You're coming across as a Massive troll.

PS, to be called a simpleton by a you is an utter pleasure. Thank you.

I appreciate you're thick. But Trolling is not the same as having a counter opinion to the fanbois

To be called a simpleton is because the hat fits

The current series is pretty good. I imagine you hate it because it's not like the India special.

Which one of you two is for the current series and who's against it?

Your petty bickering is quite hard to follow, sounds like you both like it, but hate it sometimes?!
Everyone obviously needs to have an Internet arch-enemy but you two are so 'handbags at dawn'.

Fantastic episode and a brilliant start to this series so far. Very enjoyable.

The series started last week, and it was poor at best.

This week, why go to Australia to test cars in a gravel pit and rounding up cows? What is the point?

We have cows and gravel pits in the UK.

Don't tell me this is entertainment.

Nah, they just spend a lot of money just to irritate people.

It's past its sell by date I'm afraid.

Now boring and repetitive.

As are the miserable tts that keep popping in to inform us of their opinions.

Well, after last weeks weak start to the series they were back on top form this week.

I'll definitely be watching that again later in the week, 3 superb cars (although a yellow Bentley is just wrong ) and some great laugh out loud gags thrown in.

Did they claim 75 feet for the M6 to stop from 60mph?

That's about 1.6g.

Does the M6 have some sort of air brake or something?!

Its remarkable those who clearly dislike the programme continue to watch it then waste their time telling others why they hate it then watch it some more and do the same.

Surely if you don't like something you watch or do something else you do enjoy instead.


I don't like baseball guess what I don't watch it. Likewise NFL and I don't watch it. Also personally I'd rather not watch Foyles War I don't particulariy hate it just not keen so never watch it - and for all of these I don't then go online telling others why I hate them.

Bizarre.

[Lugy]

It was an entertaining hour IMO, the camera work was really good and the hill climb part was good too, especially when normal Stig was smuggled into the Nissan. Wouldn't like to be the valeter afterwards though.

It also doesn't help with my want for an M6 either!

It's also bizarre to defend a tv-show which is well past sell by date and you know it.

Not bizarre at all. The opinion of those who are disappointed by TG, or segments of it, are just as valid as those who enjoyed every second of it. I haven't yet watched last night's episode but even without having done so, my opinion is that the SIARPC segment is past its 'best before date' irrespective of who the star is.

I haven't read that anyone 'hates' Top Gear but even if someone did, it's their opinion - PH would be an empty place without opinion.

Not so if they totally hate the entire show and have done for years clearly those need to stop viewing job done.

Those who for the first time disliked a section - heck I dislike some sections alof football games or Planet Ice etc

I suggest those who dislike sections record it then they can fast forward and skip the bits they dislike sorted.


If those who hate it continue to watch it their opinion is fruitless - like trying to talk to a life Labour supporter to vote Tory pointless debate

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

He was also married to Julia Roberts but you won't know who she is either

Here he is with a bunch of other people you won't know



Well, maybe you know the one on the right as 'that guy that promotes EE'

If you look at it again, you'll see that they all started braking way before the line.
Plus they didn't include reaction time in the figures. It would be interesting to see the results of a proper test and see how far away from reality the highway code is now.

Good episode.
Richard looked like he needed a booster seat in the Bentley though.

It made a refreshing change to not have a section or challenge aimed solely on goading the locals in some predictable way

[checkmate91]

I agree with the comments about global reach and showcasing different parts of the World (Vietnam and Botswana specials especially and that article from Albania), that's part of the enjoyment.

But not enough is said about the camera work on either the shows or the specials. Last night's was outstanding!
