Top Gear tomorrow. Start grumping now !!
Just a quick heads up to anybody that fancies getting a head start on being a grumpy old man before tomorrow night.
If you know you're going to be dissapointed by TG tomorrow night, just crack on now and make a head start on how it falls short.
You know you want to and it saves time later.(1)
I'll be watching for much the same reasons as I watch any other comedy show.
A bit of a laugh.
They might even talk cars at one point, you never know.
(1) Or you could just watch something else or maybe even turn the telly off.

Jezza for Prezza. But cos I work weekends it'll have to wait till I watch recording of F1 and recording of the re-run of Moto GP.

the last one of this series will be a funny one, but i'm not going to give it away.
at work we got sent the a health and safety method statement for us to approve. all i will say is it involves ..................
some heavy equipment and a race with some professionals.
it is a bit staged but should be funny.

Terrible show, I keep watching in the vague hope of them doing a proper review of tyre life, fuel economy and cup holder design issues, but all I ever
seem to get is high speed action, crashes and explosions.

Perhaps Clarkson will use the show to openly discuss his (alleged) affair/super injunction?
Some say... he shouts " P-O-W-E-R " when he climaxes

Yeah, some folk like to really knock it, & what they say is often true but I dont have that big a problem. You can see some stuff is very staged
but it is T.V. & that's what so much T.V. is.
If they did a "proper" motoring show where they compared fuel consumption, reliability, servicing costs, road tests of ordinary cars like
1.6 Astras & Mondeos that most folk buy etc it'd be boring as hell & only watched by anoraks!
For all it's faults I'll be watching & enjoying it!

The shows biggest problem is that it WAS so damn good, it was unmissable!
... but then they started to believe their own hype and got the 'comedy' scriptwriters in  They completely lost the balance and over
the course of a couple of season turned a GREAT show into a so-so one.
Bah, humbug!
It's Evolution Baby!

I no longer get stressed about it - I just categorise TG in the same area as all the rest of the carp on TV, and ignore it...
