the bbc version scrap heap challange was great. They canceled it a few years ago after 10 seasons. I have every episode on dvd. It was a good show. I almost cried when they said it was over.

Poor Shelby, if he had a fast Airboat, it would probably kill him..I guess he tore up the floating wheeled truck, all aluminum and stainless rig??It is fun to watch him and his antics..I bet the kid had to have several stiches from the windshield and tree collision?.

That swamp buggy is a pretty old one by the wheel design. I have a friend that has one similar to that one that he does core drilling with. One wheel was damaged in an accident and cost 9500 to replace.

In another thread here about gold rush I found a link to this quote
"""In a formatted documentary, AKA: Reality Show, the story lines are written by script writers before the characters, (participants) every set foot on location (in our case the mine.) The entire show is scripted, outlined and understood by all the production team but is only revealed to the participants that need to influence the storyline. The storyline is what you see as the viewer and all of the drama that is created is for your ratings which sell the program. I know about the script because I had a sneak peak read in April at the Sandy Airport."""
Interesting I gues the drama is more formal than I had imagined.My imagination was something likethey are filming the real deal and the camera people think and say to do something again or to show us how this and that is done.
This is far from reality...
