i saw the one where he moved the factory!! unbelievable!!! What makes it even more interesting that its proper fag packet engineering and winging things, rather than all the b*****t years of planning and permissions!! I loved the fact that he hadn't got permission to cross the train tracks until the building was sitting next to the track with a train approaching!! How could the authorities say no when its at that stage!!

There was a series about this on discovery ages ago, one firm of building movers had to drive 3 houses up a beach while the tide was coming in, they were getting bogged down and travellign at about 2mph the entire way!!!
