Frosty Jack Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Mostly still genius, but I couldn't help thinking with this one they kinda jumped the shark. Normally I can ignore the possibility of scenes being set up, but the caravan fire was just too unbelievable. Spoiled it a bit for me.

Sarah Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Was so funny. Was set up, still so funny, though do believe James really can't reverse a caravan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kan' Sharuminar Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Everything about Top Gear seems set up.Of course, that doesn't stop it being the best programme on the box.Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeid Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 It's way better than it used to be and very entertaining. I don't even like cars that much, but it's just good tv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fi_miller Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 im going keep being ignorant and say that none of it is set up. its better to watch knowing (or rather believing) that all the things are spontaneous. good stuff.Fi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Marlin Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Class episode once again, but i'm pretty sure it's illegal to be wearing a crash helmet while driving a car on the public highway (even if it's a Caterham). Suppose the stig did get lifted in the end though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fi_miller Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 the lastest episode. geeeenius. i'd love to be able to build a kit car in 8hours. if i could afford one. so poor. i never knew good old stig had a bladder. well you learn new things everyday.

RossP Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 If they are offended, simple; don't watch it.I'm sure there is some *insert: Weightloss, wifeswap, police drama, auction, sell your house, buy a house, make over..... Programme* on the other channels which will not stimulate any independent thought or possibility of offence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Mega old thread bump. I know a lot of people have gone off it and they've become caricatures and blah blah blah, but I still really like it. Though more and more as the series goes on a lot of it feels really fake and set up, which is a bit disappointing. I thought Series 21 was middling, nowhere near as good as 20, but there were still a few memorable moments, the race in Chernobyl in particular was excellent and the Burma special was good too. Though did I really hear Jeremy Clarkson call an Asian guy a "slope" on Sunday? How is that acceptable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I like Clarkson, because he sticks the boot into Piers Morgan on a regular basis, and anyone who is an enemy of Piers Morgan is a friend of mine. I don't really care for Top Gear though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Milner Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I still quite like TG and ive always had a soft spot for Clarkson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britheguy Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Never seen this thread before. I got the whole of the first 12 series on a hard drive (no pun). The early shows were very basic and held in a large empty hanger somewhere. I get the feeling it was only friends and families of the film crew etc that turned up.
