Last night's Top Gear

[Richard.John]

It has become the Jezza-Hamster-Mr.Slow let's take the piss out of each other show, but it's still great to watch. I personally would prefer less of the pointless challenges (smash up caravans,etc) and more car challenges. I hope Richard and James get a chance to stick Jeremy in a train or plane this time and then get to beat him acrosss Europe or whatever. I also wish they'd make the effort to come to Japan and do a segment on the car culture or cars here.

[Gradius]

This series is going to feature a kit car building challenge, the 3 presenters against their other halfs, Porsche Cayenne Turbo vs Skydiver, delivering the centre spot to a world cup venue, turning a Robin Reliant into a space shuttle, jet powered canoe vs TVR powered 4x4, presenters building cars that work as boats and a caravan holiday.

This is my favourite programme on TV hands down.

Another good ep tonight, loved the segment when they were on the radio, they were shockingly bad at it, even hammond who's done radio before, i'd probably have been sat there laughing my ass off had i been sat in the car listening to that and knowing what was going on

[Spatial]

I had to laugh at the old woman who phoned in to given them a telling off. And the looks on the faces of the radio station staff were priceless

[Wools]

I couldent stop laughing during that radio segment, they were brillant!

Anyone else not supprised the Stig got the fastest lap?

That Jag?

[eastyy]

I found it very funny when clarkson was riling hammond on the way to the radio station

[PeteJ]

Such an entertaining show as always, the radio station was so funny. Gorden Ramsay looked so scared when he was about to be told his time

I want that Jag, a thing of beauty!

[oblivion_6]

That was a lovely looking jag that, although I do like the sound of that convertible aston thats coming out soon, albeit its probably 3x the jags costs

I thanks you

[Alastair]

Am I the only one who didn't find it nearly as good as last weeks? That jet powered canoe looks awesome though, would love a go in it.

I think the races need to be shot a bit better and become a little less obviously staged, unless they had a camera crew of about 200 there there's no way they shot more than 20 seconds of that race at one time. I actually doubt there is a real race at all, they just film loads of segments and edit them all together to make the best 'race' they can. Sometimes it looks ace but others it just gets on my tits.

[Kotatsu Neko]

I think the races need to be shot a bit better and become a little less obviously staged, .

Oh they're clearly staged, all of them. The way they tend to finish within seconds of each other, even after driving across the whole of Europe...

You need to think of Top Gear as just an entertainment program, it's nothing to take seriously.

I want that Jag, a thing of beauty!

Didn't think it looked all that tbh, but compared to it's German rivals, it was a thing of beauty.

[Alastair]

It's so obviously a Ford too. Compare the nose/grille to that of an Escort/Ka or Puma. That oval shape is exactly the same. If I had that much money for such a car I would not want to come home with a Ford in a sports jacket.
