Yeah, but that's not top gear.


I like Top Gear. I like Jeremy Clarkson. But then I do tuck my shirt into my jeans.

Here's Jeremy Clarkson's shite that he writes for The Times-

I just had a quick flick through and feel really queasy.

It doesn't matter how you look at it - if this is serious he's a grade-A cheese, and if he's taking the piss he's it's not funny. Same as Top Gear.

When it first came out with it's revised format it replaced a tired, dreary, cliched programme and was funny at times. By now, it's regurgitating the same crap every programme and becoming the tired, dreary, cliched programme that the original was.

CAR CRAP

Bumped for Speedie.

NC. Even when I disagree with them I am still entertained. Driving the Peel p50 through the BBC offices was brilliant.

"Roush's modifications have made the chassis %35 percent stiffer. And frankly, so am I."

They have acknowledged that the show has gotten bloated and promised to trim a little fat this season.

I saw the one where they drove through Africa the other day, along the Zimbabwe border.

Pretty amazing.

I don't drive, and even I can enjoy this show.

Big WF.

Immensely entertaining show. Clarkson is immensely entertaining. He is also a massive penis with a perm. The perm is forgivable, perhaps even lovable in certain circumstances. However, the penis still stands.

I know someone who was involved with some of his printed work. Without going into details, without sympathetic editing his columns would make for an interesting and undoubtedly immensely entertaining body of racist literature, Clive James writing travelogues for the BNP, perhaps.

Though even ignoring his ditzy bigotry, I would not dream of putting Clarkson's words in the same league as James'.
