Had to laugh, though!

A few thoughts - was totally organised by some organisatio or other, possibly the government. The Police seemed powerless, has anyone been arrested? As it was all caught on film.

 

Argentina seems like a tin pot despot dictatorship. The Falklands are fucking miles from there. You want some? We'll give it you.

Whats happened?

Whats happened?

 

 

Nothing new, just the Argentina incident was on telly last night

It's all a big fake anyway. More staged than the WWE.

 

Not even funny anymore or at least it wasn't when I stopped watching about 5yrs ago when I got sky.

Not sure the drivers that got hit thought it was a fake. Can't believe that the number plate was not deliberate though

Top gear?

 

I expected a thread about Pablo describing his clothing.

Or his bing.

Faked, staged, whatever

 

I like it.

 

Oh and there's been a lot of top gear in 5 years and 90% is top notch IMO

Clarkson looks very old

 

He'll be a dead pool contender in 2017.

Faked, staged, whatever

I like the travelog stuff. The Arctic one was very good.

 

This one was shite. The staged set pieces are getting very tired. It was a long two hours.

some of it i enjoy, some i dont

 

anybody watching top gear than slagging the format/presenters can fook right off

 

you know exactly what youre going to get

The fact that it's all so obviously staged does put me off, but I must admit it's easy watching. Watched a repeat the other night when they were pretending to have  a race to find the source of the Nile in cars they pretended they'd paid £1500 for, and I watched it till the end. It's mind-numbing shit really, but sometimes mind-numbing shit is what you need. To a certain extent anyway.

I used to live it but when I saw the one filmed in Liverpool where they raced some skateboarder through the city centre I felt cheated.

 

Knowing the city as I lived in it I could tell it wasn't a race at all and they had jumbled up scenes to make up a race, the geography was all over the shop.

 

Still find some entertaining mind, the chile one was good

Topgear can at times be great 'Sunday night entertainment' but they always over egg the pudding and have done so for years.

Not sure the Argy thing was actually planned though, the outcome certainly not.

The "challenges" were great to start with, but once they clocked how popular they were I think they started to over dramatise them.

 

Pretending a tv presenter can magically fix a mangled wishbone is stretching it.

 

Stick to racing cars lads

I'm pretty sure it's 'dumbed down' to the extent it is because the BBC make a fucking fortune selling it to the U.S. I'm sure I read somewhere that it's the biggest British entertainment export of all time.

We sold London Bridge to the yanks, and the daft fuckers thought we sold Tower Bridge.

A fool and his money are soon parted.

Yanks in London during the 70s with me watching Bolton, must have got ripped off to fuck. I always gave an helping hand to our colonial cousins these days in the smoke.

Anyone that watches top gear is a moron and a sheep.

 

Telly for plonkers with nothing better to do on a Sunday night that watch mind numbing shite.

 

Same type of folk that force feed their children chicken nuggets.

 

Scum the lot of you.

Clarkson often turns out in decent trainers though at least

Agreed.

Not my type of thing Tbh..

 

Driving round in cars I can only dream of affording... And that's before they get in the new ones..

Getting paid shit loads of money to drive some of the best cars around and travel the world pratting about seeing sights many of us will only see by watching them.

 

I'd have some of that.

 

I do think that was a genuinly dangerous situation they, and the crew, found themselves in.
