Just a lil reminder as I (like a lot of people) forget about it all the time! Making cars into homes...sounds interesting!

Any reviews or is it just more stupid myth buster stuff again this week?

It didn't say in the discription, just about them making their cars into homes. Seen pics in the paper, Clarkson uses bricks, usual pointless stuff but entertaining none the less!

EDIT: my mistake, obviously not that episode! Track day family cars, could be good!

Honestly, why they haven't scrapped these "celebrity" interviews is beyond me.

The star in a reasonably priced car interview was shocking.

Gone way down hill - watch the autoblog by some dutch lad on Youtube for way better car show

I reckon the German Stig was Sabine Schmitz

But yeah, that interview was really stupid.

And it was funny tonight.

And it will be funny next week.

And it will still be funny next year.

They reckon as the BBC don't do advert breaks that the interview with the star in a reasonably priced car is when most people watching put the kettle on to make a brew.

Yep thats exactly what I do when the SIARPC is unknown and uninteresting, just like tonight's "star".

Still not a suitable guest IMO. Most of the people there didn't seem to think so either.

I wouldn't mind if the guests were real petrol heads (Jay Leno, Chris Evans, Jay Kay were all interesting) but they really take the piss with some of the people they have on. I remember they had Helen Mirren on and she said that she had no interest whatsoever in cars - why is she on Top Gear then? Does she think the average Top Gear viewer wants to listen to her talk for 10 minutes that could be better spent reviewing cars or doing a challenge?

Campbell is Clarkson's nemesis. they hate each other, which makes it a "car crash" interview.

This series has gone downhill. track day car bit was good, but last weeks was shockingly lazy, as was the last few of the previous show (bolivia notwithstanding.)

Hammond should go, May and Clarkson are still OK though...

[james may] thats a load of cock [/james may]

seriously though, why should hammond go? Do you honestly think the show would be better with just may and clarkson? I for one respectfully disagree - the show is about humour and the comedic interaction between the three hosts. Take away hammond and the show is a lot worse straight away. (plus, hammond is the only normal looking one, youve got one guy who dresses like a granny and a fat balding guy)

There I was last sunday all ready and excited about the first episode of the new series. God was I disappointed. It was rubbish. The RR stuff was just to waste time.

The episode on Sunday just gone was much, much better. I really enjoyed the family track day car challenge. Interview was horrific. They really should scrap it. I'd say the only reason they still have it is because the company who make the RPC (i.e. Kia at the moment) might be paying them for the publicity. Otherwise I hate that segment.

Next week's one better be good!!

Right lads, i think it's time you take this to the TG forum.
