Things to do with a Ford Fiesta:

Race away from the bad guys in a Corvette in a shopping centre!

Join the Army in a beach landing!

Classic!

Otherwise, anyone agree with me that last Sunday's episode was ever so slightly boring? The Russian cars segment seemed to last forever...

The russian car section amused me, not as much as Boris Johnson though

Boris Johnson is such a Dick, he was quite funny though.

As for Top Gear not being up to its usual standard, i think Clarkson hinted at it in the part where he said "it seems that i have come to the bit where i cant say what i mean to say"

I had noted a sudden drop in entertainment value on top gear since the Ross and Brand thing, BBC it would seem are cleaning up the shows with the threat of having your genitals Fed to Clarkson's V8 Blender.

I would like to feed Gorden to Mr Clarkson Blender while saying, Say hello to my BIG gas guzzling friend Laughing

I think it has got a bit more blokey in recent weeks. All that stuff yesterday about wizard's sleeves and pork swords was more suited to Nuts TV than Top Gear!

And the interviews now?! ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

They may as well wheel Parky on for 10 minutes if all we're going to get is bumlicking boring crap about their new CD. Tom Jones? Didn't he used to be famous?

I thought that last week's episode was good, with the Boris Johnson segment, as well as the Fiesta and the Communistical cars.  This week's not so such.

I do think that this season as been a bit more hit and miss, and a particular low was the Mark Whalberg interview (including a movie clip).  Obviously, a few guests due to see Jonathan Ross have been moved to Top Gear.

Yeah, the interviews haven't been great.

Boris Johnson is great entertainment value because he is Boris Johnson. I used to really enjoy watching him when he was chairing Have I Got News For You? Tom Jones and Mark Wahlberg both looked uncomfortable, especially Wahlberg, who really was only there to plug a film few would have any interest in.

Otherwise, the best interview this season by far was with Will Young: 'You look really fit... Oh, that's come out all wrong, hasn't it?'

Interesting segment on the new Honda though. Could this car represent the future of driving...?

Ah, Top Gear is back, this weeks episode which was broad casted after the 9 0'clock watershed seemed to be back on form and actually had me laughing very loudly, and welcome back things you can do with an obsolete V8 engine.

the apology to the Morris Marina owners club was as good if not better than the apology to truckers, as in unrelenting,

one of the highlights for me was the David and Goliath touring car coverage, the Top Gear Awards were hilarious, and the constant banter between the three musketeers, Captain Slow chats up a bird, "hello" and Clarkson chats up a young "fit" man, oh and that little bloke, whats his name? you know, the one with the hair Smile
oh, and what about the hydrogen fuel cell car, sure as hell beats chopping down the rain forests to produce palm oil for bio fuel, and plugging your electric car into the mains to charge it with electricity produced by either coal or nuclear stuff? neither of which are not at all very green but stand to make a few individuals very very very rich.

Which is probably why the hydrogen car will fail.

There's not as much money in saving the planet as there is in killing it (and I'm not even that much of an environmentalist - I do it because it saves me money).

I loved May chatting up a girl. I'd skimmed that when it was first broadcast; seeing it again now in a new light was staggeringly funny.

Bring on the Vietnam road trip!
