TV: The Grand Tour

[ProstheticConscience]

So...it's been weeks now, hasn't it?

...right?

Yeah but those episodes are cut down to about 44mins when the typical run time is longer than that.

Just buy the dvd sets. I do. Got 'em all. I was planning to get BBC Canada just so I'd get new Top Gear, but now I realize it'd literally be the only thing I'd watch on it.

This is a real model SUV named the Pooper. I'm not sure if that is a boy or a girl in the picture.

The bbc has big balls to post this video on the top gear youtube page.

I have bought heroin.
It’s rice.
It isn’t rice.
It is rice.
Richard Hammond, trust me on this, on the streets of London, this has a value of £12 million.
No, mate, on the shelves of Tesco, that has a value of about a fiver.
It’s not rice!

For anyone who needs a Top Gear fix, James May's Cars of the People is surprisingly good. Very clever and better in my opinion than any of the other spin-offs they've done without the entire gang of 3+1 being together.

They took it down.

 

[Chaels Arms]

I just rewatched the episode where they lambaste Peugeot and Peugeot drivers. In terms of pure comedy this has to be one of the best Top Gear episodes ever.

Out of curiosity, what was the video?

Something talking about the search for new hosts. Didn't go over so well.

False, every episdoe is the best Top Gear episode ever with the idiots three.

Classic car rally on Ibiza for me. Mrs Suribachi and I were crying with laughter at that one.

My favourite TG bits (excluding the trips to exotic locales):

--they build British "versions" of a motorhome to travel on British roads. Jeremy's is three stories tall, square, and stuck onto a Citroen sedan. Because he's obviously never heard of wind resistance or centre of gravity.

--they buy cars pretending to be 17 year-olds, then try to insure them as 17 year-olds. And then as their parents. Challenges ensue.

--they buy old British Leyland cars (with their own money) to prove British Leyland actually made a few decent cars in the 70's. Spoiler alert: they really didn't.

--Jeremy somersaulting through Leeds in a Reliant Robin.

Off the top of my head.

"We can't wait to see what Jeremy, Richard, James and the team will create in what is sure to be one of the most globally anticipated shows of 2016."

So happy to have them coming back and with a timeline in sight, even if it is Prime.

What is Amazon Prime?

A premium membership to amazon.com

With it, you get free 2 day shipping on most stuff. Plus access to their Netflix style media service.

Huge get for Amazon. Curious to see if ever hear how much they paid.

Prime TV doesn't exist in Canada, so about 50% of this forum has no way to legally watch this show. That's why we all wanted Netflix.
