I have never seen such a lot of drivel as I did on last nights extended 'Drivel'. A "Jelly Test" for chrissakes. The motoring programme as we know it is truly dead and buried.

Perhaps they could combine it with a bimbo from Men and Motors and do a topless test...?

I also think the wrong bloke won the presenter competition.

I agree (with the wrong bloke won bit). Why did they go through that farce when all it boiled down to was personality. The viewers should have voted – not the jelly moulders!

What d'you mean about PC? I thought it was harsh but fair! All the women were dumped out at the first session - and quite rightly so, Mike Brewer even said one of them couldn't drive. As for the jelly test I thought it was hysterical! Except the poor guy in the KIA couldn't crack any jokes because his jelly didn't wobble!

I got so bored by it that I went to bed....

I must say the jelly bit gave me a chuckle in a light hearted way but I would be right up for Teds Men & Motors version and a Tittie wobble test that would have been great. After all we all know that driven isn't a "serious" car program just complete bollox.

flasher and myself were members of the audience for the presenter bit...everyone voted for the guy in the blue shirt and the impression we and the presenters got was that he had it in the bag, I was amazed when I saw it on telly and they ignored everything and chose the black guy, you could tell he was gutted...the camera was on his face all the while

Typical of their Driven 100 tests though. They get a bunch of points for one car then cast that aside and decide the winner on desiralookadrivability or whatever 'bility' they are using that week...

Does the Jelly Test, measure how many of their brain cells have turned to mush.
