| Summary |
The Land Rover Series 1 is a seriously iconic British car. Born in 1948 it went on to conquer the world. Rugged, simple, but with only just 39,000 made, examples of this national treasure are hard to find.Philip Glenister (Gene Hunt - Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes) and car designer Ant Anstead get their hands on a 'Landie' that has been sitting in a barn for over 41 years - undriven and covered in cat poo.While Ant gets his hands dirty, Philip discovers why Brits love their Landies. He meets enthusiasts who gather in woodland to thrash their cars around and talks with the men who once relied on the Series 1 for survival in the desert.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Love Productions for Channel 4 |
