Jeremy Clarkson Meets the Neighbours

^ Hmm, interesting... although that quote is a little off.

It says it's pure weed, whereas a spliff is usually a mixture of pot and tobacco. :p
 
Well I seriously doubt it was actually pot he was smoking... can you imagine how much it would take for a joint that big? :p

And as for showing you supposedly smoking pot, I guess it's okay since I've seen plenty of American shows do that. In fact, I've actually noticed about half the shows I watch have dealt with pot or at least shown it at some point.

Not depictions of smoking fake joints, but real ones, therefore not in a fictional show, but what if a news crew did a documentary in jamaica and filmed regular ppl there smoking real pot, or going to an inner city slums and filming real junkies shooting heroin into their arms.

Are there legal issues to airing real drug use on tv?
 
^ Well I have absolutely no clue... I was just saying there's no way the thing Jezza had was real, so it wouldn't matter the rules anyway.

It would make sense that if it's legal in the country where they do it, it should be okay. But not all laws make sense, so I don't know. But I know Anthony Bourdain drank bhang lassi in India. :cool:
 
Can anyone tell me the song that's playing when Jeremy is gone gliding in Germany? Heard it in a beachclub once and just figured out where I heard it before.
Btw, I'm new to FG... so greetings to everyone. I hope this is the right Forum to ask this. :blush:
 
On behalf of the Dutch people I would like to apologize (or is it apologise? Sorry, still not sure) for the speed cameras.
 
"2. Belgium - home of penguin dressing weirdos and the (shit yourself rich, champion pipe smoking, etc)

*penguin dressing weirdos.....euhrm....not so much.

*most boring sports in the world , definate YESS..... I live in a rural part of belgium, you wouldt believe the stuff people get upto here on weekends..... lets see :

-pigeon flying (basicly you put em in a box ,ship em of to spain or france where they are released and then wait around for them to come back, whoevers flying rat comes first wins......i live next to one of these 'pigeonsetters' as they ar called....every sundaymorning I wake up to the sound of more of his idiot freinds talking realy loudly at 6.00 AM waiting for the bloody birds to finaly show up at 02.00 PM....
-bird singin contests, you put em in a box and count the numer of times they sing...
-cock singin contest,(the male chicken not the audi driver) basicly same thing as with the birds...
-donkey racing ,I think that speaks for itself...
-Card playing contests.... not poker or anything mind you....some sort of ancient card game called 'troef' witch rules apparantly you can only understand when your over 60...

However its a well defined portion (only to bad its a rather large one) of the population still at this stuff...
Most if not all people playing above games are so backward and sheltered they often live their entire lives without ever leaving their own communities, be interested in anything else then above mentioned folkloregames, and spend much MUCH time being afraid of anything and anybody they don't know (witch offcourse tends to be alot if your not interested in anything else than weird stuff with birds).... 'the internets'? ow yeah! thats good for checking the pigeon scoring!...GOD.....and they call me the weirdo for driving a truck, wearing a cowboyhat and talking about shotguns alot......

*and ppl who hate living in their own country :

YESS , YESS , definate YESS, if not at the least for being in a village filled with above mentioned idiots....
 
...and they call me the weirdo for driving a truck, wearing a cowboyhat and talking about shotguns alot.........

Sounds like you would fit right in with the people I live around. And I am in the deep south of the US.
 
By the way if anyone is looking to download these off one of the FTP sites, make sure you get the originals which are in WMV format and three times smaller than the re-encoded ones. I downloaded a gig's worth of the AVI's before discovering my mistake.

The deeply religious stuff is only fabrication really. I only know two people that attend church fairly regularily and they only do it for the social aspect.

Some of the older people maybe but even then it is mostly the black community.They are the ones with the fishes and the Jesus saves on their cars. Or the WWJD (what would jesus do) but if you confront them and ask them exactly what would jesus do, they never have an answer. Even the clerk where I work who is suppose to be a preacher, I caught watching porn at work.

Personally, I would probably burst into flames if I stepped inside a church.

Even the last five weddings I attended were not held in a church.

In the old days the bible thumpers may have been true, but I think television has pretty much killed all that off.
 
Point of information:​

On behalf of the Dutch people I would like to apologize (or is it apologise? Sorry, still not sure) for the speed cameras.

Both spellings are correct; but in British English "apologize" is archaic and "apologise" is the usual spelling - as I say both are correct. The Americans perfer their zzzz's in words so use the former spelling exclusively.

Ok during the France ep, fastforward to 7m30s Clarkson says this in the restaurant:

Now, what i'd like is a sandwich in a sort of triangular cellophane wrapper, and some of Jeanie's panties, and a big bowl of oven ready chips.

I'm sorry but panties is what we call 'knickers' in the US, what is this, slang for some kind of british motorway snack?

If it was Julie's panties (and I think it was), I think it might be a reference to Julie's Pantry, which is indeed a (now defunct) British motorway catering chain.
