It wasn't offensive, just a very lame episode -as was the previous one.
From the Producer's blog on the TG website:
"I think show one is strong and show two, where the boys build their own electric car is, I would humbly say, a belter – a little bit of magic happens when they’re all together in one car, Renault Espace convertible stuff."
Top Gear was really good in the past, but they've obviously run out of ideas, which is only to be expected.
Resorting to 'nob gags' and using 'rude words' is a sign of desperation by the producers.
It may be clichéd, but they are now flogging a dead horse.
"Show three is, gasp, for people who like cars, because we want to explore this question of which car company made the greatest number of great cars – and we’ll be asking you for your thoughts very soon on that one. So yeah, show three is a bit geeky,
Apologising for featuring cars?? Heaven forbid that there might be something technical...
I thought it was in some way a car show? It's supposed to be "geeky".
"...and to balance that out we’ve got James’s Caravan Airship film, which will take an exalted place in the pantheon of Cutting Edge Cocking About"
To balance out a car show they'll be showing a 'hilarious' Caravan Airship film... I may be being unfair, James might come up with something good, as he does on his solo TV programmes(and the first series with Oz Clarke)
If I watch the next episode it will be on iPlayer, so that I can watch the "geeky" bit and ignore the rest.
