We will be asking viewers from across the country to take part in the biggest urban fox census ever attempted. We’ll find out if our cities are being over-run by foxes.

Mark Evans is back in his workshop to restore a 1973 MGB Roadster back to Showroom in condition in this episode of the popular Discovery Real Time TV series. It's one of the last chrome-bumpered cars ever built, and Mark intends to turn it into a unique collector's item. Follow the world's best-loved amateur mechanic as he strips the MG down to every last nut and bolt, and painstakingly rebuilds it from the ground up.

This is a fascinating and detailed insight into the engineering, design and restoration of one of the world's most popular and well-known sports cars, and is a fantastic reference tool for existing or would-be MGB restorers.
