Have just seen a clip for next weeks inside out and it looks like a mud club sticker on a range rover bonnet???
-
That will be Neil (Thrasher) what time and when is it on ??
-
It's on BBC 1 next Monday 7.30 inside out, are 4x4's harming the planet??

-
wat 8) ch that one

Hope the presenter (Ashley Blake) doesn't say anything bad about 4x4's as he owns a Rangie just like Thrasher's. He also owns an upmarket pub (http://www.theplace2buk.com) by me and the car park is full of gas guzzling beamers, Mercs, etc..

Oh dear oh dear oh dear....can I hide now?
-
I'll be watching, looking out for 'Nelly on the Telly' aka 'public enemy number one' according to Greenpeace :wink:
-
Should be fun, I may just set the video for it :D
-
The kids love the cars so much they've even given them names.
Can you really blame the kids? :lol:
-
I wonder if we will all be so upbeat about our esteemed colleagues TV appearance once we've seen how they edit it? The last time Inside Out did a piece on the subject, it didn't come across as what you would call 'balanced'. We shall see......
-
During a heated debate Vicky asks Neil, "don't you care about your children - they're going to inherit the planet".
Neil retorts, "They're going to inherit a 4 x 4!"
LOVE IT!!
-
"They're going to inherit a 4 x 4!"
Inherit Piglet........ hmmmm :!:
Neil, you don't fancy adopting any more kids do you :lol:
Edit to add:
If you do - pick me first!

*Puppy Dog Eyes*
Pick Me, Pick Me :lol:

Give that man a round of applause =D>
-
Well done that man. =D> =D> =D>
Managed to find it in time and thought you came across very well Neil.
I notice the only figures she could come up with about running kids over was from the U.S who don't actually do anything a cutting pollution either!! :twisted:
-
Does anyone have a link to it online??
I Live in the south east, and watched it. I saw nothing about 4x4's.
:? :? :?
-
Sharpshooter it was on east not south-east
-

:? :? :?
It was BBC East - not BBC South East - each region has it's own show with it's own "local" issues :roll:
-
that was great publicity for us with the large mud club sticker on the bonet. also well done for sticking up for 4x4s .
-
Go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/insideout

Hopefully there will be a link to clik on soon
:wink:
-

-
I can't find it on the net, either. :(

From the BBC Website (http://www.bbc.co.uk/insideout/east/index.shtml)
Urban 4 x 4s
King of the road or gas guzzler?
Users say they're comfortable and safest for their children.
Campaigners say they're endangering other people's children to say nothing of destroying the planet.
We put Vicky Harrison a Greenpeace campaigner and Neil Brownlee who owns three 4 x 4s in the car together and let them argue it out.
Neil Brownlee loves his Land-Rovers. But not everyone's impressed by Neil's passion.
Greenpeace campaigner Vicky Harrison thinks people like him are public enemy number one.
While Neil spends his weekends having fun in his 4x4s, Vicky spends hers protesting against them.
She's been demonstrating at a Land-Rover dealership in Neil's home town of Northampton. Greenpeace has specifically targeted the 4x4 company, accusing it of selling gas-guzzling cars which contribute towards global warming.
At the Brownlee household choosing a different car means deciding what Land Rover to drive. They've got a fleet of three - mum's already left for work in hers - so the kids get to choose between the V8 Discovery and the V8 Range Rover - both cars top Greenpeace's climate hit list. The kids love the cars so much they've even given them names.
On the road
Vicky agrees to go for a spin with Neil once the children have been dropped off. She's concerned about greenhouse gases due to what she says are the high fuel consumption of the vehicles - and safety, particularly children being knocked over by the bumper.
Vicky and Neil agree... to disagree on 4x4s. Neil disagrees - and reckons by dropping the children on his way to work he isn't making an unnecessary journey.
Land Rover didn't want to take part in our report - but they did tell us that 97% of sales of the new Discovery are diesel models which average around 30 miles to the gallon.
Meanwhile Neil and Vicky will never agree. During a heated debate Vicky asks Neil, "don't you care about your children - they're going to inherit the planet".
Neil retorts, "They're going to inherit a 4 x 4!"
-
nice one neail :D
will try and watch it :D
-
Good Man Thrash! :D
I recorded it on DVD and could convert it to a WMF or similar to upload to the web - is it possible to do this via the Mud Club site? I know the facility to upload vids was possible a while back, don't know if it still is (it wasn't last time I looked)?
Cheers,
Nick

That was great Neil, you came over well, but i have to say i have been converted, i think i am going to get rid of the 300TDI Disco, and get myself a V8 :lol:
I bet Hartwell were gutted about the demo outside their place, must have really killed sales :lol:

Shame you didn't wangle your disputes with H into the conversation.
Greenpeace aren't the only people to threaten to picket them :lol:
Well done Neil.
I'd have driven along and gone.....
"Left hand turn Clyde" :lol:

'twas good, and that point when Niel put his foot down to overtake or something, that V8 Exhaust note was beautiful.
