No idea what it's about but it's in the Mail on Sunday, apparently all will be revealed then.

Sounds intriguing...... ;D
I know for a fact that Doctor Who is currently filming the 50th anniversary special at the Tower of London.
Do we dare hope? Prolly not, but it's a nice thought!

Mary Berry?
Are they making a pie/cake/similar baked item I wonder?

The Mail on Sunday is launching a new magazine supplement on Sunday called The Event. Perhaps it's something to do with that? Chris Evans has already been writing for them for a couple of years; I don't suppose James could be coming onto the team? It would be lovely to see him writing a regular column again, though I suspect he wouldn't really be Mail Fail material!

Oh, dear. My love for James would suffer greatly if he has decided to become a columnist for them. :-(

Yes, I think it's a replica FAB1 that might be hired out and the proceeds to charity? Choice of driver, perhaps?? Or maybe auctioned off for charity? Intriguing, it is.

I really hope it's the Doctor Who special! Brian Cox has been on DW before.

I doubt they would get together for the Mail, and don't really see them doing Who either. But charity? Absolutely. We know Evans owns the plates and has gotten a pink Rolls from RR, and James has driven a huge pink FAB1 before (and likes Rolls). Don't know if the other two have any special connection to the FAB1, but I think they'd certainly be able to get the money rolling if they're auctioned off. (As drivers, I mean. ;D)

Found this on Twitter: Gary Barlow @gbarlowofficial 1h "So #THETHING is @fab1million starting this Thursday @achrisevans @profbriancox @mrjamesmay and myself driving across the country" They are trying to raise a million for breast cancer care. Keep an eye out for them.

Last one I promise! www.fab1million.co.uk/Who wouldn't want to be in that car! Anyone going? I won't be able to get to any of the venues. I live in Norfolk which is 2000 miles away from everywhere.

Is this going to be filmed and aired pseudo a Top Gear type show?

One of Chris Evans' earlier tweets about the photoshoot included
@mrjamesmay not looking himself but at least he's here !
I don't know whether that means that James was looking so terrible that his photos couldn't be used - or that he wasn't actually there, so was photoshopped into the picture of the four of them in the car with Barlow and Evans wearing pink feather boas!

It may be that James showed up for the shoot but was ill and looked terrible so they sent him home and photoshopped him into that pic. He did Tweet the night before that he didn't feel to hot after eating a large kebab.

No, I can't be at any of the venues although Bristol and Cribbs has poignant memories for me in recent times.
Sounds like an excellent venture.

A Thursday seems a strange day to do a trip like this. A weekend day would get more people able to go along to see it.
Howevs, it sounds like a good idea! I'd love to go and see, but the route is way too far away from me.

Apparently James and Gary Barlow are on ITV Daybreak tomorrow (Thursday) at some point from 6am. Perhaps understandably (for those who know me) I will be looking it up later on the ITV player (Sorry, James)

The above link won't work here. Does anyone know who the first driver is? I can't tell.
