A new irregular series bought to you from the makers of “Boring Press Release Quotes Of Our Time”. Anyway, I find this one for Drive<\/strong> is a bit weird, as if little thought has gone into what layering images of celebrities looking straight ahead but from the side on top of each other looks like.<\/p>\n

\"drive\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyway I’m quietly hopeful that the show will be entertaining in so much as I think celebrity motor racing has some untapped potential, and whatsmore like Strictly Come Dancing<\/strong> it’s a “fun” skill, the sort of thing you might get some decent celebrities to have a go at. Our celebrites will be taking on various driving challenges in various different vehicles (banger racing in episode one<\/a>, Tuesday 5th April, 9pm, ITV) with the aim of avoiding the night race\u00a0and elimination.<\/p>\n

Celebrity Real Life Elimination Mario Kart<\/em> would likely be a ratings sensation, my fear here is that this\u00a0might be overformatted where instead of challenges it should probably concentrate more on big free-for-all races. From the description it sounds a bit more like Eternal Glory But In A Car<\/strong>, something that regrettably we got bored of. Perhaps the Night Test will be one lap round the Top Gear<\/em> track, but with the green light going on at any point between two seconds and two hours. I hope they’ve got the balance right, it’s certainly quite a fun celebrity line-up.<\/p>\n

In other news Dermot’s back on The X Factor<\/strong>, evidently having got bored of the other opportunities offered<\/a> since quitting and definitely not being politely shoved out the door last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
