Jimzk5 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 The most embarrassing thing last night was the awful interview with Steven Tyler, asking the frontman of one of the most successful rock bands of they were still together. Painful viewing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houlston Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I thought last nights was one of the better ones to the point where the whole hour was almost enjoyable. The guy who writes a lot of it said the caravan bit was largely unscripted. Not sure how much I believe that. 5th Gear is by far a better programme with far better drivers who arent annoying unlike that ****ing Hamster twonk.

tonyh29 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 That retro 911 was pointless and a bit shit really Ideal for the person who wants to live in a living room coloured brown and purple with a dial tune TV I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted July 30, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2013 Probably the best episode of the series so far. Which is about as far from saying a lot as you can get. The caravan skit worked because it wasn't so obviously scripted, they weren't playing up to it so much that it becomes intensely unfunny because they're trying too hard. Even the bits that obviously where gags (the tip, dogging) had a far lighter touch that is much easier to enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avfc96 Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Pretty crap tonight except the last 10 minutes with all the British made cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benireduk Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Webber was funny and enjoyed the Range Rover Sport. The Jag review was spoilt slightly by the fact that I've seen F Types for the past 6 months being test driven on the A38 towards Bassetts Pole. The London Bus was slightly odd but the last 10 minutes was great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Yeah, I've seen F-Types around Brum too. One has parked in the Bullring car park several times over the past six months or so. It's a beast of a car though. I took this picture in April or May. Really enjoyed tonight's episode. Dunno how well the Wombles references in the news will play to the under thirties or overseas audience but they made me smile. Thought the last section was a bit saccharine and all that stuff about them not knowing who was going to turn up was bollocks. I was in London the day they shot that and everybody knew, I mean you have to get some kind of ridiculous permit (or be a program as popular as Top Gear) to be able to shut The Mall for a couple of hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbull Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Anyone who thought that the F-Type was cool, wait until the coupe version is launched. I haven't seen one yet but I've heard it's rather nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanBalaban Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 Haven't seen this week's episode yet (I'll fire up the VPN once it's on iplayer), but test driving the F Type this week, which I'm looking forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilS Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 The owner of my workplace has just bought a black F Type so I have seen one most days for the last month, I can confirm that it is very nice indeed. I haven't dared ask to go for a spin in it yet though, and don't think I ever will dare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
