Anyone see 5th Gear last night?

Tiff reviewing the 911: "Top gear is a bit long, but when I shift into 5th gear..."

Touché!

I must say, well done Tiff. I actually almost missed the in-joke as I thought it was a genuine car related comment but then the penny dropped. So, the ante has been up'ed, how will the big man riposte while at the same time keeping it dead-pan? Quite entertaining!

Edited: Last nights show was very good and I enjoy the high quality of presenters they have, keep it up.

Yep I noticed that and it raised a smile.

This is in direct response to Clarkson isnt it when he was saying something about 'shifting into Top Gear!'

I think it was "out of 5th gear and into top" from JC!

Well to get to 6th, 5th is pretty usefull.

Did take a few seconds before Tiff's line sunk in..*snigger* Wonder if JC was watching and if he picked up on it.

Lets watch for the little things in next weeks (in 2 weeks) TG

Well this is actually 5th gear being a bit slow seeing as JC got his jibe about "getting out of 5th gear and into top" in first! Rich...

On a slightly different tack – personally I think it would be good to see Tiff and JC just team up again on one decent car show, Tiff is actually quite a character on TV, better than the Stig. J Rich…
