I agree mate those specials are too scripted now which kinda takes the fun away.

i'll set the record whilst i remember! Cheers!

There's too many moaning bugas out there now complaining every time Clarkson says something not PC etc.  Leave him alone and he's a funny man.
Cheers for heads up.

i dont care about his non PC stuff but i dont find him funny anymore they have him scripted to play the "bumbling baffoon" every time hes not a complete idiot yet he always does the stupidist thing all the time its boring and very predictable

its either clarksons fault playing it every episode (and it may well be i bet he has a lot of pull on how the show runs) or its the producers and script writers either way it needs a shake up

Tbh even though I know its scripted I still find clarkson and may hilarious. Hammond can milk certain situations which can get on my moobs but its still the best programme on tv for me.

May have to watch it on the iplayer tomorrow though cos have to wake up at stupid o clock again.

1/7. New series. Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May put three supercars through their paces in Italy. Their weapons of choice are the 691bhp Lamborghini Aventador, McLaren's hi-tech MP4-12C, and a British brute in the form of the Noble M600. The journey begins at Nardo, a high-speed testing ground so vast it can be seen from space, and includes a nerve-racking drive in Rome before reaching its conclusion with a timed challenge against the Stig at the Imola circuit. The trio also look forward to some of 2012's most exciting cars and are joined by a celebrity guest who takes the wheel of the Reasonably Priced Car.

Someone really does need a bloody hard slap for that fuck up

What do you expect from a bunch of egotistic journalists?

And I bet JC picked the Lambo because he couldn't fit his fat gut in the McLaren or the Noble, which would have frightened him anyway with no electronic life savers....

James May all the way for me, he is the best of the bunch.
Scripted or not it provide me with some welcome relief from the other dross on in the evenings.

Indeed. Had he not died the same weekend as Senna then he would probably be remembered, the sad fact is that he will always be overshadowed by Senna's death. Senna was a great racing driver but his death is no more tragic than any other racing drivers death.

Enjoyed it, had a a few laughs out of it too.

I enjoyed it, but, is Jezza pregnant??

Yes Jeremy is a twat but it is entertainment and I personally like most of it.  No one is forcing anyone to watch it.  No likey, turn offey! I thought the India episode was shit, not because of all the non PC crap but because IMHO it was a shit episode.  It could have been filmed in any country including this one and it still would have been shit IMHO.  I liked this weeks episode.  Nice cars, a bit of daftness, nice filming and it beats all of the other shit on the tv.
