Haven't watched it yet, seems it will possibly be interesting when I do - fingers crossed!

Enjoyable. Reminiscent of old school TG.

I laughed a few times. So it was fine. Unlike current Top Gear.

I couldn't keep my eyes open. That was dull.

Hard work getting through that...

Some nice bits but mostly childish nonsense we've seen a hundred times before.

Hammond was good in this one I thought, some of his comments were pretty funny, especially with that Moulin-Rouge car thing.

He was. His comment “I didn’t think I’d inhale them” amused me somewhat

Just watched it, being part French and having owned hot hatches like a GTi6/R26 Megane I enjoyed large parts of the show. A lot of what they said about the French was spot on too.

Enjoyed that. Nice to see Richard Porter there too, didn't realise he was working on TGT.

Not as bad as some have said at all, but, I did find myself 3/4 of the way in looking at my phone and/or the laptop as my attention waivered a little. Whereas at times with CHM Top Gear and occasionally TGT I would be totalling engrossed for the entirety of the episode. Watchable though and some funny moments and better than the crap on terrestrial TV tonight.

I really liked this one! I thought it was the best one of the 'specials' they've done. Seemed to have the right mix of serious and cocking around.

I did wince slightly at that, though in the closeup shots after it hit the ground it looked like it was pretty rotten.
