Well I've sat thru all the Four Rooms that have been on so far Jem, hoping to catch the episode you're on, but not seen hide nor hair yet of anyone I recognise

Except last week - surprised to see former metal DJ and tv presenter 'Krusher' on there trying to sell a wobbly wine glass made by arty-farty gaylords Gilbert & George :shock:

Those ejector seats probably make good ejector seats, but I dont think I'd want to use them as any other kind of seat :? :shock:

I think a pair of old ejector seats would look damn cool in a race car. 8-)

Might have to shorten them to fit of course. :oops:

Decided to do a little bit of investigation into the jet engine to establish whether or not it actually did come out of a Vulcan.

Managed to track down a guy who is an authority on Rolls Royce 'Artouste' engines. He confirmed categorically that it DIDN'T come out of a Vulcan but DID come out of Victor B1 of which 86 were produced.
