A fantastic must see. The programs really did entertain, while drawing you into the unfolding drama.
I'd been following the Teams posts on FB earlier in the year, but you just don't appreciate the problems they faced untill you see the video footage. The frustration shown in the final episode felt so real and not sensoring the language really got over not just the frustrations, but the determination of the crew to want to finish.
Has it really been two years since I met some of the crew in Wales as they got trained (by the Stig), gained experience and did enough events to get their international licenses.
A marshals view of the R2R team gaining experience - 8th September 2012, Radnor Forest, WalesCracking TV - watch it.
