Model Military International 38 - 06 2009


James May, aka Captain Slow, found himself the perfect British vehicle when he spent the day filming the museum's new television commercial. The presenter looked perfectly at home in the turret of a Chieftain tank as he explored the 200 military vehicles on display at the Bovington-based museum. The Tank Museum holds many fond childhood memories for the TV star; just one of the reasons he so generously donated his time to this worthy cause. "I've been coming to The Tank Museum since I was about five. Back then it was just a load of tanks parked outside and all a bit rusty" remarked James. "It's changed a lot since then. It has become quite posh for a tank museum. It's refurbished, new building, more tanks, more interactive stuff, and as a fan of old machines I think it's really good, well worth a look."
