Top Gear classic

[gazhull8474]

What a quality show tonight full 90minute (40 still to go). Would rather have the Porsche over the other 2 any day. Although the Amg was fun with the back end flicking out

[rtbiscuit]

is this a repeat, i thought the new season wasn't till next year?

[dunkster]

Anybody want a pussy energy drink!!

Anybody want a pussy energy drink!!

 

i'm recording it at the mom to watch later.

[shire350Z]

Not a repeat new one for Xmas i think

 

It'd have to be that Ferrari for me

 

Who's the Tiff they were talking about when doing the star in a reasonably priced car? They were talking as if he was doing as the stig use't to, showing the celebs how the get round the track quickest.

 

Can't be Tiff Needell can it?

[Chris`I]

Yes James, its Mr Needle. He used to do TG too you know!

 

Would take the Fezza personally - I want a steering wheel like that

 

Also, its labelled as 7/7 on my FreeSat, but I think its the first in the new series.

 

Blurb from RadioTimes:

 

As the tyresmoke trio return to our screens, a question hangs over the next series: what will they do about the Stig? Since the summer run ended, Ben Collins has unmasked himself as the human face behind the white-suited man of mystery, speed and poor musical taste. The producers were outraged and a million merchandising opportunities went down the toilet. Or did they? For the recent arena shows, the team introduced a new Stig, hand-picked from the "Stig farm" where they breed tame racing drivers (or so a brilliant spoof video on the show's website claimed). Whether he/she/it will make it to the small screen, we'll find out tonight. We'll also see Clarkson, Hammond and May test the world's top sports cars by driving a Mercedes, a Porsche and a Ferrari up America's east coast, where they face a series of challenges culminating in a race to New York.

Crimbo special 2nd one is on Boxing day I think.

Good laugh , I enjoyed it ! aint enjoyed TG for ages

[Ian]

[ewan221]

Lucky for me I follow tiff on twitter and he said it was on

[racinggreen]

Top show - loved the stig targets.

 

[llowen27]

One of the best ones for ages.

[Gibby]

That 911 OOOfffttt! be better in black though with lambo orange accents

[rtbiscuit]

thats what confused me as it said 7/7 as well. will set the series to record. cant wait to watch this later.

[350 Russ]

it made me laugh with hammond shooting stig in the back ,

 

it would have to be the big merc for me.

[Tarmac@TarmacSportz]

Gutted ! Didn't know this was on

[Biggy]

Missed the first part but the rest was classic TG, loved the drive by shooting the stig

[shire350Z]

Knew tiff had done top gear years ago didn't know he was going back, is he leaving fifth gear now?

[Biggy]

He didn't actually appear on the show tho did he?

 

I'd imagine he's in some sort of contract with channel 5?

[paulie]

I think we spotted a custard 350z going on to track. I will need to rewind to check.

[rtbiscuit]

only 20 min in but i love th enoise that merc makes

[Sam Mcgoo]

I am away at the moment.

 

Could someone please have a look to see if/when this is on again so I can ask the missus to Sky+ it.

[gazhull8474]

Wait till you hear the noise of the cars in new york very sweet.

[jimgallaher]

Yep defo a custard Zed. I know Clarkson dissed the Zed,but I still think its one of the best shows on telly. And Jezza definitely hit the 911 demographic on the head, I'm 52 and I WANT ONE !!!

[Chesterfield]

The 458 makes my knees go all wobbly.

[Watshot]

I am away at the moment.

 

Could someone please have a look to see if/when this is on again so I can ask the missus to Sky+ it.
