Jimmys Christmas food factory

Post by SvMinor »

Has anyone been watching jimmys christmas food factory today. It was on bbc1 before 3pm.
He is smoking his own bacon in a wardrobe in his barn, and if you looked behind him in the back of the barn, there is an old tatty looking blue morris minor.
I couldnt make out the registration no or if it was a saloon or traveller.

I was jus watching it by chance. Just thought someone might have recorded it and be able to get some info from the registration number.

I already posted about this ages ago, we decided it was a saloon but have no ideas on the reg no.

Heres the original thread http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=35785

Like I said in my previous post, I was just watching it by chance. Ie not something I usually watch. I thought it would be of interest to other members, some people can be so rude.

I thought it was good that it was still active and hoped that by its re incarnation and joining of the 2 posts we might find someone who had seen a reg number but if you want to take umbrage feel free :oops: seems text can be read in many ways which is why I NEVER text people on a phone unless for something like phone numbers or addresses as its too easy to be misunderstood causing no end of unescessary problems :cry:

I happened to spot it whilst someone else was watching TV.
The car is a saloon - which someone has beaten me to pointing out :D , and has been off the road since 1996.

When seeing it I figured it as a prop - as like the 'food factory' (which isn't a factory) it's all staged
