    Can't Wait for This. Quality episode Sunday Just Gone


    Preview: S13xE03

    Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May confront the credit crunch head on as they attempt to find three sensibly priced small cars that won't make you miserable, a process that involves haranguing bankers, harnessing large dogs, and almost getting arrested.

    Plus, James meets American stunt driving legend Ken Block, Jeremy tests the mildly insane Mercedes SL Black on the track, and Michael McIntyre is the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car.

    SIARPC was poor, despite being relatively funny. Having a stand up on the show just to run through some of his "routine" is a waste of time.

    The cheap car segment was a bit lame too.`
    If you dont have money either buy 2nd hand or not at all :D
    And for 7,000 that grey yoke Jeremy drove wasnt that bad imo

    The rally drive segment, though pointless was very cool
    The camera crew love showing off their slow-motion work.

    This.

    Apart from the rally car bit I thought it was fairly poor, perhaps not as bad as last week, but still quite weak.

    Agreed. They do have a lessened budget this season though...
