    "One of our watchwords, a phrase that permeates our productions, is 'ambitious but crap'," says Hammond, chuckling to himself. "I love setting off on projects like trying to make a car and cross the English Channel." Hammond's Triumph Herald with a sail sunk in minutes and a coastguard called them irresponsible. "I love setting off with deliberately childish and innocent and wide-eyed hopefulness, and I think people enjoy that."

    There are so many things wrong with this paragraph... nice research Guardian!

    That's good, doesn't make the research any less poor!

    I can't bring myself to read the comments, Guardian readers (The ones who comment on articles anyway) are almost always a bunch of self-satisfied, snobby idiots

    Hey I take offence at that! Half the fun is reading the haters and posting to disagree with them.
