I know what it is, this car, 523 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,880 but there's something a bit comfier than a plastic seat. 524 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:43,080 Paddy, describe to me how surprisingly comfortable 525 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,120 that car is. Cos from the outside, they look like they bounce around, 526 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:50,480 but they really don't, do they? No, it's so on point. 527 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:54,600 This is all the bells and whistles in here of an S-Class limo. 528 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,360 Can you change the subject please, lads, cos my back is in bits? 529 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,360 Paddy's looked a bit pimped up to me, but the G-Wagon really 530 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,840 is the real deal. It will do everything. 531 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,520 As for the Nomad, well, I mean, that is a statement car, 532 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,120 but right now I wouldn't swap either of those two for this. 533 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,000 I'm liking it more and more. 534 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,760 And this is a difficult position for me 535 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,480 cos I'm someone that doesn't like big SUVs. 536 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,080 But there's an honesty about this one. 537 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:31,120 It feels like it's built for a purpose, it's built to go 538 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:34,160 and do rugged things. And it's in weather like this, 539 00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,600 that I do feel some sympathy for SUV drivers 540 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,840 because I'm up high, I feel safe. 541 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,320 There is a lot to be said for it.

I am properly equipped. 896 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:52,640 Which, it was time to conclude, McGuinness wasn't. 897 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:55,080 Go on, G-Wagon. You've got it. 898 00:52:56,520 --> 00:53:00,280 Nothing stops this car, nothing. 899 00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:04,280 So, with the G-Wagon now being winched to safety by some 900 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:08,800 local forestry types... Lovely, bit of German engineering! 901 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,720 ..it's fair to say McGuinness's race was over. 902 00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:17,840 But my plucky Defender had got me back to the road, 903 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,960 and as we closed in on the lighthouse, the only question 904 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:25,120 now was - would Flintoff and his Nomad emerge in front... 905 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,400 There we go, we're off again. 906 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,280 ..or behind? 907 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:33,400 Lighthouse, on the B with a lot of numbers. 908 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,600 Light bulb's intact, I've got the key. 909 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,120 Am I going to be first? 910 00:53:41,240 --> 00:53:43,160 Oh! 911 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:44,520 There's the lighthouse. 912 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:46,800 Come on! 913 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:51,120 Oh, hang on, hang on. Oh, hang on. 914 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,600 No! 915 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:55,640 Oh, Andrew! 916 00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:58,440 No! 917 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,640 He can't get past me. 918 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,240 You all right, Chris? You cannot get past me. 919 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,440 It's still single track, my friend. 920 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,320 No! I just need a little bit more. 921 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,000 I'm loving this! 922 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:20,920 And he's trying it. Oh! 923 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:25,000 He's trying it! There's a fence there. 924 00:54:26,240 --> 00:54:28,040 This was it, then. 925 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:32,000 With the road snaking its final few yards to the coast, 926 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,400 our Highland adventure was at an end. 927 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:39,960 If it goes two lanes, this will become the widest Defender ever. 928 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:46,120 And as the Ardnamurchan Lighthouse rounded into view, 929 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,720 the car in front was the Defender. 930 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,920 What are the chances that there's a red G-Wagon ahead of both of us? 931 00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:58,040 Not a chance. Not a chance. 932 00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:01,640 It's a victory. 933 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:05,520 Oh! 934 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,800 But there was of course one more job left to do. 935 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,160 Do you want me to open it? Yes, please, Andrew. 936 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,920 The lighthouse needed its new bulb, 937 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:18,440 and that meant lugging all 19 kilos of it up to the top. 938 00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,760 It's never-ending! It's like a Paddy McGuinness joke. 939 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,960 I think the Defender might have done us here, Larry. 940 00:55:30,240 --> 00:55:33,200 That could have all been yours, Larry. Never mind. 941 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,640 And once McGuinness and his new friend finally joined us... 942 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:40,960 Not far now, Larry. 943 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:45,440 ..the only question was - had my bulb survived the trip? 944 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,560 I declare this lighthouse operational. 945 00:55:50,560 --> 00:55:52,400 Yes! 946 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,040 Oh. You have as well. Oh! 947 00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:57,480 Oh! Oh! Oh, no! What have you done? 948 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:02,440 Hey, don't worry! Larry's here. I've brought Larry up, lads. 949 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:05,280 You must have cracked it in transit. 950 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,520 It's gone. It's gone bang, lads. 951 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:10,880 Ohhhh! 952 00:56:12,240 --> 00:56:14,520 They're meant to flash. No, they spin, don't they? 953 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:17,720 No, they flash. They flash now. There you go, you see. 954 00:56:17,720 --> 00:56:20,600 That's his nautical knowledge. Do they not go round like that? No. 955 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:24,200 Paddy, it's 2021. Do they not do that any more in lighthouses? 956 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:25,960 What do you think this is? Moby Dick? 957 00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:41,080 Come on! Fair play, Chris. Congratulations. 958 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,560 But you've got to admit you're lucky. I nearly had you there. 959 00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:45,680 I had you totally covered the whole way. 960 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:49,800 No chance, I was just behind you. I was catching you up in the Nomad. Look at it. You were still second. 961 00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:52,080 Lads, lads, lads, we were all winners, really. 962 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:53,600 We all made it to the lighthouse 963 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:55,960 and we avoided an international shipping incident. 964 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,280 Well, not really, you came last. You got stuck in the mud, Pad. What? 965 00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,480 That third diff-lock came in very handy, didn't it? 966 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:04,160 I've got to be honest, if I'd have had six diff-locks, 967 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,360 it wouldn't have made any difference with them tyres. 968 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,280 What we can all agree on is that I won 969 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,520 and the Defender is the best off-roader here by miles. 970 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,200 We can't agree on that. It's this every day of the week. The Nomad. 971 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,600 What's wrong with you? Look at it. Enough, enough. Stop there. I won. 972 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:21,200 It's simple. OK? And that's all we've got time for tonight. 973 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,960 It is, but we'll be back next week with the last show of the series. 974 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:26,920 Where has that time gone? Already? Yeah! 975 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:28,760 But don't worry because it's a belter. 976 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:33,360 We finally solve the male midlife crisis. See you then! Good night!
