Drunk-in-charge of a Motorshow? - colin-e
I was at the Eastbourne Motorshow at the weekend (no, it wasn't all Zimmers and Hondas!).

James May was hosting - and doing a damn good job.

He did a bit of "hosting", then went off for a break before the next presentation. When he returned, he admitted to having had a "couple of pints".

James wasn't weaving dangerously around the arena, but he did seem a little more amorous towards the "car show totty".

This got me thinking....what is the legal blood-alcohol limit for a motorshow host, and can one be charged with being "drunk-in-charge of a motorshow"?

Hi Colin

I was there too (on the Sunday). He did a good job, but he didn't seem to have a bad thing to say about any of the cars.........

That could have been the alcohol talking! (or the fact that his fee is paid for by the car dealers!)
