Plenty of the PH brigade found it hilarious. Yes there were a few amusing moments but it all seemed a bit stale. RR's just don't do it for me either :closedeyes:

I believe it is effectively. This series is 7 episodes. And that was episode 5. The next 2 episodes are the Xmas special. Making this series only 5 episodes. Which is a bit cack. Which makes me think they will be in the studio a bit for the 2 parter to pad it out a bit. I believe that the delay in getting this series to air was the negotiation between Clarkson and wilman and the BBC. Which has been sorted. Will be interesting to see how long before the next series and how good / bad it will be.

I can answer that one Bob. It'll be bloody ages and you may get one good episode if you pray to the right God.

The bbc has no Olympics to cover so it must have spare budget to knock something up for summer. But again, no proper cars of note have/are being released....want to blame someone, blame the car buying public for not buying as many cars thus not making the oem's churn out more stuff :lol:
