When he did it himself it was a bad enough programme.

Dear God, No.

Think of it as an opportunity, a Celebrity Cull, if you will. It's a Wall of Death after all.

Katie Hopkins

Piers Morgan
Jeremy Hunt
Michael Gove
The Kardashians
Donald Trump

etc etc

Thank God he turned down Top Gear to bring us such quality entertainment.

Presumably this will be the equivalent to real ice dancing or ski jumping as those celeb toss fests. More opportunity for celeb death though - it's even in the name. I just hope the producers have been professional in their choices and only approached the genunie A grade throbbers. Not cool to point and laugh at the death of a celeb accidentally knocked off but this is more of a darwinian experiment of volunteers so all good.

Imagine the scramble from STWers to watch if they get Ant Mcthingy on. Get him pissed first, should be quite entertaining. But probably not.

But hey ,it's like, for charity man,so all good.

I am sure even the most dim witted of celebs can ride fast enough to stay up on a wall.

Should I worry that my first thought was “I want a go”?

Guy Martin does need a good TV vehicle. I doubt this is it. It should clearly be a mtb programme. 😃

What next? Celebrity Chainsaw Juggling with Naga Munchetty? I wouldn't watch that either.

BTW, did anyone see the Sophie Raworth do this http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-43867390 ?

Impressive.

It’s not really dangerous though is it. It’s about have the balls to give it some to get up there, and getting off the wall.

once your up must be quite straight forward

I saw the wall of death that was on the original GM telly prog at a local fair, it was ace & I'd encourage anyone to see the show if given the opportunity! A fiver well spent!

It could be if given a little thought.

How about Katie Hopkins on a bike with Boudica style blades on the wheels up on the wall and up to speed then introduce Piers Morgan going in opposite direction equiped with a lance? Who'd not tune in for that!

it's a programme about motor bikes, we can at least give C4 some credit for getting a presenter who actually knows about them

I'll probably watch it on the assumption that I'm sitting down in front of the telly and there's nothing else on...

Although I hate the use of circus animals, this calls for another rider to be on the wall at the same time with a lion in the sidecar.... (as Eric Brown mentioned in his memoirs)

How about? Guy Martin goes wild bike packing across the world with various celebs! Scottish highlands, Peru, Morroco, Luton etc etc

How about Guy Martin talks passionately about machines? He is brilliant at that.

I would however watch it If he got Morgan and the Hopkins woman on for celebrity anvil catching.

There are some imaginative thoughts for off shoot programmes, has anyone tried pitching these to C4?

Some are definitely worthy of consideration 👍🤩

How about . . . Guy Martin teaches various really annoying celebrities*, who’ve never been on a motorbike before, to ride the IOM TT course blind-folded? In the middle of winter. Without closing the roads.

*or MPs

How fast do the pianos have to go to get up the wall?

It needs a Blazing Pit of Hell at the bottom for those who fail.

Win, win. More entertaining and we diminish the supply of "celebrities". 🙂
