I didn't quite see what happened to the Lambo. I looked away for a second and suddenly there was fluid dripping out of the bottom of the car Grin

An alright start to the series. I hope the rest is good.

no wonder there have been two big gaps between episodes. The next is the last in the series. Only 7 this time.
I really cant believe they only have the budget for 7 episodes. It has to be one of the highest rated shows.

Budget problems with Top Gear? How? Must to be one of the BBC's most watched shows.
As long as there's a few more years worth of Top Gear I'm good.
Apparently the next episode will be a South America special though.

They did do an episode in the States a few years back, got to eat a squirrel, carry a cow on the roof of a Camero and get rocks lobbed at them by red necks from Alabama who had the combined IQ of a piece of cheese!

Top Gear America has been "canned". Can't say I'm surprised. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top_Gear_%28U.S._TV_series%29

Expect a call from the RSPCC - that's grossly unfair to the cheese!

As for the Alabama red-necks, for once I think that was one that wasn't necessarily staged, unlike most of the rest.

Just watched that episode and what a disgrace. I feel sorry for people who live in Alabama and are not violent, xenophobic twits with firearms Undecided

. Granted they were purposefully provoking with their cars, but when is it ever excusable to throw rocks and threaten to shoot someone when they are just passing through, for a humorous television show none the less?
