|
Jenny*
|

|
xkatiex
|
lol, well she doesnt even watch it!! i loved the challenge aswell, and when james threw jeremys speakerphone under the steam roller that was so funny!!
|
Jenny*
|
he he yeah and trust jeremy to have the hardest job! sooo funny - i was loving the music played though! . . . not so much m. thatcher though lol
|
xkatiex
|

|
Jenny*
|

|
xkatiex

|
I missed it! Just caught the last minute. Love the hamster!
|
Jenny*
|
of course! dont worry it'll be repeated soon - i think on either mon or tues night
|
xkatiex
|
lol dont worry! yea it is repeated this week, you gotta love the hamster!!
|
Jenny*
|
who doesn't?! he he jeremy hasn't mentioned the teeth-whitening yet, can't be long off!
|
xkatiex
|
ooh yea i noticed that, definatly will be mentioned next week, along with another remark about his driving or needing a booster seat lol!!
|
Jenny*
|
yep thats gotta stick now!
|
April_Rose
|
Yeah, was great to see him, totally normal apart from the new found love for celery! The crash was mad, I think they felt they had anough material in that without going for the teeth whitening again until next week! I'm a big fan of the show anyway, delighted to have it back on again ,I was worried they'd cancel it but thankfuly Hamster is fine so they couldn't have!
|
Jenny*
|
yeah it was great news when i heard hamster was going to make a full recovery!
|
xkatiex
|
yea it was great! cant wait for the new eppy tonight, it will be good!
|
Jenny*
|
2nd episode was well funny! but they still haven't mentioned the cool wall!
|
Em_J
|
Dammit! I missed the second ep too! I keep forgetting it's on!
|
xkatiex
|
lol i think its repeated this week though! i loved it when they were on the golf course racing, well crashing into eachother, in the buggies
|
April_Rose
|
far more interesting than a game of golf! I think it's on a wednesday it's repeated, 7 o clock I think. I can't beleive Bugatti would let Jeremy Clarkson take a Veyron across Europe and not let Stig take it aorund the track, I'd love to see how fast it coudl go around the top gear track!

Cloverfield
|
I love this program, though i think a few extra thousand just tuned in to watch the crash.
|
April_Rose
|
yeah but they beat big brother in the ratings which was excellent, and some of those that watched just for the crash will probably keep watching it.
|
Cloverfield
|
Big Brother sucked this year. Just a bunch of rejects. I watched the second day and never came back
But yeah, i hope that they carry on watching it because they don't know what they are missing.
|
April_Rose
|
I never watch big brother, I just think reality tv is trash, all of it annoys me. I don't know what the ratings figures were for top gear this week but I woudln't be surprised if the average has increased a little bit anyway. The crash sure raised the profile of the show, although judging by the lack of slagging off this week regards the crash clarkson and may are sticking to their promise not to bring it up on the show again.
|
Cloverfield
|
Yeah, they didn't really discuss 'cars' that much on the last episode was was a downer. Hopefully people won't judge the program on that episode.
|

|
Anyone watch this last night? Hilarious! The rednecks bit was amazing, the way they went for the camera crew and everything! And the credits at the end - did you see they all gave themselves a redneck name, and all the crew were named as "billy bob!" Brilliant!
|
Jenny*
|
amazing last night! the guns part . . . literally wet myself!
|
April_Rose
|
It was brilliant, possibly the best episode ever! Pure genius!
|
Jenny*
|
i want to agree . . . but i love all the episodes!!
|
April_Rose
|
Well that is a veery valid point, I think they really pushed the boat out for that one, the fact it was just the one long film - I bet originally it wasn't supposed to be, but when they were editing they just couldn't figure out what to leave out as it was all so good!
When Clarkson arrived with the cow on the roof of his car....and the way they all kept ramming into May for running over the roadkill....I'm still laughing now just thinking about it!

i loved the lastest eppy where the challenge was to create limos!! i loved hammonds sports equipment when they were bowling and shooting arrows at james' head, hilarious!! and hammonds face when they were told about the water cannon and paintball, "im in a convertable!!" lmao!!
|
Jenny*
|
yep definatly! i also really really want a go at getting to the end of jezza's limo down that skateboard thing!
|
xkatiex
|
lol, yea that looked so much fun!! and chris moyles coming back from the shop down it!!!
|

|
It's not going to be back till the autumn - though there's talk of a summer special, which woudl be great if they do it!
|
Jenny*
|
yeah i cant last til the autumn for it! mind you i was just looking on the msn website and it says there are rumours that it has been cancelled totally!
|
April_Rose
|
I read those as well, apparently Clarkson said in one of his newspaper columns that it wouldn't be back, what is the BBC thinking? Top gear got BBc2's highest ever ratings! Then again, I read somewhere else, might have been in the Sunday times somewhere, that ITV wants to poach it as the guy who used to be head of BBC Michael grade is now in charge of ITV and they want to regain their cool, and some people think BBC are wasting licence payers money with the expensive stunts (like crashing a train into a renault espace, I thought that was brilliant) ...I don't care what channel it is on I just want it to continue!
|
April_Rose
|
Well, obviously it hasn't been canceled....
Anyone been watching the new series? I thought it was hilarious tonight when they went through Africa is those junk-heap cars!
|
Jenny*
|
I watched it! I thought it was hilarious! Especially when Jezza & Hammond were running round with the cow's head and meat!
|
April_Rose
|
I loved it when the cars filled with water!
|
Jenny*
|
oh yeah that was ace! hammond was in a pickle in that river! =]
|
Em_J
|
I'm watching it now, yeah it's funny!!
