Crash n' Splash.

Britannica Sport, £10.99.
In as much as it is produced by Britannica Sport and lasts for around 50 minutes, this is similar to British Grand Prix Greats. It differs from the former, however, in that it is terminally dull.

Surely the market for this sort of thing has reached saturation point? Even the better-produced ‘calamity’ tapes — and this curious blend of motorised and water skiing mishaps is definitely not one of them — are becoming a little tiresome. SA

Editor-at-large

Intrigued by cars almost from birth, Simon was still at school when he persuaded a local newspaper editor that he really, really needed to run race reports from Oulton Park, Aintree and elsewhere. He has since followed the sport all over the planet and edited several titles, including Motoring News, Autocourse and this one (August 1991-October 1996).
