Episode 1

The opening episode features 102-year-old John Errol Manners, from rural Wiltshire. A Royal Navy veteran who cheated death three times in the war, who is quite relaxed about his date with destiny even if he admits he likes to drive on the other side of the road because he claims he can see oncoming traffic better. In Wales, the familiar face of centenarian Jock Stares travels around the Valleys on his trusty scooter. He celebrates his 101st birthday by taking a speed boat out with his son before taking a motorcycle assessment. In the meantime, 93-year-old Jack Hearn makes it clear that he has no intention of failing his assessment. An international judo grand master, Jack can still throw a man over his shoulder and makes it clear he's not going to let a driving examiner spoil his day. By the end of the programme, the elderly drivers all face the steely gaze of a driving examiner and answer the ultimate question – is it time to hand in the keys for good?
