Creamy Goodness

do you all not just sky plus bbc1 hd?

top gear's scheduling has been erratic to say the best this series.

I was at the Q&A session in the Burlo with JC - he said that Hammond's fear of creepy crawlies was very real (and he also said hilarious!)

It does look very real. I hope there's not much more of it.

cjmcork

haha, Clarkson's 'boyfriend' on the iPod (fyi, I'm about 10 minutes behind the live version!)............meeeooowwww, re Kate Moss joke!

cjmcork

I sense complaints ahead for the incident with the machete............

amacachi

Complaints about what? Threatening him with the machete?

Loved Hammond on the Coke. :pac:

Meh, I'd be surprised if the producers etc. didn't make sure it was all completely legal etc. beforehand.

that was agiven,

the first ten minutes of this episode beat everything in this series.

copacetic

great show, the ones with no studio crap are by far the best, must have cost millions to make.

cjmcork

excellent ep - up there with the trip across the North Pole!

reminded me of that as i re-watched that one today.

seemed to mix comedy with danger perfectly.

Pacifico

They should just do these trips all the time, so much better than the tired studio format...

mike65

heh Hammond did look geniunely scared to death in the Landcruiser. You can see the joins in a few spots unfortunatly (on the mountain raod one of them came to astop with a "problem" and you could just spot a camerman on foot tracking the vehicle as it its stopped, on the other side).

missingtime

Balls! missed it

I disagree. whilst i love these kind of episodes, if they done them all the time then they'd become tiring like you think the studio show has.

Busi_Girl08

Anyone who starts pissing on about scripting and all that crap can just feck off.

That was the best tv I have seen all year.

Probably the best episode of Top Gear in a long time.

I am actually still reeling after watching it :eek:

seanybiker

excellent episode

fryup

not bad, but i still think that last years christmas special in vietnam was better
