This year marks a very special milestone for Tim Watson, better known to fans as Our Tim, as he celebrates 15 years of presenting live shows across the UK.



Since first stepping on stage in 2011, Tim has become a fixture of the motoring and specialist vehicle world, hosting more than 200 events, commentating on over 140,000 vehicles from cars to bikes, trucks and even tanks, thrilling a live audience of more than 750,000 people.


Over the years, he’s even survived being cut out of 48 vehicles in live action arenas.


To mark this milestone, Tim will be wearing special commemorative shirts at every event throughout 2026. The shirts celebrate the journey so far with the back featuring a full list of all 2026 events, while the front proudly displays the logos of two charities close to Tim’s heart.


Tim has supported Mental Health Motorbike since 2024 and proudly wears the Mental Health First Aider Helmet logo for a third successive year. Joining them in 2026 is Sporting Bears Motor Club, where he was appointed their first ever ambassador in 2025. Sporting Bears have raised more than £4 million for children’s charities through their dream rides, and Tim is thrilled to continue supporting their work.



Enthusiasts won’t just have to attend the events in person to experience the action. Tim will be capturing and sharing every show on his YouTube channel, with each event video sponsored by Howden Classic Insurance Services.


Every video is filmed, edited, and published on the same day, entirely by Tim himself as a solo creator, giving fans an authentic, behind-the-scenes perspective of each show.
