@@crosstian look on youtube for the 90's stuff, tiff needell era top gear when it was much more a CAR show than the entertainment/celebs and sports cars stuff. there was a blond woman and mike something was the used car market specialist, Vicki and tiff both worked on top gear, hell most of the guys that later became 5th gear did. it died because Tiff was a twat with someones supercar and wrote it off and insurance refused to payout becuse he ignored the owners instructions if I remember rightly.
Just incase you didn't know where that came from: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oSZLGAuJTLQ.html (Harry Enfield and chums [Paul Whitehouse doing the speaking])
James is the only one I watch this for. The other two started off aknowledging it was a consumer programme but were eventually written into more flamboyant and pretentious characters (don't get me wrong, it works) but they kept James as James and I love him.
It wasn't Captain Cook, he was only the one who made a fuss about it. Same as Australia, if a country had nothing to offer The Dutch pretty much didn't care about it. The Dutch ruled the waves, The Brits only had a bigger Navy, as you would expect with a larger population. The Brits stole everything the Dutch had stolen :P But yeah, 'Brittania rules the waves' sure kid. The Dutch were the Frontier, Brittania followed, pretty much everywhere. 'But be happy with The Falklands, what a claim, spectacular!' Said no one on earth.
That Dutch bike thing looks awesome, & as an Australian you'd have to be up your tree to miss the place, it gets you thinking about an alternate history & it doesn't look so bad.
How much would you love to thrash a bowler round a quarry like Richard does at the start. It would make you feel like a king Also the xjr is the most old school British gangster looking car of them all
www.hemmings.com/blog/2015/01/03/hemmings-find-of-the-day-1966-jaguar-mk10-sedan/ That is a proper gangster car. In fact the Kray twins drove them, and the Krays were EXTREMELY dangerous gangsters. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kray_twins
3:23. It's funny that they tried a Dutch accent, but at the end it sounded more German than Dutch (I'm Dutch myself and our accent is very hard to do in english)
i wish there was somewhere i could watch all the old stuff, amazon prime only goes back to season 6, and all the ones on youtube are high pitched or changed for copyright! DAMN IT!!!!
9:32 I’ve died! Top gear have been so funny they have killed me, meaning I am the first person to be murdered by an undersized gorilla in an ill-fitting suit jacket
Pilote - Turtle (Bonobo Mix) Took me a second. Knew I recognized it. May not be precisely the mix but for anyone else that this annoys not recognizing, here ya go.
WOW! How small the audience was. I was on a 5yr waiting list to go and watch them and never got the chance. when they "Left" i asked for my name to be removerd.
I have a friend who described this show as "Three middle aged men having an extended mid life crisis. How else do u explain the need to berate other people on what cars to drive." Its probably true, doesn't mean the show's not funny
I think it's a little bit ironic that the guys at Top Gear make fun of motorcycles yet make jokes about how their best ever driving experience was from what is basically a motorcycle doing things only motorcycles can do like get literally sideways.
I just love these special moments! Plus these guys, are just amazing.👍👍👍♥👏👏👏 Won't watch the new top gear! Because its just terrible.👎👎👎👎 These guys are the best!!!! 👏👏👏👏♥♥♥ Top Gear isn't top gear, with out these three guys! 😉 All the best, for the future guys👍 Moira From England.
