Big con Richard Hammond

Firstly I agree with others that Richard does not have the knowledge to present a program like this. Secondly do we really need the constant back ground music which sometimes drowns out the speech and the natural back ground sounds.

Good show when you are interested in technic. Realy love this kind of series on discovery+

I've only seen 2 of these - the Super Galaxy C-5M & VW Wolfsburg but a clear picture is evident.

The problem is Richard Hammond.

He lacks the insight & depth to offer anything of interest.

Schoolboy enthusiasm never compensates for lack of knowledge.

When I compare his efforts to what James May has done in similar situations like say Toy Stories you can see he's a rather mediocre presenter. Clarkson would also do it better.

Presenters like Guy Martin, Ben Fogle & Freddie Flintoff rarely make the grade.

I think the worst is Charlie Boorman.

Who would do this well?

I suggest Ant Anstead, Edd China, Jem Stansfield, Mark Miodownik perhaps even Jason Bradbury. Dick Strawbridge, though he's now pratting about with a French castle.

I just reduced my rating from 4 to 3.

Richard is a perfect host for this show. He lights up like a kid for Christmas. Decades of presenting made him comfortable on camera. Show features huge things in which he conquers fears and braves the uncomfortable zone. Very informative and passionate

Watch Richard Hammond and his film crew create a fine production and then hear it runied by the sound team who have this puerile notion that relentless heavy metal music is somehow connected with the heavy machinery being featured. The obvious result being that you can't hear anything that is being said.
