Grahame Posted August 11, 2014 Report Posted August 11, 2014 While not proper Top Gear, this may help.
Grahame Posted October 3, 2014 Report Posted October 3, 2014 Meanwhile. There may be an Epic Road Trip in the next series of Top Gear. I wonder how they will report on the "issues" they faced http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2779236/Jeremy-Clarkson-Top-Gear-team-forced-leave-Argentina-early-police-escort-inciting-Falklands-outrage-H982FKL-number-plate.html
catscratch Posted October 5, 2014 Report Posted October 5, 2014 Gee, there's a big surprise. After pissing people off for years and getting away with it because nobody takes them seriously anymore, they finally stepped on one toe too many. That's what happens when your primary selling shtick is a mix of crude bumbling slapstick and caricature nationalist xenophobia. I'm gonna say they had it coming.
Grahame Posted October 10, 2014 Report Posted October 10, 2014 Top Gear puts their side of the story http://transmission.blogs.topgear.com/2014/10/10/top-gear-in-argentina-what-really-happened/
Sherwood Posted October 11, 2014 Report Posted October 11, 2014 Some things are obviously pranks, but I can buy their side of the story. I'm not sure what the specifics of plate registration are in Argentina, and the explanation was not terribly illustrative, but suffice it to say that this appears to be their reputation catching up to them, and perhaps not deliberate provocation. In any case, it is hilarious. I love their style, and I'm glad that they're willing to ruffle feathers in pursuit of it. Most people never have the opportunity to cause international incidents with their caricatures, and I'm glad that Top Gear takes their responsibility seriously. A little mockery on the international stage helps defray larger tensions, and no one can be held accountable for what Top Gear does but the show itself. 1
n_maher Posted October 12, 2014 Report Posted October 12, 2014 My son just went cruising down the driveway in his toy car screaming, "POWER!!!" I think my job as a parent may be complete. 3
emelius Posted November 20, 2014 Report Posted November 20, 2014 ^said DVD is out...am watching now... 1
catscratch Posted November 21, 2014 Report Posted November 21, 2014 Reasonably good special. Predictable, not better than the last one, but still quite enjoyable. The Alfa and the Vette both look brilliant.
Leonardo Drummond Posted December 28, 2014 Report Posted December 28, 2014 While it was nothing too special, I'm just glad it was sort of honest and even slightly serious, not excessively staged and silly. Looking forward to part 2!
n_maher Posted December 28, 2014 Report Posted December 28, 2014 The real question is how to get it with PB gone?
Leonardo Drummond Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 I got it on kickass.so, it's been my go-to torrent website! And I watch it live via stream2watch.com or something like that. Slightly difficult to dig through the many ads and fake clicks, but works in the end!
Grahame Posted December 29, 2014 Report Posted December 29, 2014 Hint: watch Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid to prime your reference bank.

n_maher Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 Sadly, not in my neighborhood. BBC America is not impressed.
Voltron Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 Grahame is not restricted by nations or networks. Grahame is a citizen of the interwebs. 1
Craig Sawyers Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 I'm kinda lucky being in the UK - you just turn on the television and pow - there it is Couple of years ago I was stuck in a traffic queue in front of James May in his RR. Both he and Clarkson live within 30 miles of me, which actually isn't really saying much because the UK is really very very tiny.
