Sir David Jason is set to grace our screens once again. The legendary star is making a grand entrance onto the upcoming series of Car SOS, solidifying his status as the biggest star the show has ever had.
“David is going to be a special guest on the new series. It’s a big deal to have him on the show because he’s such a legend. Producers were thrilled when he agreed to take part,” revealed an insider close to the production. With a career spanning over six decades, Sir David Jason remains one of the nation’s most beloved figures. Furthermore, it should ensure a significant boost in viewership for Car SOS. The show is scheduled to air on National Geographic on March 7, promising an exciting restoration project for the veteran actor.
This exciting news comes on the heels of a temporary setback for Sir David’s show with Jay Blades, Touring Toolshed. The BBC2 series, where the unlikely duo travels to assist members of the public in honing their craft, was temporarily pulled off the air to accommodate football coverage. However, this hiccup isn’t slowing down Sir David Jason’s career momentum.
The insider shared, “David is one of the nation’s most popular stars, so getting him involved is bound to boost viewing figures.” It appears that Sir David’s charisma and expertise in television continue to captivate audiences across generations.
David Jason is set to be the show’s biggest-ever star appearance.
In a recent episode of Touring Toolshed, tensions ran high as Jay Blades walked off-screen following Sir David Jason’s playful jabs. The duo had enrolled in a barrel-making course, and despite a professional barrel maker stepping in to assist Jay, the end result only earned him a four out of ten. “The two of you can do one; I’ve had enough,” Jay declared before dramatically exiting the set. Sir David, however, diplomatically commented, “To be honest, he didn’t do too bad, did he?”
Sir David Jason’s enthusiasm for his new role in Car SOS is evident. “I think it’s really great to be able to encourage people of all ages to try their hands at different skills and past times,” he shared. The TV legend emphasised the importance of embracing various hobbies for mental health. The veteran actor also reflects on his own journey in building models and tinkering with mechanical objects.
As a teenager, Sir David Jason’s passion for mechanics began with purchasing a BSA B31 vintage motorbike. Despite a setback during its first outing, where the frame broke, he persevered and learned how to fix it. Over the years, he has restored motorbikes, penny arcade machines, and other items, showcasing his craftsmanship.
Sir David Jason’s enduring popularity and versatility shine through in an ever-evolving television landscape. His upcoming appearance on Car SOS makes it clear that the OFAH star’s career shows no sign of slowing down. So, mark your calendars for March 7, when Sir David takes the wheel in the latest Car SOS.
