mainstream Channel 5 in the UK is beyond me, this is so much better than Wheeler Dealers, as the two guys Gus and Will come across as genuinely nice and knowledgeable guys, plus you want them to do well.

A truly enjoyable car show even for the layman with zero knowledge of how to fix cars. I'm sure that using a rattle can to do resprays might cause upset among the car industry but so what? Gus and Will are top blokes sharing their knowlege! More Flipping Bangers please!

This was very good to begin with, but the moderb need to include lesbian scenes was totally pointless and unnecessary. The final two episodes or this became silly and I only watched to find out whodunnit. Clara Ruggard is great in this but where do you with Neve after 8 episodes, other than her become the new Marty Hopkirk character helping her father solve up north crimes? Clara Ruggard did a great job but the script fizzled out like a damp squib aftee episode 6. Worth a watch once solely for a top performance by Ms Ruggard as the lead.

For old-school Paul Temple fans this is a marmite version of the show i.e. You'll either love it or hate it. If you were a fan of Paul Temple on the radio this will probably not be your cuppa tea. That said, if you don't know the original, and love 60s and 70s British cult TV, you'll love it!

Personally I am in the other camp - for me this is a standalone show which should probably be thought of as its own thing rather than the Temple you know from the radio. This is a fantastic bit of cult British TV with Francis Matthews jetting off to different places, particuarly in series 2 and 3. A must see for fans of similar shows from the period.

Each week Temple end ups in some sort of mystery that needs solving and by pestering around looking for clues, he'll often come up with who did it. For me this is on a par with Columbo, but with the styles and fashions of the 60s in 70s just with better locations. If you like ITC shows from this period you are going to love this one too.

There is a mix of studio and on location filming and unlike many ITC shows from the period, Temple is really in the places he says he is, jetting off to Munich, Amsterdam and Stockholm This is classic cult TV and if you're an ITC show fan, this is definitely for you. RIP Francis Matthews, a super actor.
