read in the paper yesterday that the great egg race is to return first as a pilot show this month on BBC2 with Richard hammond.

who remembers the orginal series with prof. heinz wolff.

Me...I do...


shine a light.. that must have been 20 years ago

gulp.......

It was one of my must watch programs, them were the days, eh? Only three channels to choose from. I remember Channel Four starting, with Carol Vordermann in a cardie.

Carol Vordermann in a cardie. Mmmmm!

Can you imagine the Hampster doing it, it will end up like Brainiack, Urggggg! The mans a Trog. I appologise to all those who think he is the dogs whatsits, can't stand him. atb Ray.

The egg race was awesome. I must have been no more than 14 when it was last on - 20 years ago + VAT id guess. I could blame that prog for my career choice in engineering.

Hammond is entertaing and Ok to ap point but i know what you mean - verging on irritating. Hope he doesnt make a hash out of it. Wonder if they keep the signature tune - cult classic!

I loved the great egg race, one of my favourite ever programs. Also used to like a series called "Now get out of that".

Great Stuff, I get on with building the locost egg mobile!

Haven't got a clue what you're going on about, but I did meet prof Heinz Wolff once and he was madder than a big box of frogs!
