I​n this seminal piece of reality TV, a man in an oatmeal jumper takes to the road on a dull day in two of his own cars to settle an important debate. Or at least kick it off. This is the truth about modern motoring: no exotic location on the Med, just loneliness and uncertainty against a backdrop of portentous grey.

One of the cameras fell off the tracking car and was run over by a lorry, so apologies if it seems a bit short on action shots.
