Woeful episode. The only good bit was the stunning blonde behind Clarkson in the Sutherland interview.

Great advert for Australia, some nice filming and the boys not being that daft for the sake of it. So good episode but I wouldn't buy any of the three cars.

Great entertainment, even the two women in the house watched it all and enjoyed it.

I enjoyed it; especially the GTR hill climb. smile

ETA - they need to get rid of the star in the car part, I had no idea who the star was.

Excellent episode, great entertainment, stunning flying skills. Any of those 3 magnificent cars would be fine by me....

On the subject of the " I don't like TG, but I watch it anyway then go on the Internet to whinge about it" brigade : I don't like reality TV, so I make sure I watch every show. I'm now heading to the 'Celebrity Big Brother' thread to slag it off wink.

The cinematography was exceptional, and it was beautifully filmed.

For some reason, though, the whole whole episode left me a little cold. However, I'm in a funny mood tonight and I think it is almost certainly a case of "it's not you, it's me". I'm sure that in other circumstances I would have enjoyed it more.

Perhaps I will watch it again on iPlayer later in the week.

You could google him instead of showing your ignorance then.

Jesus Christ. Even if you have never heard of Keifer Sutherland or the character Jack Bauer, you must have heard of his father Donald Sutherland. It's not like it's a common surname.

As terrible as last weeks re-run was, this weeks episode was excellent.

Enjoyed more than I have done for ages, even laughed out loud a couple of times.

Especially liked the rally stage hill climb and the cow headbutting the nissan.

I was impressed the cars survived it, GTR is an epic car but a bit too playstation for me, Bentley not my thing and too pricey, BMW would be my choice (second hand).

Very amused by your post.

You start with "the war cry of the small brained" and in the next paragraph you write "but if the fans who did noticed the next episode"

Oh dear.

And the poster was correct, if you don't like it don't watch it. I just cannot get your point. I hate soaps, wife watches them, I don't. Loads of people like Downton abbey, never watched it as I hate period dramas.

Hope you are enjoying.
Oh God, I have to explain it to a simpleton. laugh

Take Downton Abbey. Never watched it, don't plan to. But imagine you loved the series. And then to win ratings they made it stter and stter. Would you be fine with that or would you grumble on an internet forum about Period Dramas.

This is the same point. TG was great. They started chasing ratings with not funny falling over and set ups. People grumbled that it was getting st. The TG fanbois kept saying "its perfect" when they were wrong. Hence the inane and tedious "don't watch it then" line.

It's like saying "My wife, she was a stunner and clever. Now she's just fat and stupid" So I'm divorcing her, rather than hoping she can go back to how she was. There's investment in the series people want it to be good. NOt st *(well aside from the small brained who want more st falling over)

Current series is so far a step back to the better series of the past. I daresay it's the criticism on forums that has made TG up it's game again. And it's far far better for it. smile
Well argued.

Why watch if you don't like though?

You're coming across as a Massive troll.

I have more important things to Google rather than an actor ape! (I assume the star is an actor)

I don't watch movies sorry; I have heard of neither.

What a very odd person you are.

You apparently watch television but have never watched a film?

(And, ironically, Keifer Sutherland is best known for a television series. Although his father is a film actor)

And yet it appears the aforementioned 'more important things' aren't more important than spouting tripe on an internet forum? wink
