    The Ferocious Mr Fixit

    Has onebody here from Hexus seen this brilliant TV program yet?

    Basically, what he does is goes and fixes peoples businesses and points out the problems, how to fix them and improve the business as a whole.

    I've seen 2 of these and I am now totally hooked. The last 1 I see last night was about a local business and the improvements he made were nothing short of good work

    He uses some fairly good techniques, and likes to think "outside the box", plus he strikes the fear of god into me just because of the way he looks ( He's huge )

    I dunno about you but he scares me

    Roll on Thursday @ 00:40 for my next fix

    Ahh...so could have done a below the belt comment about Scan then

    Seems like a good program, will have to stay up for it next time, same idea as the one where Gordon "#&@$%" Ramsey went round the failing restaurants and kicked them into shape.

    A word of warning - the language can be very blue at times, especially when he feels like he's talking to a brick wall or that the people around him are messing rather than taking him seriously.

    happened to catch it last night, was really good. It's not an original concept (i remember some business/management guy doing this in the late '80s on BBC2, part of The Money Program i think) but it was done very well.
