Fly-on-the-wall documentary series following the daily events in the life of the former boxer and professional celebrity dandy Chris Eubank.

Well that was bloody hilarious last night.
Benn running with those bags screaming "C'mon then!!!" And then the two "gladiators" moving around protecting each others backs (for about 10 seconds).
I thought it all might be a bit fake and cheesy but it turned out to be one of the funniest programs I've seen in ages. What a couple of stars those guys.

Hi Kilburn....
That was brilliant last night. Eubank irrateted the snot out of me as per usual. I kind of hoped the armour would give way and Benn would slice the stupid SOB in two
Great show, wished I had recorded it....

I really enjoyed it, I thought C5 might make it cheesy and naff but it was a great piece of TV. It brought back some great memories of their rivalry. I still miss the big Nigel Benn fights, I had the pleasure atteding both Benn v Eubank fights, two nights and fighters I will never forget.
Although I really thought it was going to 'kick off' at one point. I'm glad Benn won, it really seemed to matter to him.

Couldn't agree anymore...
1 of the best 'Documentaries' I have seen...
Benn seemed really hyped it, but what do you expect, hes been all his career...
Great Watch Though...
PS: Remember the George Foreman Docementary on at 00:00 and 18:00 on the Biography Channel on September the 3rd
