No idea Jas :roll: I'm on freeview and got a tip off on the program. Maybe someone can let us all know? Most probably Youtube the week after :lol:

Here's a picture link from the show :D Looks like it might have been filmed at DMCH ?

I'm sure you have a way Jason ;) Nat Geo is on all the usual add ons. Then you'll get to see your favourite person and a mocked up "new" car :)

As I understand it, the premise of the show when is was "sold" to us was that they (the programme) would do their own mods to a car, then present the "official DeLorean company" with it to encourage them to bring some of these mods to "production". Obviously quite a lot of creative licence on both sides I think ;)
The finished product looks quite cool in my opinion - but... (other than the non-electronic parts of the custom interior) it is all mocked up. It is TV after all :)

Mostly filmed over here with a couple of cars, 1 in particular, but I have no doubt there will be a lot of USA stuff, and probably a few other cars used to flesh out the "story" :)

"built from the ground up"? errr no

Yes we were involved to source a car at very very short notice
A club member offered his but it didn't work out, so another club member stepped in with an auto that needed interior work.

It was a lot harder work than anticipated due to the ridiculously short timescales.
I have some photos which can upload if everyone doesn't mind there surprise being ruined
But they have already appeared on Facebook.
