I quite enjoyed the Forest away fans calling Clarkson a fat bastard

I enjoyed that one. Well, compared to last weeks at least!
The Noble was a bit mental and there was some nice bimmer porn as well!!

Yeah, I liked the Noble a lot. And the 635, even if the idea of painting the inside parts on the outside of the car was originally done by the 'BMW Genuine Parts' DTM 635 CSI (and a bit better too!)

I agree with that, the art bit was pants and predictable.
The rest was OK though, the Noble and JB.

There are still good bits, but you seem to have to sit thorough an increasing number of bad bits!
I had last week of and have been watching some old episodes again on Dave in between doing other things (decorating mainly).
Finding the best driving road and the race across Japan in the GTR - they were really good.

It's getting that there are a few good car snippets in the series, the rest just predictable twatting about. The arty farty car shots/slo-mo/mood lighting stuff is getting on my tits too.
The films are the saviour though, the vietnam one last series was brilliant!
Let's hope this south american trip lives up to it.

Where's the car's! I dont care about some art exhibition in Middlesborough! Start road testing something, anything that somebody can afford might be a start. JC is a Fat Bastard though, he looks 9 months preggo.

I still think the best ever TG was when they raced the Green Arrow Steam Train whainst the XK120 and the Vincent Black Shadow. It was just awesome.

TG is what it is, light hearted predictable entertainment and nothing more.
Everyone knows what to expect these days, so if they dont like that format, why continue to watch it and then moan?!

As for James's toy stories series, Ive loved them all!
So far Ive seen the Meccano, Scaletrix, and Lego ones, have any others been shown yet?
