I thought she was an ex rally driver ? And she says "just tell me, whats it like to drive on gravel?"
Someone at C4 please get rid of her she's not upto the job.

They could at least get a proper Bimbo for the job!

Cheers,

Maybe so - personally i've given up on her and any chance of her ever being a rally driver previously.

But the program is just so much better than it was at the start, got to congratulate the editor for improving it 10 fold.

Cant wait till tomorrows coverage for an hour.

Do the rest of you agree?

Have to edit just for Joe.... looks like i posted this without seeing her first... Go Joe. . Go Joe. . Go Joe. .

Exclamation

Penny Mallory CAN drive, shes had a fair few results in her time...

The reason she asked what its like to drive on gravel is to try and educate plebbers who havent a clue about competing and just sit in their armchairs watching the box - shes only doing her job..

..as for having a bimbo present the show - ummmm am I the only person who goes rallying for the rallying??

I know you are trying to look at it from a different perspective Richard, but she really is too plastic and dim. Look at the way she has to hold the wired mike to her face - why why why have her.


Must i repeat myself " ooooh how fast - isn't it great how fast it goes" on and on and on.

...she's bringing rallying to the masses - unfortunately..

...this is the kind of thing the Nigel Mansell mentality want - they drive a mondeo so they wanna see how well a Ford does...there are 8 Brits at the top of their sport so they'll cheer them on...from their armchairs


...like it or not, Penny is just doing what shes paid for better than anyone else...

The comment I originally made mean't that I actually find it hard to believe she was a Rally driver given the looks on her face and her apparent fear when sitting beside a proper driver. I agree with FreeT, the programme coverage this year is 100% better, but P Mallory is plastic and has not got the personality for the job.

Not after having seen her cra8 herself driving the PUG for that drivel program a few months back. She just about let go of the steering wheel when airborn.

Thank god someone agrees with me - i thought i was alone with these thought - cheers Yorkie.

I really can't comment too much on her quality of presentation, as I have been watching the Eurosport version mainly.
Richard, no need to go all serious like that, some of us are just trying to have a little bit of fun on a Friday night. Have a drink on me, you know want to

Cheers,

Nick.

P.S There's nothing wrong with mixing a littl T&A in with the rallying, is there?

When she went in the evo 7 with alistair she bricked it and he wasnt even going flat out. She is blody annoying and I hope they dump her from WRC and Driven as she is a waste of bloody space.

Richard - how do u know she does it better than anyone else when weve had no chance to see anyone do her job?

Ch4 have made great improvements in the program and amount of coverage the cars are getting, the last thing that is needed is a dum blonde bimbo taking up air time.

The blonde bimbos have there place and that is on Sky Sports.

There's a prize if anyone can translate what scooby_si meant.

What are the odds on richard burns not finishing in the top three this year (glad actually after that moan about 70degrees in cabin - aren't all drivers facing same conditions or did he get sent out in mid day?) - jacket on and gone to pub so don't waste your flame throwers till i'm back.

Not going here (as I know how hard it is to find a good presenter), but she does seem to be a bit more 'cup-holder' than 'diff-lock'...

Scoob v Evo on C5 Monday - just saw the trailer. Tiffany Dell is deciding!

I'm becoming more drawn to her for some reason. She'll never be in V B-H territory but there's something about an older woman.

Talking

Penny better looking than VBH, hahaha, no way. Penny's not attractive then she starts to talk and wham you hit the volume control doownn, and mighty quick

I watched Saturdays Rallying and it was appalling, truly bad. And hour of cringing torture. That suit in the studio, why do CH4 think we need him, he's like a wooden numpty, bring back Steve Rider, and the thing that really made me laugh was that report on 'descriptive' & 'numerical' pace notes. As Robby Head described the difference he talked over the in car footage, so while trying to hear the pace notes then him, you heard nothing at all, and were none the wiser as to the difference. I had to explain it all again to my laydee who was looking at me like, ‘did they just do that, and you want to watch this cr4p.’

Oh yeah some reporter was looking at the front end of Colin’s Focus and telling us whats so special about a gravel car. And when he came to the important bit as he described it (the dampers) he just said “and this thing here is the really important bit as its goes up and down over the bumps and stones” LOL HEHEHEHE he didn’t even tell all the numpty’s out there what it was called. Mmmmmm maybe he didn’t know. LOL

Thank you for Eurosport.
