I quite liked this weeks episode. Nice tongue in cheek feature on the Yeti, seems a damn good car. Porsche bit I was hoping would be like the Lancia piece they did a while ago which was a shame, wasted chance to show all those porkers in action. Atom bit was cool, never really been a fan of star in the car. I liked TIff being in it, hope he makes more appearances.

Only another 5 episodes to go though.

This is the second episode since the stig went that Tiff has had involvement with isn't it? Missus bumped into him a few times at Brands for the BTCC final not even knowing who he was  :grin:

Apparently a really nice chatty bloke from what she said

Really enjoyed tonights episode. Good entertainment, not too forced sounding.. Atom V8 was ace!
Wouldn't be fun if it was easy, but does it have to be this much fun?

Star in a car was someone I'd never heard of, why not get someone that has some sort of interest in cars at least, and a proper interview!

How can you not have heard of John Bishop. He is really rather funny - well as comedy is subjective, I and quite a few people I know find him funny.

He's been on Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, etc and etc.
You need to stop having a life and sit yourself down in front of the TV for a good few hours. Get yourself some popular culture education!  :smiley:

I thought last night's TG was fine. Very amusing with some good cars. What more do you need?

Haters gonna hate, lol.

I enjoyed it and although format isn't much different I doubt that will change and I think the porsche's were from a club and were there only for show (not looning around in?)

and the big test is my lad this weekend..........if he only watches it twice then I know topgears day's are numbered  :smiley:

I missed it as I was too busy playing Black Ops, but then again I can just catch it on iPlayer.

As for it running it's course, I feel it has burned out to a certain extent, but it's still enjoyable to watch, if you don't like it, do something else.  :grin:

I enjoyed it and no doubt will watch it repeatedly on dave for the next few years to come. Top gear lets be honest is an entertainent show not a car show and if we take it as that it's a laugh and I am sure even the haters out there had the odd chuckle while watching the show and after all if you are made to laugh watching something is that not money well spent?
