Congratulations  on confirming what a lot of non caravanners think of us. A bunch of dork misfits. I couldn't believe what I was watching, moreover, how could the CC collude in this drivel.

They say no publicity is "bad", but after watching that I think the CC have found a way to break the "rule" well and truly.

That was a total embarassment.

And what idiot would attempt  to climb a very muddy grassy slope with a large caravan outfit.

Yes you guessed it none other than the Chairman of the CC!

I for one hope that the club does' not cover the cost of repairs to his van.

Well he has the video evidence to show the insurers it was an unavoidable accident.

How stupid to pitch caravans against motor vans in reversing competions, at the very least different types into varying classes but lets hope its a one off and lessons clearly learnt.

No cleaning of caravans on pitches , clearly this rule can be bent if the need arises.

Red face award ,  guess who will win this.

Utterly dire program. Anybody from the CC including the Chairman obviously needs to be completely embarrassed by any association with it.

 

A complete joke...

You can imagine what happened here. BBC producers think let's make an amusing program about those funny eccentric caravan types. Reel in the old folks that is the Caravan Club senior hierarchy, sell them the 'it's a lighthearted take on caravaners' all good fun and a bit of a jape. 

Result being the producers and BBC get what they wantEd all along; a bunch of caravaner types looking like total idiot's. 

All stereotypes accounted for. Good old BBC make us all look like the fools you think we are and all without Clarkson.

Also notice that no younger caravaners (under 55) were asked to participate.

 

what a load of old to tosh!

Think we'll NOT watch it after reading replies here.

Who's going to 'reconsider' their membership renewal now...???
