The legendary trucks and truckers are in the thick of it facing one of their busiest times of year as they become Santa’s helpers. Battling through winter conditions ensuring stores up and down the country get their supply of Christmas trees, salt gets delivered to the councils and supermarket shelves stay stocked with festive fare. It’s a tough job: can the men and women behind the wheels of those famous green and red trucks pull it off?

At some part of the programmes, they always make me smile. People doing a job with a sense of humour. Can't be all bad.

herbert johnston This series is a real insight ... When a Soldier is ready to leave the Army without a qualification to his name and no hope of finding a job what should we do? Oh I know, put him through his HGV test & stick him in another green uniform then let him behind the wheel of a truck ON MINIMUM WAGES and call him a Stobart Drver . . . Great, Not!!!!!!

So whats the problem? I drive a truck 5/6 days a week. The (problem) jobs they experience are only the norm for the transport industry. wish I had some of their woes, I would be happy. What a set of softies.

my husband works bloody hard for es,i dont see him for 3-4 weeks at a time.he aint no lazy sod,takes pride in his work,and when there has been a problem with any thing home related es have been very good in accomadating him. although i have to say it would be a good idea if the planners who plan these drivers where to swap roles because some of the time scales they give to the drivers are impossible to achieve,so in turn they are not able to deliver when they are suppose to.so these guys need to get real.

Eddie stobart may take a lot of work on but they dont do all the deliverys, i worked for a small haulage firm and i collected from eddie stobarts depot in crick atleast 3 times a week to do deliverys they couldn't do as they had taken on to much work and us being a small haulage company would be a little cheaper so eddie would get paid loads for the deliver they never even done and we get no thanks from eddie stobart at all, they take all the credit for it, makes you wish the goverment would limit the amount of trucks eddie stobart as on the roads and give the smaller companys time to build up to something bigger and maybe the economy a get a little better!!!!

This should be on the Fantasy Channel or Disney time. A real documentary would show a disgruntled workforce facing a draconian management. Justice for all Stobart Drivers who on a daily basis face a culture of management bullying and are brow beaten into submission
