As it is titled The caravan Show why do I expect them to show any Motorhomes and yet they state the program is aimed at both. My Wife and I rolled around the floor laughing at how you could spend so much time on the program putting stick on spots to show how to reverse. Let alone his Wife standing between the caravan and a reversing car. Honest we were rolling around laughing nothing else.

Out of 7 hours of original broadcast material, we're transmitted around 2 hours 30 minutes of about motorhomes, roughly in line with ownership statistics (500,000 caravans, less than 200,00 motorhomes in the UK, according to NCC guesstimates).

Should I have filmed a recent incident we saw when a motorhome owner reversed his still-hitched-up smart car into a lampstandard . . . ? People were trying to shout to him, but he had his window wound up!

Chris, Sorry I should have explained better we were laughing at how you described putting two dot's on the vehicles and then had Dot (I take that to be your Wife) assist with the reversing.So as you said in your filming the idea is you get the dot lined up with the other Dot what about the other Dot.? Wink
Perhaps the program would appear more balanced if episodes were not all on Caravans like Sundays.

The was also the issue about Dot getting between the dot on the caravan and the dot on the car. Poor Dot (and dots).

This Wednesday's premiere of edition 13 doesn't do much with either caravans or mhs, in fact - theres our rally, mh hitchlift (for scooters), our green bits, and other items.
