Watched them all. The first one was superb when he built an airfix spitfire on a scale of 1:1 with the help of a group of schoolchildren and students. Great program which really demonstrates how modern technology is eroding basic 'hands on' skills. Well done, James May. Makes a welcome a change from TV tat shows like the X-Factor and Big Brother.
