You can tell these three guys are true friends: no matter what happens to them, be it a vehicle accident or getting sick, they will always, ALWAYS kick each other when they're down :D
@@ozmobozo The two are not mutually exclusive. I only consider two people in my life true friends. Both of them I ridicule when things are serious and stand by when things are tragic.
@@ozmobozo The funny part about this all, they all 3 despise eachother. Hammond and May combined owned 35% of Top Gear, Clarkson owned 44% of Top Gear, and the BBC owned only 11%. Hammond and May didn't quit their jobs, they took their show elsewhere. The BBC had to buy Jeremy Clarkson's 44% of ownership from him in order to Fire him. It cost the BBC millions of pounds to fire Clarkson.
@@joeprinsen1717 its simple to figure out, they named it outtakes so it draws people to watch as they will think they haven't been aired on the tv show which they have, it's a fake name to get more views which then makes them more money
The first one reminds of Germany. You go by bike after you had a few drinks, and if you had a few too many, you can loose your drivers license even though you are on a bike. You could push it or go by foot entirely, that would be okay, but if you ride your bike, it is possible to loose your drivers license. However, after that you are still allowed to use your bike. Funny thing is also, that you can get prevented from getting a license in the first place if you had been riding your bike drunk.
I keep re-watching these TG highlight collections. Such wonderful TV. I was in the pub yesterday having a pint and a Sunday roast and the latest episode of the current TG was on. God it was awful. Young guys with muscles and beards and/or shaved heads giving each other the bro' treatment, talking bollocks and laughing at each other's dreary remarks. I know I'm an old git, but it really was tripe.
I'm a youngish git (about to turn 32) and I'm completely with you. What a waste of a television show Flop Gear is - glad it's seemingly dying right now! (well wishes to Freddie Flintoff all the same)
Richard going through what the woman cod be other than pretty is fucking hilarious. I love these 3 guys together. Top gear is best series ever during their run.
The first "news" is also here in germany: When you ride your bike drunken and the police controls you, you lose your license for a month. But you are still allowed to ride your bike.
Over many weeks now, mainly weekends, I've been watching all series of this Top Gear from beginning to end on BBC iplayer. I finished the last one today, sadly. R.I.P.
The bit at the beginning about drink driving - it is the same on our country. If you are busted drink driving a bicycle, you loose your car driving license, but obviously you can still drive the bicycle, cause there is no official bicycle driving licenses.
I don't drink much. I want to drink in a pub with Richard. Jeremy and James have to be invited obviously. It would be one of the best nights ever to be always remembered.......
Always regardless of what people think of them in other ways like say Jeremy being controversial ha ha and pissing certain people off which I admire actually. Where I am leading too is the sheer chemistry these men have together. More shows on tv would be more entertaining if they used these men as a template to create other shows I feel. For me there is a big raft of tv shows that have people I can't relate to or care about. These three are always funny silly and entertaining all in one. That is surprisingly rare in the modern tv climate I feel.
An *excrescence* is either a distinct outgrowth on a body, resulting from abnormality, *or* an unattractive or superfluous object or feature. Perfectly good English word.
it may be perfectly real and good, but contextually sensical it was not. Leave it to a former writer to be such a word nerd to use an obscure and complicated word out of the blue when communicating with the average people that make up the general public.
@@moogle68 I'm an average person and went to a bog-standard comprehensive - I understood excrescence as soon as I heard it. What surprised me was that three people who have all worked in journalism, and one of whom was educated at a public school, apparently *didn't* know what it meant.
@@decodolly1535And the average person thinks he's smarter than the average person. Pretty sure even those with english as their first language had to google the fk out of excrescence anyway. Just use simple words if you have to get a point across.
Hi there, Im Francois Bancon, the General Manager, Exploratory and Advanced Planning Department, Product Strategy and Product Planning Division, Nissan Motor Company Limited. Nice to meet you!
Who would have thought three middle-aged men sitting around in the middle of a crowded studio talking vaguely about motoring would achieve such *glory*
8:46 Yeah right, a French car that does something based on electrics/electronics... Pull the other one mate. * Information Based on an electrically faulty Peugeot, Citroen, another Peugeot a Renault and now another Peugeot. Yes I did learn my lesson eventually, no I won't buy another French car ever again.
I think he means nuclear power plants to produce the electricity needed to power the grid electric cars would be using to charge. More efficient, a lot safer, and far less toxic waste.
@@ashjose7973 well this is exactly why more research needs to be done into it. We have proof of concept on a larger scale with submarines and ships. Much like we did we combustion during the industrual revolution. Its now just a matter of refinement.
@@jgreenberg No, it would be a logistical nightmare. There’s a critical mass needed for a fission reactor, just not possible to refine for a car. Every mechanic would need a security check and various radiation protection. And what about intentional sabotage, a car fire just turned into a dirty bomb.
And to think, Heston Blumminstupid did nothing to save Little Chef, cos it went belly up in 2018, they didn't even last until the borisedemic to conk out and die... :P
