Oh Boris, give it another chance!
I thought it was really quite funny. I was in stitches at Paul O'Grady (Lily Savage) weaving along the country road - alternating between the white line in the middle of the road and mounting the verge!!
Gareth was really sweet - his face when he was sat alongside Damon Hill in a Ferrari on the test track was an absolute picture. A lad in seventh heaven!! He's not making a bad job of the driving either himself.
Jade was hysterical.
Her instructor must have the patience of a saint.
Looking forward to the next installment, which I think will probably concentrate more on the other three 'learners'.
Also found this article on Ananova about Jade's escapades:
Quote:
Jade Goody almost mowed down a cameraman filming her driving lesson for Celebrity Driving School. She hit the accelerator instead of the brake, making BBC cameraman Jeremy Bishop and his director leap into bushes. And the former Big Brother star thought she could drive instantly after passing her theory test on the third attempt.
Jade, Gareth Gates, Nadia Sawalha, Natalie Cassidy, Simon Day and Lily Savage star Paul O'Grady will be seen over two weeks on BBC1 for Comic Relief. They learn their fate on Red Nose Day, March 14.
Instructor Rickie Wellbourn Davies told The Sun: "I've been a driving instructor for 26 years and I've had some scary moments - but Jade took the biscuit. She'd bought a Mercedes and thought she could jump in. She was gutted when I said she still had to take the actual test."
