GC350z Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 There's a new episode on tonight. 8pm BBC2 as usual. 450-mile race across the Arctic to the North Pole. Hammond taking a team of Inuit sled-dogs while Clarkson and May are in a heavily modified Toyota Hilux. Guy Quote
sl114 Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Cooooool, thanks for that, my man of leisure status is hard at work today. Quote
Chris`I Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Good spot chap, I would have never seen that if you hadnt posted This should be a goodie Quote
martinmac Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Dont feel too sorry for Hamster, he had a new Ferrari and Merc waiting for him when he got home!!! Quote
Chris`I Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Feckin nutters, they nearly fell through the ice Quote
MarkW Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 New series "Heroes" on afterwards too....looks promising...and in HD Quote
rmmackfc Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 New series "Heroes" on afterwards too....looks promising...and in HD It is awesome, watched the full 1st series Quote
steve_b Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Watch out for a return of the cars converted into boats. They were filming them done at dover docks last friday next to the speedferries dock. Did not see hammy or others but there was about 10 cars-trucks and the "VW camper boat" Toyota pick with outboards and the triumph with a sail. Quote
martinmac Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 Best tv in ages for so many reasons. Brilliant. Quote
GC350z Posted July 25, 2007 Author Posted July 25, 2007 New series "Heroes" on afterwards too....looks promising...and in HD It is awesome, watched the full 1st series It certainly is. Can hardly wait for the second series. Guy Quote
rmmackfc Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I think 5th gear is edging Top Gear..... Top Gear could have a lamp presenting it and it would be brighter than the 5th gear team. Only one I have time for is the big guy Tom Quote
Chris`I Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I think 5th gear is edging Top Gear..... Taxi for one Quote
sl114 Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I missed it as i ended up in town, is there a repeat??? Quote
martinmac Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I think 5th gear is edging Top Gear..... Yeah, 5th gear is trying to copy the format but it seems disjointed and messy. Trying to please too many people. Top gear has got a winning formula with a team of presenters who work together great. Last night was one of their best yet. v = Quote
Chris`I Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I missed it as i ended up in town, is there a repeat??? If you're not dedicated to watch it the first time around, you dont deserve a repeat Fortunately I dont run the BBC so you get another chance, Sunday 8pm (click me!) Quote
Digsy Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I think 5th gear is edging Top Gear..... Top Gear could have a lamp presenting it and it would be brighter than the 5th gear team. Only one I have time for is the big guy Tom +1 Quote
Dan Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Excellent program, I really enjoyed it. I honestly think they didn't know what they were getting themselves into. Amazing vehicle though to make it across that terrain. Same goes for Heroes, but then I'll watch anything with Ali Larter in it Quote
MarkW Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Same goes for Heroes, but then I'll watch anything with Ali Larter in it Ooh yes....she's hot. I so would Thought the Top Gear episode was good too. They really just seemed like a bunch of schoolkids who had no idea what they were getting themselves into.....or is it just all acting for the camera Either way, top quality from the BBC. And 5th Gear..... Quote
Ebized Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Loved the bit where the Icelandic mechanic 'set fire' to the deflated tyre to get it back on the rim and the look on Clarkson's and May's faces Quote
