Top Gear

[HTL]

How glad am I that it is back on! What a show to start the new series. Any other Top Gear nuts on here?

 

[brendy]

Very good, liked the whole show. The police challenge was funny with clarkson not balancing the wheel weapons, did you see the steering wheel shake!!

I missed it- I was watching the football (which has been hugely disappointing) but I am a top gear fan so I take it it's worth watching the repeat? I would have turned over if I remembered.

Hunter, it will be on i-player on the beeb web site in the next couple of days. I think it is the best thing on telly and one of the few things that makes me laugh out loud (the other being Birdieman being so unPC).

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiver I missed it gutted. I am a massive top gear fan how could i miss it. O yeah I'm watchin the footy! daim!

 

[madandra]

thanks for the link Mad. I have virgin plus though so I can watch it later on tonight using the 'catch up tv' function. Cheers anyway- I will make sure I watch it. Is birdieman's political correctness similar to Mr Clarkson's?

Cut from the same cloth by the 5 year old chinese kid working in a sweat shop for 13p a month.

Its the best show on the telly - Have it recorded and looking forward to it.

 

[Kaizer_Soze]

Quality show last night, great to have it back on our screens.

I have sky+'d it. I don't think it was very well advertised, I only saw it in the schedules by accident. It is normally repeated. I have to agree with opinion on here, it IS one of the most entertaining shows on the box. They all complement each other brilliantly. BTW I was at the airfield yesterday where Hammond nearly bought it.

 

[Nico]

Watched the footy through sleepy eyes and also sky+'d it. Just about to watch it now,cant wait!

Best programme on the telly - apart for the golf of course!!

Three middle aged men going through a (scripted) mid life crisis, that really should know better.

But I can't help but love it.

I'm sure that there is a part of all of us that would wish to do half the stuff they get upto on the show.

The fuel economy test was just so twisted, but clever, (in a childish kinda way!). Amuzing nether the less.

Get the 3 of them commentating on the golf, they hate it so I reckon it could be quite funny. Talking of which I've heard a rumour that Hamster is to do the F1 when it comes back to the Beeb.

 

[theeaglehunter]

I watched the program earlier and absolutely cracked up. Almost as much as during the episode when they went to play golf. I take it you all saw that one? Can you imagine that lot turning up at your course and seeing Clarkson empty someone's bag out on a green. The members looked less than impressed.

 

[madandra]

1.7 miles per gallon in the Ferrari !!!!!!!! Thats disgusting.


I fuelled up next to a guy in a Bentley Continental and he said it cast him £136 from the quarter tank mark and he does that 5 times a month ... JEEEEZ US !!!!!

 

[Midnight]

very funny program , the Police vehs were spot on.

Looking forward to the next one.

 

[haplesshacker]

The Fiat was (apart from the daft Bodicia wheels), absolutly spot on. It looked great in the Italian police green. Just so ....... well....Italian.
