Well ain't that a bit like sandpaper on the tongue. Can one of you technical wizards come up with a way we folks elsewhere can view it? A UK based proxy ought to work. I've not used one myself (don't need it) but perhaps something here will help - https://free-proxy-list.net/uk-proxy.html

Very good - enjoyed that.
The ethos of Morgan came shinning through.
I wonder - if the owner of the "final car" viewed the programme? It was in Williams showroom.
Honesty means doing it right, even when no one is looking!

The narrator is annoying as is the recap after the ads like I have dementia. But the content was very good. I enjoyed it & then watched the Aston one afterwards. MMC really shined in comparison.

Your ISP will not see anything you are doing so good for banking etc especially away from home. If paranoid choose one based outside the Five Eyes countries so your activities are not going to be reported to Big Brother & one that keeps no logs. CyberGhost & Express VPN meet that check. TunnelBear in Canada used to offer 500Mb/ month for free but that offer does not seem to be available now.

Much better that either of the two previous programmes -- A car-nut friend of mine called me afterwards to say he now HAD to visit the factory!!

We really enjoyed the programme. I thought that it portrayed both the skills and the family atmosphere of the factory. (A real contrast to the robotic efficiency of both Bentley and Aston Martin). Watching it reaffirms many of the reasons I both bought and remain a proud owner of my humble 4/4.

It was very good. That's my highest accolade. Plus the fact that MrsW enjoyed it …….. and asked me if I recognised anybody.

I think that was the best program I have ever seen of the working of the factory. Well done.

I haven’t watched it yet, I saw the Bentley and Aston Martin programmes.
As for the impersonal build at Bentley and Aston, I reckon someone paying Aston and Bentley prices wouldn’t put up with some of the foibles I hear some of our lovely Morgan’s come out of the factory with.
I’ve never bought a new Morgan, I’ve owned six of them.
I never felt I could afford a new car and now they’re way out of my price range I never will.
I drove the AWSC plus 6 demo car and there’s no denying it’s fabulous, but imho it’s a bmw with a Morgan body.
I just enjoy my plus 8 whenever I can and can’t wait for lockdown to be eased.
Stay safe everyone
