I was just walking past Yoyo's on my way to the library when they came walking round the corner to do some filming. They were looking up at the side of the Debenhams building for some reason? Then they walked back to the main admin building, started the cars up, turned round (Clarkson reversed into the film crew) then drove off. They also had a Fabia VRS, a Vauxhall Insignia, 2 Range Rovers and a VW minivan to carry all the film crew and kit. Quite an entourage!
No great shock that there are no charging points - and hopefully there won't be as these machines fall through the gaps in the near future when the eco lies are exposed. I keep hearing that Electric prices are rocketing by 20% this year - funny how they don't mention the Eco Tax in that, well, on the BBC at least...

Yeah mate. I saw them later on when they were picking up the fully charged cars. I think they are staying just the other side of the waterfront. Hopefully it will show the city and Uni in a good light... although the whole Inbetweeners thing was pretty funny when they slagged us off.And yeah they also went for a bite to eat in Prezzo as saw Clarkson and May say out the front earlier on...

Crikey. Of course when you say "managed to break down" you mean the plot/script called for it, and it had all been planned at a production meeting four motnhs ago?
As seen in The Daily Fail http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-13867...

Indeed, which is also when that "joke" was funny. 
I think you meant "statement of fact".
