Anyone else think the last couple of episodes have been rather pants? Fair enough the crash was good and the the 250 mph run yesterday was good.
But apart from that its not really been upto the normal standard imo!
Maybe there being forced to tone it down a bit after hammonds crash?
Opinions?

Is this THE corsasport hill or another hill somewhere else?
And would the gradient of this hill be sufficient to make a plane take off if it was covered entirely in the gladiators travelator conyeyor stuff?

My Brother commented last night that its turning in to a talk show. To be honest he has a point. During the Hugh Grant feature I thought I was watching Parkinson, big clip of his film and some random chat.

PMSL from last night (I'd forgotten about this) when clarkson was presetning the case to the arty people for the tt they said something along the lines of 'what else does an audi tt say to you'

Clarkson "freedom, freeeeedom"

They don't do stuff like the cool wall anymore. Maybe its a lack of good new cars but having that RX8 in last nights feature was a bit odd, since its now a 2 year old car compared to new ones.

I loved what JC said about Bugatti not letting TopGear have a Veyron for the Stig so they want a viewer to lend them one

I was annoyed when they didn't give a clue about what was special about it, gonna try and get a heads up from the website

I'm guessing hypercar special
