Driving School - Episode 2

Episode 2 of Driving School

[@bravo478bl]

Maureen worked tirelessly hard just to pay for her lessons, that's determination for you and she is one determined woman. Bless you Maureen.

[@matthewmiller8048]

I passed my test 96. Realise I'm getting old watching this.. Its great TV. The dog, Elvis granddad, wedge haircuts.. Simpler times, how times change. No designer clothes, Audi or BMW, most people were happy with a fiesta

[@BobbyManford]

Pam the driving instructor is like somebody from a comedy sketch

[@og87]

This show felt so serious back when I was younger but now I honestly feel its a spin off of That Peter Kay thing or Phoenix Nights. The scene with Joans husband is pure satire.

[@ollie1984a]

I love the way the dog gets to sit in the front!

[@clarissamcpigeon7857]

Dog riding shotgun, silently judging all.

[@brendonmcmorrow3886]

The dog cracks me up. It really does look like it’s in control!

[@mattwebb6056]

5:38. Just a reminder of how quiet the roads were back then and you could actually find somewhere to park. 🤣

[@monkeysrightpaw]

There were enough roads and there were enough houses.

[@Andyscobie]

I know she was fond of the car, but I agree with Dave, that Lada was way too heavy for Maureen to learn in, plus I image her instructors' cars had power steering. When I initially attempted to learn to drive in my teens, the car I used for private practice had no power steering and was like driving a tank compared to my instructor's car. Plus, Maureen and Dave show that sometimes loved ones, though the mean well, are far from the best people to teach you to drive.

[@robertpetitt2821]

The dog knows more than what they do,lol.

[@collinslfc]

I love somebody who keeps trying and is determined to pass, but Maureen just isn't learning from her previous mistakes and failing a driving test eight times suggests that she will never be a safe driver. Even if she does later go on to pass her test; would she carry out all the observations if she was driving on her own? I doubt it.

[@Andyscobie]

I agree. Maureen was not learning from her mistakes, you would think that after failing at least 2 tests on gears and observation she would have moved to an automatic (which in later episodes turned out to be her salvation). I will say however that learning with her husband was not very productive. Fair enough she could only afford an hour lessons a week, however in my experience it is impossible feel comfortable and confident and take anything on board in such a hostile environment.

[@juleerowley9706]

Omg Maureen 😲 stop screaming at your husband...he's very brave to get in the car with you

[@normathomas8830]

just think Maureen was great hope she got her business up and running nice hard working lady

[@simicantstandyabits1324]

Maureen's driving instructor seems so nice.

[@sidbeckett5655]

It took her 20 seconds to open an envelope in the last episode, and only 10 seconds this week. That's a huge improvement in fine motor skills.

[@troyleedswhite]

That Joan should never be on the oad

[@jaine000]

Gives er a ug when I sees er innit ? I'm a fellow bristolian ... You've gotta love the accent ! Lol

Beth mc that’s hilarious

[@alistairholt]

I’m amazed Paul has ever managed to make a decision.

[@MonkeyHunch1]

WOAH WOAH!

[@sharonhopton5685]

Maureen and Dave, a couple of stars x

[@Sean-ce1hu]

Pam is like a Ricky Gervais character.

[@divineprovidence803]

It's like watching a comedy sketch. Maureen needs to use the mirrors properly and listsn to her husband.

[@jul30ie]

Driving School Episode 2 On Tuesday 17th June 1997 On BBC Wales On 1.

"Read my lips. No more...I aven't done it on the right before"

[@juleerowley9706]

We need updates on these lovely people????

[@loganroodt818]

Hope they're all still alive, driving safe and happy ❤. I was born 1995 and this show weirdly reminds me time is going to go really really fast 😢

[@tnewton1988]

If Paul/Pam was my driving instructor I’d fall asleep at the wheel! Wooden AF!

[@brendonmcmorrow3886]

I think I would have failed my theory test if my dad had played that awful organ music whilst I was revising.

[@Purplelemon5033]

The dog looks concerned do you know what your doing Joan lol

[@actionmayne3742]

23:14 his signal is a nazi salute lol

[@JamesCarmichael]

Maybe the nazi's ripped off the stop signal.

[@Thisistrulyoddtv_Mark]

When Maureen said I think we’ve done some damage Dave straight away I think you’ve done some damage an all making a point it ain’t we who’ve done the damage but you lol she was making out it was both their fault lol

[@GreenDani18]

She has a problem remembering to do two things at once, lol, not the sharpest tool in the box. I really felt sorry for her long-suffering husband; he;s a saint.

[@matthewmiller8048]

Just noticed a billboard promoting Tony Blair's new labour,if only we could go back..

[@halfbakedproductions7887]

Wonder what those workmen thought, when they saw a couple getting out of a crappy Lada and arguing with each other while being followed by cameras. Not something you see every day.

[@outoftownr3906]

Josh’s grandson in the front needs a haircut

[@stevekenilworth]

all of these issues with written test, yes i traveled a lot when younger so learned general stuff just travelling. not once did i read the theory book, just few vids of road signs and common questions that was it, got few wrong but it easy pass and more questions now and a hazard test so passed that first time, and my driving test was 55-58 min long basically an extended test what you normally get if you re sit your test but it was my first ever test but passed first time. i don't know if it how they did teaching back then but the roads are far more quite then than now

[@juleerowley9706]

Joan passed ???? 😢 omg I'm glad I didn't live near her....a liability on the road 😳

[@danshe3241]

I passed my test in that red fiesta with Pamela 😂

[@johngreen6375]

Your not the Dan in the program are you? I wonder if she still instructs?

[@brendonmcmorrow3886]

Pamela has surely achieved legendary status by now?

[@Thisistrulyoddtv_Mark]

I felt sorry for Maureen driving in her larder no powered steering heavy car to learn in then having lessons in Linda Clarks modern Peugeot with powered steering she needed something like that Peugeot

[@johngreen6375]

Those 106 limited editions were basic. The steering was light, but not power assisted. That was a “Key Largo” or “Key West” .

[@Thisistrulyoddtv_Mark]

@@johngreen6375 oh ok 👍🏻

[@leekorn3796]

Maureen is my queen ^^

[@liverush24]

Jake is awesome!

[@zainisdabomb]

how did she not see the wall in her mirror she was staring right at it, this is hilarious

[@3amgrl]

I'm surprised Danny passed after that other car beeped at him!

[@JakobMoscow]

That raggedy-ass bird! (no, not maureen, the actual bird)

[@sandhyayyuray5020]

I’m watching this for hw

[@liverush24]

"We've parked up, safely, with concentration." Dave says, smugly.

[@divineprovidence803]

Reversing in a bus or rigid 18 tonne is easy but try it in a articulated vehicle. Not so easy!

[@techtitanuk5609]

I remember those type houses

[@rajnirvan3336]

I remember emergency stops.

[@borisjohnson7553]

Think about it these people are probably in the 50s and they been driving for 30 odd years wow I bet they’re watching thinking how stupid am I

[@juleerowley9706]

Danny is probably married now with kids

[@simicantstandyabits1324]

Maybe he's dead.

[@mvashton]

I LISTENING!

[@chamber123100]

They both still look same

[@vibeuk2003]

Gosh cars in the 90s were awful weren't they? LOL

[@taz89ful]

they were better then ones nowadays that have electrics and shit in them that fail they didn't break down as much as new cars do now!!

[@louisgreenleaf235]

vibeuk2003 no not really some of them were brilliant like the escort cosworth but a lot were shite

[@clarissamcpigeon7857]

They were mostly complete crap unless you spent good money and got something Japanese, or high end German. This was filmed in 1997 and my dad had a very nice Honda Accord at that time. Cars have got much better over the years since... but also a lot more expensive to buy and maintain.

[@aspiknf]

90s cars were good, same with today's cars. Although, there was more style in the 90s cars, you could personalize more

[@sandhyayyuray5020]

Alberto no my dad has one of the latest cars and it nearly always breaks down all the time car then we’re stronger
