sounds like old ideas being re hashed again,just realised it started about 10 mins ago but cant be bothered going downstairs to watch it,maybe Im just getting old.(no maybe about it actually) :'( ;D
I am also getting increasingly concerned that Hamster is getting a bit too in touch with his feminine side,its like watching a slow motion gender transformation. :o

Missed the last two episodes and then missed the repeats. Can't remember them, its the low quality that it cant register in the brain. :D

 ::) Some might say, Tv producers have it easy making blokes programming; as long as there`s cars, competition and egotistical presenters: men (generally-speaking) will watch any old rubbish. ;D

Despite it`s large weekly-audience figures; the T.G format (to me) seems hackneyed and repetitious.

Sorry to be different, but I find TG entertaining.

It's a comedy programme loosely based around cars...

...which is fine by me.  :y :y

With it also Debs being high octane testerone fueled, and one theme; big boys and their toys!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

It is amazing that the other ingredient is not there as well; blonde girls with big boobs!! :o :o :o :o  Perhaps the men couldn't take that as well as playing with cars, with it being too much like multi tasking ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Poor souls, but still anything to keep them quiet and happy has to be a good thing 8-) 8-) 8-) :D :D ;)

Big boys and their toys?

Like any successful TV series, it will always have it's critics for and against. ::) I have to say it's one of my favourite TV progs and I find it entertaining and funny with a few nice motors thrown in for good measure. :y Clarkson, Hampster and May make a very good team but they're never going to float everyone's boat. ::) Loved the £1500 RWD car challenge to France - absolutely hilarious at times. :y :y

What did I start here!! ::) ::) :o :o :D :D :D

I think I have proved that to make TG even better for men they will have to introduce buxom girls, pawing all over the cars and the presenters; well not James May as I would be extremely jeolous ::) ::) ::) ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D ;)

This is the real world and just cars are not enough for men!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :y

Regardless of wether you love it or hate it as a program, how many other programs do you kmow that have a 2.5 to 3 year wating list for audiance tickets.  I think the UK and world wide viewing figures back the show s popularity up as well. . . . .

I thought the 1500 quid challenge had real promise but the tests themselves were crap.   

And what is it with hamster that he has to keep crashing into the others' cars - that might have been mildly amusing the first time, but is long since past its sell by date.   I think he should retire to presenting stupid game shows..

Unrelated, but I use to work with a guy who had been in a serious car accident years before, and had had his face reconstructed. Nice bloke, even if I disagreed a lot with him professionally.  The doctors had got some nerve connections mixed, the most obvious being they had transposed the nerves to one of his tear glands and his saliva gland.

Poor sod, too much saliva when agree, and wet eyes when hungry.

Being the cruel bastard that I was am, I used to wind him up to see how far he would spit ::).  And just before lunch come out with comments like "I'm so hungry I could cry" ::).  Not sure if he ever cottoned on though.  Shame I lost touch with him, as he was a nice guy, despite my wind ups.

I've just watched the episode on catchup. god I love iPlayer! as in fact I've watched three in a row  :y

really should be having quicker lunches   ::)

anyway, did anyone else have a chuckle at the 'sponsors' for the ice race?  ;D Watch again if you didn't!

A bit childish but still very funny when they opened the doors and changed the words...  ::)  ;D.

I love top gear, even watching repeats on Dave when I can. must be something weird with me tho as I don't really notice how many girls are/aren't on the show, I'm just entertained by pretty much all of it!

Ps. but why do that to two pianos?  :'( :'(

Lol, they did the sponcership wording thing when they raced the BMW as well.  allways seems to have a double meaning when the doors are open.

I also seem to remember they did something to the titles of the "Companies" they created when they did the van removal thing as well. ;D ;D
