    Top Gear

    My favourite moment on Top Gear is just been repeated when Ellen Mcarthur does her star in a car lap and gets to be top of the board. The fastest time ever.

    How cool is that? she is amazing.

    Good call, but my favourite bit is the tset of that Swdish supercar the Koenigsegg (??). Only that lot could build something this insanely quick and not fit a spoiler.

    Clarkson practically craps himself trying to go fast in it.... magic!

    I think this is the link on YouTube.

    Yeah - it’s absolutely brilliant compared to JC or the ill fated versions with Chris Evans and Matt Le Blanc.

    Yes, not a patch on Clarkson,Hammond and May. Too staged, too matey and nothing really original.
    Visibility good except in Hill Fog

    To be fair, the original trio were staged and unoriginal for many years.

    The Andes one was the last decent one, and that was most definitely suffering from being convoluted and staged...

    Tried to watch it a couple of times but couldn't stick with it. Top Gear died when fist hit jaw and should be allowed a decent burial....with just 5 mourners!

    Was Jeremy Corbyn in it? Not surprised it was crap I don't see him as a petrol head.
    Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.
