It's been a long wait but it returns tonight (Sunday) at 8.00 pm on Channel 5.  Programme of the week without a doubt.

Ah, dunno, it’ll clash with a Simon Reeve, so maybe a watch on plus 1...

Don’t know if this is just new to 5 but Darrell Ward died 2 years ago and there have been a couple of seasons on TV since then.

This year- there isn't much snow, and someone might hit a pothole!

Sadly History Channel pulled the plug on series 12, used to be my weekly TV run up to Christmas.

But.....but all you get is the massively over the top music building up to something HUGE..... Just to find a stone flicked up at the windscreen or something.

That and the continual loop of the truck passing over the ice as seen from a camera under the water.

My God it's so repetitive!

Yep, can't disagree with you Poopscoop although reckon that last night's episode has been the worst so far in terms of lack of content.

Hmm, just tried to catch up on Demand 5 and it seems even Channel 5 have lost interest after only 2 episodes:

Series 10 is taking a break and is likely to be back in the New Year.

The trucking season is getting shorter due to melting roads.  No fun either for the communities who depend on them, pity we don't hear about their day to day lives.

Anyway, boo.
