Richard Hammond's Big!

I've only seen 2 of these - the Super Galaxy C-5M & VW Wolfsburg but a clear picture is evident.

The problem is Richard Hammond.

He lacks the insight & depth to offer anything of interest.

Schoolboy enthusiasm never compensates for lack of knowledge.

When I compare his efforts to what James May has done in similar situations like say Toy Stories you can see he's a rather mediocre presenter. Clarkson would also do it better.

Presenters like Guy Martin, Ben Fogle & Freddie Flintoff rarely make the grade.

I think the worst is Charlie Boorman.

Who would do this well?

I suggest Ant Anstead, Edd China, Jem Stansfield, Mark Miodownik perhaps even Jason Bradbury. Dick Strawbridge, though he's now pratting about with a French castle.

I just reduced my rating from 4 to 3.

I'm an engineer, and while I know how to make a phone (well, a small part of it anyway), I don't know how to make a stadium, a dam or a building. I thought this was very interesting and well presented.

Firstly I agree with others that Richard does not have the knowledge to present a program like this. Secondly do we really need the constant back ground music which sometimes drowns out the speech and the natural back ground sounds.

Every episode is fantastic, but you can skip episode 9. Episode 9 it literally a recap of the previous 8 episodes.

This has been a really nice watch, Hammond is like a big kid... Well little ;D
