Flame away.
did he punch the shit out of Clarkson like an alien that has just crashlanded? welcome to Earth!
Sorry, still having a bit of a 'crisis' over that Merc so hadn't noticed.
Who knew that Russell Crowe started his acting career in Neighbours!
Will who Now Margo i noticed her 🙂

Raises hand...
Now Margo i noticed her
Best you watch The Wolf of Wall Street. you'll notice a [b]lot[/b] more of Margo 8)
Very enjoyable SIARPC, I usually skip that bit. On par with cruise/diaz I thought.
He doesn't like to talk about it and doesn't like other people talking about it either.Who knew that Russell Crowe started his acting career in Neighbours
Damned if I'd do that
But would Meat Loaf?
Loud over enthusiastic rich American amongst a sea of polite under assuming English people.
Sorry, what's unusual?
I thought this thread was going to be about his green leather jacket and girlie scarf combo.
They were good sports actually and Will seemed a lot less up himself than I was expecting
I was at the filming last week and the interview was a fair bit longer than that. It was also a fair bit bluer....
More poignant; what was the bike in the woodshed that Hammond walks past at 52 mins into the program? A white Ht?
Actually enjoyed it.
Best TG in ages.
The Land Rover stunt was impressive as well.
If Hammond is such a big landie fan why does he talk such bollocks about them and their history.
Enjoyed that one..
Yeah, good episode. Saw that (actual) i8 in Harrogate on Saturday. Didn't hear a thing 😀
did he mention After Earth?
The only thing that will ever satiate that existential thirst is love. And I just remember that day I made the shift from wanting to be a winner to wanting to have the most powerful, deep and beautiful relationships I could possibly have."

That was actually an ok episode. Enjoyed the hooleying around in the AMG (lovely car, that). M3/i8 but was good. AMG and M3 perhaps deserved better scenery than the track though. Even Hammond's (you know, he's not even...nah) bit on the Land Rover wasn't the worst thing ever - even though it was the weakest bit of the show.
Don't know what was up with the SIARPC - I thought they both seemed up for it and game for a laugh.
Apart from Clarkson's usual trolling (yes Jeremy you massive cock, we heard them all) hand wringers and THE HIPSTER BEARD in the audience, it was a good effort.
I and many others are imploding.Flame away.
Why?
It wasn't a bad episode, I missed the AMG.
Will Smith is the lamest of lame actor/entertainers, I don't doubt he's a nice guy but as far as worthwhile/artistic output goes he sucks the boaby.
As for Clarkson rating Wolf on Wall St as a great film,....IMO it's Scorsese's worst.

This is just Jezza's attempt at trying to charm the pants off the pretty female guest IMO.
he sucks the boaby.
What does that even mean?
And if you think that JC means EVERYTHING that is aired on TG, then you are naive, but you don't, do you and you aren't, are you?
Poor effort by your standards Al, I expect better 😉
In fairness, The Wolf of Wall Street is the apex of intellectualism for the crowd in the Top Gear warehouse. 🙂
Al, I think you're exaggerating Will Smith's lameness there to be fair.
Anyone notice the sign on the side of the track about Ricardo on The Stig's lap?

Certainly a H/T, very dropped top-tube, couldn't pick out any logo, despite freezing it and going slo-mo.
Really enjoyed the episode, plenty of car stuff, the Merc; well, I'm glad I was watching alone in a darkened room, that's a hell of a car, and the noise! Oh, the noise!
Very impressed with the Beemers, too, to my complete surprise, and I enjoyed Margo and Will as well.
And the Landy on the dam? Bugger that for a game of soldiers!
Best one for ages.
Sitting in an old landrover hanging on a wire 200' up would make me poop my pants.
Good fun episode. Still got last weeks to watch on the train. Looking forward to when they really get the i8 correct. Mercedes looked like a kid trying to draw a cross between a 911 and an E type and get the best bits of neither.
Comfortable Sunday night cliches - ideal
After Amber Herd he's the only star in the car that I watched. His recent films have been poo but for BadBoys alone I salute you Sir! 😀
Whoa Tea Leoni FFS
Kryton57 - MemberHere are two things that stand out for me about BadBoys. The first, the opening sequence in bad boys one Wills Porsche rolling up. The second:
She's from Bad Boys 2 is she not?
Anyway, I enjoyed that episode - it had cars in it. I wonder did the people who found last weeks episode a laugh riot find that this weeks episode was ruined by features about cars?
Anyone else think Will Smith was stoned, his eyes were all red and they kept watering, plus he was acting a bit weird I thought, sorta not quite relaxed.
Jet lag?
Hope they didn't ruin the Land Rover too much with the extra engine added. BMW i8 real world mpg figures disturbing. Did it not come out a few years back that a BM 1 Series diesel 1.6 was WAY more economical than a Toyota Prius??. Hybrid gubbins and big batteries etc,dragging Prius down?... Good show though.
cliffyc - MemberHope they didn't ruin the Land Rover too much with the extra engine added. BMW i8 real world mpg figures disturbing.
Are you really surprised though? That Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV quoted to deliver 158 mpg actually delivers 48-50 mpg.
Landrover stunt was on the Claerwen Dam in the Elan Valley. An outstanding area for mountain bike rides.
Speshpaul - MemberIf Hammond is such a big landie fan why does he talk such bollocks about them and their history.
Lots of fans talk pish about the object of their obsession. Not all fans are anoraks.
@jimjam,good call!,they do put "under/in laboratory conditions" on the blurb!! 😕

I know JC doesn't mean stuff, it just irritates me that he comes out with stuff to try look clever/funny, much of it will be taken on board by the masses and some of it responsible for cyclist injuries/deaths
not a bad episode, plenty of actual content this week rather than spouted drivel.
prefer the previous version of the Merc SLS but then I love gullwing Mercs - the new one looks like it's mated with a 911 and produced an effeminate offspring.
I liked seeing the BMW i8 - lovely looking car, it would be interesting to see how much of the crap Clarkson was spouting was actually true.
the whole repeated premise that the Landie piece paid tribute to the legendary Defender was rubbish though. it was nothing about the Defender in any of its past guises and was all about a big f-off winch and its separate engine in the back - they could have done that with a Vauxhall Corsa.
