Did anyone else see Lost in Transmission on Thursday night on the History Channel?
Episode title: Drowned DeLorean. I think it's available on demand on sky now.

It aired some time ago - it was... okay. I guess. It did have a DeLorean in but the way they portrayed the frame seemed a bit odd (and at the end you can see a few tubs/chassis in bits).

Yeah I saw that one, they're all pretty much the same aren't they. At least one guy was really enthusiastic about the car!

That's one of my friends at DMCToday.com
Chad is a really good guy, he had a DeLorean that he sold about a year or so ago (I think it went over to France) because he really was tired of all the negative attention "Where's the Flux Capacitor? HAH HAR HAR". After all that, he ended up with another project car that he got too cheap to say no to. There is a lot to that episode that wasn't aired or mentioned. Basically the car you saw at the begining was not the car at the end, and I think there was a third car as well but I don't remember.
We did nominate Chad for the DMC Oscar for the awe struck acting performance at the end.

Another show - The Goldburgs (Sitcom). Season 1, episode 9 "Stop Arguing and Start Thanking". A Thanksgiving episode where the brother of the main character's father (yep, Uncle) turns up in a DeLorean - when he's usually broke. There's an accident and the "frame gets bent" so the doors won't close (interesting as the accident looks partly real). There's talk of DeLorean's 24 hour help line and then them going bust... it's quite funny, but also.. DeLorean.
