just amazing!" It was also nominated for an International award! Cash Cab gets unsuspecting members of the public to enter John’s cab and give their destination, only to find themselves with flashing lights and a driver who says: "You’re on Cash Cab!" Then by answering a series of general knowledge questions before arriving at that destination, they can win thousands of pounds! Viewers also seem to like the fact that once they miss out on three questions, they have to get out and walk the rest of the way! John has hosted the show since it’s debut and for an afternoon quiz, it has been remarkably successful pulling in around 1million viewers regularly – a figure usually bettered only by sporting events. John, whose earnings have no doubt increased since stardom arrived, still drives for DaC. "Old habits die hard," he told us! Congratulations from everyone, John… |

In recent issues, Jonathen has looked at a

Drop your precious baby into reverse and the 3.5-inch LCD display automatically extends from the rear-view mirror, showing live video from the minicam mounted on the car’s rear. Put your car into first gear and the display retracts out of sight, leaving you free to drive away from the spot formerly known as blind. More info at: HERE Jonathen Winterburn |
