So, new Top Gear this weekend. (Now with Spoilers)

Anyway, TG was much better when William Woollard presented it.

Staying away from the usual, I watched an old episode yesterday morning on Dave – 2005, the Isle of Man/Trevor Eve one.
It was good – they treated the audience as adults, it was fun and still pretty fresh.

I went off it and stopped watching regularly halfway through the next series, as it had started to become too much of a self parody.
I’d never been able to stand JC & and I quite enjoyed seeing how many golf bags Chris Goffey could fit into a Citroen.
🙂

I catch the odd episode now and again, if it sounds half decent, but I can’t believe how bad it’s become.

I apologise for the serious content of this post.

I can’t wait to hear some jokes about Hammond’s height.

Maybe they’ll joke about each others distended stomachs that makes them look like they are smuggling a Turkey roast under a table cloth? 😆

There’s a very nice Pinarello 🙂

Is it to early for the self proclaimed “Big hitters” to complain yet?

Well that explains why froomy did so well, his bike only weights 860g… 🙄

Hamster down
😆

Oooops!

Teetosugars the bighitters/attention seekers will be along shortly to tell you how much they are offended 🙂

How do the tax payers feel about paying for a £400 rear mech?

that looked like it probably really hurt!

No spare rear mech hanger?

Amateur

Not hopping the track, school boy error!

My long dead Granny god bless her could have advised on on crossing tram tracks. Mind her advice would be based on the experience of losing her teeth due to a tram track, cobble interface.

Nice squirrel.

Stig’s looking skinny – drug problem?

Common don’t you know that Top Gear pays for the whole of the BBC!

What’s the pin badge they’re all wearing?

Chilean flag?

That’ll be it – cheers 🙂

Yeah I’m sure Pinarello will charge them for it.

Erm, spoilers !!

😆

Erm, spoilers !!

Probably best not to read the TG thread then!

Top Gear? I thought this was the Call the Midwife thread?

I’ve just spotted that they’re also showing Top Gear on Yesterday at the moment…

Good vocab from the hamster!

It’s globally, simultaneously broadcast apparently.

He seemed disappointed in the VW Van driver.

What were the flag pins supposed to represent?

I think that Chileans helped them escape when it all went pear shaped in Argentina.

What were the flag pins supposed to represent?

What Harry said.

I liked Hammond’s choice of expletives.
the rest was the same old shit they trot out every other show.
and the script about the Lambos was exactly the same one they used for the Gallardo 10 years ago…

The race finish was bloody close wasn’t it!! 😯

EDIT: No cool wall though. 🙁

The race finish was bloody close wasn’t it!!

Not even a real hamster, etc.

No Flashy, that looks like a real one. (Or possibly it’s a gerbil, or some such similar thing.)

EDIT: Did you enjoy the show by the way? I imagine it’s right up your street.

That’s a really small truck. ^^^

That lambo did look bloody quick and capable of silly levels of control.

Liked hammonds description of the old gearbox.

St Petersburg looked quite tame compared to what I was expecting from you tube dashcam footage.

That’s a really small truck. ^^^

No Dougal, its just far away 😀
