Sunday night, hour or so after this episode of Top Gear and there doesn't appear to be a 'Top Gear is Crap' thread. Is this
because....
A. People who do these threads did the sensible thing and watched something else or
B. It was good this week.
Discuss !
No one posted a reminder so I forgot to watch it
Darts tonight
Darts for me too but topgear recorded for future viewing :-)
Watched about 5 mins halfway through. Got distracted, forgot what I was doing and did something else instead 
The bit I saw was what we see every week - three blokes had to get a vehicle and do something with it. No idea if it was any good cos I didn't
see enough.

...three monkeys in cars, ape about, crash cars, fanbois clap, end of..
Top Gear is so popular that no one watches it anymore
So option A then lol....
Did anyone watch the banger racing program after top gear? Not sure what to make of the banger racing scene.. I used to watch (and enjoy) proper stock
car racing at Aycliffe stadium many years ago, but this was nothing like that.
I watched 10 mins of it....Pikey central !
agree with above, seemed to be pikeys with trouble stringing a sentence together,
I was working on the car.
Last nights was a total waste of disc space on the Sky + box!!
I'm guessing next weeks will be as bad, 3 idiots playing with bits of trees and falling in a river....
Top gear was poor. One of those "specials"
As for the banger racing, people entering with the sole purpose of crashing seems stupid and a complete waste of time to me
The Top Gear 'special' was absolutely awful. One of the worst I've ever seen.. So bad, I switched it off after 20 mins or so.
Utter tripe!
Dose not look good for me then as i thought both programs were good

I also thought both shows were good. Though the banger racing was eye opening! I always thought it was racing with contact allowed, not lets go and see how big a crash we can have.
Its An "A" for me
and the banger racing was a tad weird, and very Pikey driven plus letting 11 yr olds drive round a track, must give them the wrong message, so i
wonder how may of them drive illegaly on the road ?
At one point in the prog we see a younster move a silver van a few feet, so his father can open the rear doors
looked like a public road to me

Top Gear was worth persevering with this week, just for the Horse Riding...
I couldn't get past the bit where JC was operating the boom and the typical 'chaos' ensued. Maybe if I'd not seen it happen
tens-of-dozens of times before...
I just found it incredibly unfunny. In fact, I found it irritating!
I've said it a few times before - they took a wrong turn about 10 years ago by deciding to focus more and more on contrived schoolboy slapstick.
They got it wrong. It hasn't worked. They've effectively killed a rock-solid winning-formula that was a huge success across the globe.
Great cars, beautiful camera work, and subtle natural 'guy' humour. All that's gone and although they can occasionaly retrieve it for
a short segment of the odd show, I don't think it will fully recover.
RIP TG.
As for Hammond... nah, I'll leave it as I'm irritated enough!
