What Did You Notice in the Office?

    I was just looking at the episode broadcast last night. When they were in the TG office trying to get insurance quotes for a 17 year old:

    The Stig was in the background photocopying his head
    There was a photo of Will Young on Jeremy's desk
    There was a bottle of 'Smiles' on the Hamsters desk

    That's all I noticed. Did anyone see anything else? Fair play to them, I had a good chuckle.

    Any idea when the repeat is on? Missed the whole thing:(

    Couldn't stop laughing at the stig in the background happily photocopying away - so random.

    Wasn't trying to spot anything else but did spot the framed picture on a desk but didn't cop who it was. Funny stuff.

    Caravan model on Clarksons desk with pens stuck in it.

    Didn't notice any of that, except for Stig doing something in the background. You guys have great observation skills!

    Random pictures of dogs on Hammond's desk aswell.

    Although I thought they would have had Oliver up there somewhere...

    They really missed out on something there :pac:

    Thought there would surely be a poster of Kristen Scott Thomas there too. Nice work though with the Stig, comedy gold.

    Is there any significance to the red arrow on the right pointing to the door?

    Also liked the "THE GREAT TOP GEAR WHITE VAN MAN CHALLENGE" banner on the top left :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,599 ✭✭✭ScrubsfanChris


    I love the car-van pencil holder on the left near Jeremy's desk.
    Also, is Jeremy using a Stig mouse pad?

    The green and blue books "Locomotives 1948-1968" is a call back to the first episode of the season last week.

    Not sure who is in that pic, but there was a pic of Will Young on JCs desk. Not sure if it is that pic, or the one we can only see the back of there.

    A wee bit OT, but hardly worth a new thread of its' own;

    did anyone decode all the morse code messages that were played during Stig's laps last series?
    I know at least some were along the lines of "strictly come dancing is rubbish":D, but wondered if anyone had listed them all?

    (on wireless here, not easy to search)

    OMG just noticed the AK-47 on Jezza's desk!!!!!:pac:

    Strictly Come Dancing is crap

    I voted Ross Perot

    I honestly cannot decide if that desk between May and Clarkson would be the best place to work or the worst!! :D

    Nobody notice the giant pile of gold bars in the background? They're doin well :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,611 ✭✭✭✭Sam Vimes


    Not something hidden in the office but I loved when Hammond was on the phone to the insurance company pretending to be the dad and he said "Nope, no accidents in the past five years" and gave the camera a look :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,530 ✭✭✭TheInquisitor
