Hmmm I'll definately check it out. Shame it's on Ch9, I predict there will be a lot of potential Holden-viewing time wasted by excess advertising, such is life...

Hi Guys.

The impression that I got was that this show was a story on the design, building & testing of the new VE Commodore, not Holden history.

The VE Design through to construction follows this at 5:00pm. It's probably the Greg Norman History at 4:00pm.

EDIT: It is the VE Show at 4:00pm. It is "Billion Dollar Baby: The Story of the New Holden Commodore".

Well that wasn't what I expected. Not entirely bad, but that stupid bitch reporter told me I'd be seeing some old footage of Lang Lang testing ground 'after the break'. Came back and found more and more brand new footage.

A little dissapointing, but I did find the VE story fascinating at some points. Would have been more impressive if it wasn't made for ten year olds, but I loved some of the footage.

They put the full front end, rear end, tailshaft, engine, box and exhaust system in at once, now that was cool!

I vid'd it, but for some stupid reason thought it was on 10, so have 15 minutes of football, before I learnt the errors of my way. Will sit down and watch the 45 mins tonight.
