The Grand Tour thread
Re: The Grand Tour thread - apologies!
Eh? No that lasted 2 months, wasn't for me.
Work is one of the many things stopping me driving the car plus other interests these day and a severe lack of campaganzas

You have to fight it kenny.
Can not believe how much I hear the work ethos trotted out as an excuse for not getting the most out of life. Believe it or not I use to work once even though it was a long time ago, but I never let it get in the way of everything else that I wanted to do.

Careful Tut. Things are different for this generation I'm afraid.
Kenny, apologies for lack of Campaganzas this year. Must try harder in '17. Been a bit busy running a small business

The professionally offended have, predictably, found something to get huffy about. Apparently clarkson said something to do with cars, Gypsies and insurance.
Hope amazon tells them to fck right after off.

If the second episode was still under the Top Gear banner it'd be getting panned left right and centre.
Very disappointing after such a great start.

Re: The Grand Tour thread - apologies!
I'm struggling with it a bit... I fell asleep half way through it, but I've not much interest in watching the bit I missed. I recon I must be a bit bored of the same kinda format.
I'll try and stick with with it.

2nd show was still preferable to the crap Evans turned TG into but overall it was a bit pish.
Suspect the first amazon series will be a bit hit and miss as they try some new stuff.

You say that but there were a few of the episodes of new top gear that worked really well IMO, the episode with Harris and the TDF and Roy Reid with the focus rs was a stand out episode to me. Really liked the two of them and felt le blanks contributions were on the money throughout.kenny wrote:2nd show was still preferable to the crap Evans turned TG into but overall it was a bit pish.

Le Blanc came across a bit wooden at times and needs to work on reading an autocue, other than that he was good.
Just watched the first GT while waiting for my next flight, as I couldn't get it when on the rig. Not impressed with the American or the Belgian TBH, the rest was well made if there was a bit to much filler in it. The dead celebs and the "fight" with the audience what was that all about.
