No fame I'm sorry to say but then again I'm not after fame and fortune; I'll just take the fortune if I had the choice  ;D

That was filmed back in September 2005 at Kemble Airfield near Cirencester in the Cotswolds. Spent best part of a day driving around the airfield filming what in the end was just 1 minute 18 seconds in the show  :o  The clip is available on YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82OV20KDSPQ (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82OV20KDSPQ). Unfortunately they got their facts very wrong and even though I gave them details about the Gamma, Penny Mallory (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penny_Mallory) describes the car as "a two-seater coupe like an Italian Bentley"  :-\. It's not a two-seater and it's certainly nothing like a Bentley. In fact I think it's offensive to Bentleys to describe them like a Gamma  :-[
