Lee, ya gotta get a VPN. I watch all British shows (and a few American ones) that require being in the country of origin to watch online... makes life as an expat much easier.

Well Birdy, you didn't miss much. The programme was about how things are made from steel and chrome rather than how the R3. Having said that it grabbed my attention for the 10 mins when the subject moved onto making the worlds biggest motorbike from a lump of steel. The programme then moved onto toilet roll - I went to repair the relationship with my youngest (7) daughter (we had a fight over the remote control as Hannah Montana was calling her all the way from Disney). Complementary about the R3 and the Steel City in the Republic of South Yorkshire. Birthplace of stainless steel, Birdy and many other fine things besides.

BTW I have visited Magna, Rotherham (interactive steelworks museum Link ) surpisingly good.

Well thats the trouble with the 'How do they do it' series. They are all interesting but only skim the top of each subject. My life revolves around steel so the first part was just as interesting to me.
Always good to see a shot of the Triumph factory frontage - looks so impresive.
