Switched off after about 10 minutes.
The problem is that anyone who is not a caravanner watching the programme would have been given the stereotypical view of caravanners which Jeremy Clarkson loves to portray.
We caught the fiasco of Grenville's attempt to tow up the hill on an other website. Completely forgot about tail swing and tail end ground clearance. Mind you, we have all done silly things and got away with it. He didn't.
Don't think we will be watching the second programme.
Dickers.

When I saw Grenville trying to drive up that slope which was obviously to steep I thought this has got to be a wind up. Then he Used a tape measure to see if the awning was level all round. I did watch the rest as I thought it would improve but was still disappointed. What sort of competition expects someone to reverse a unit when they have never driven it.

Absolute joke but comical in a way , fancy trying to pull your unit up an uneven incline like that !! Embarrassing for the top dogs at CC !! And a hefty bill . Why force the partners to reverse when they've never done it ! They done well though .
As as for the anarach who was partnered with his mum ?!?!? How he didn't flatten her on the reversing challenge I do not know !

I watched the second episode and it was just as farcical as the first. Andy Harris is supposedly an experienced Motorhomers, he started off by saying everyone should know the size of their vehicle. He then drove down a road and got stuck. It seems to me as though they were trying to put people off of Carvanning.
