[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Maybe, but that Tim whasisname is an even bigger dickhead than Fatty Brewer.

No, it's the one with Tim "Parts blagging" Shaw and Fuzz Townshend (ex technical editor of Practical Classics and drummer for Pop Will Eat Itself back in the 90s..)

[STEMO]

Neither programmes are made to be taken too seriously, entertainment (supposed) is the main aim.

Car SOS is the best of the restoration shows , only thing that spoils it is Tim "blagging" the parts , just so contrived 

[zirk]

Well I think both WD and SOS are Entertaining, I must admit and Man Up to some of the SOS endings have more than once nearly had me tears, when you see the Joy on someones Face looking at his pride and joy.

Didnt that Ed China Fella have a big fall out with Mark Brewer off set over the fact that he was the only one doing all the Work and Mark claiming the credit or something like that.

Fixed and no, they do Classic Car Rescue

Car SOS is the one where they restore the pride and joy of various people who can't for various reasons.

Has he changed his name since you started the thread?

Mike brewer wanted the focus of the show to be his wheeling and dealing and Eds work to be shown less

[Keith ABS]

Attaboy productions sold out to an American outfit.
Along came the American car buying road trips and then the US workshop.
Then the US company started to dictate the shows content saying they wanted less technical bits
(playing down to the US viewer?)
Edd got brassed off with that and decided to leave.
Mike has since had death threats about Edds leaving
Not seen the new shows with Ant.
I prefer Fast and Loud personally as I like the stuff they do

[Bigron]

That's the complete opposite to what the viewers want, especially as Brewer can't even do what little he contributes properly!
It would be better if Edd went with him to assess the potential purchases; that way he could reject some of the disasters that Brewer buys.

I like F&L too, although I am willing to bet that Richard Rawlings is probably intensely annoying in person (and to work for)! The spin-off, however, I find annoying.

Oddly enough, I thought the technical content (albeit at a very basic level) had increased in the last season of WD, with Ant doing lots of "whiteboard" explanations on how bits of car work..
