Truckers

I had every intention of watching it but kept forgetting it was on,I have been watching Speechless on Channel 3 I think they where on at the same time I then forget the next day to iplayer it.

I watched the first episode and gave up.

I too watched the first episode, but found the story line poor, Stephen Tompkinson deserves better.

The trailers for this programme was far more interesting than the programme. I gave up halfway through the second episode.

I'm working with Truckers at the moment [the real ones, not the TV series] and the only bit of realism seems to be the various bottles that one of the characters produced out of his cab - as loos are few and far between!!!! Did you know, by the way, that lorry drivers are often refused access to toilets and hand-washing facilities at the companies they visit?

We stuck with it because of good write ups and found it really entertaining.

I think that anyone of us could take issue with how our various jobs are portrayed goldengirl. My DH couldn't watch 'My family' which I thought was hilarious (at least initially!) as it chimed with our family. I become really incensed when watching dramas involving trials as they never, ever, come across anyone from Witness Service!

I sometimes went with my husband when he was driving a truck in Europe goldengirl and I was amazed by the quality and quantity of truckstops over there. Clean loos and showers and very good restaurants. We don't seem to have these facilities in this country.
