    maybe it's just me.
    i don't get the fuss.

    clarkson, a cock who once wrote in a national newspapare that he'd happily string up some wire in his village to get rid of bikers... another short dude who can't talk without sucking in a whole wad of air at the end of his sentences, and some hairy left over hippy! (who's not even here?! maybe he alone realises they're just glorified car show presenters?!)

    i'd go to check out some of the cars in the exhibition tho'.

    perhaps.
    just think they're over-rated, and i don't get the hype, is all.

    so is just about every rock band, actor and athlete (esp. soccer players, and every american 'athlete') in the world - doesn't stop people from enjoying themselves by watching/participating with them

    Went to the 5pm show this afternoon.

    Had excellent seats near the centre aisle. So got to watch Clarkson & Hammond up close as they did their audience participation segment.

    Thoroughly good fun. Would go again if it ever comes back to NZ.
    The greatest pleasure of my recent life has been speed on the road. . . . I lose detail at even moderate speed but gain comprehension. . . . I could write for hours on the lustfulness of moving swiftly.

    Mr. Clarkson is my favorite political commentator to be honest.
    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)

    Indeed - his articles in the timesonline (not the car ones - the state of the world ones) are brilliant.

    I'm a great fan of Jeremy Clarkson. He's amusing, provocative & outrageous. But as a serious commentator on politics or anything else? Puh-lease!

    PS: I enjoyed the show.

    I said he was brilliant - not serious.

    Serious - he is not.

    Sadly tho' - I do think he would do a better job of running the UK than their current PM.

    Fair enough, we all enjoy different things.

    The success of Top Gear is that it is zany, full of unexpected things. The three presenters represent different attitudes to cars thereby covering a wide audience. Something for everyone. And they are clever.

    Racing an aeroplane from London to Geneva(?), playing conkers with caravans, driving through the Deep South with gay liberal slogans on their cars....

    Would people please stop saying that! I hear it like 50 times a day now. Can't people say anything original anymore? Why, all of a sudden, have people decided to be honest? Do they usually lie?

    That's a good point, to be fair.
