the Interceptor
I LUV MY PRIUS!!!
Just finished the episode. Well ... this'll take a few words, so bear with me.
Technically, I would have given it an 8/10. A very good episode, but I personally felt a bit underwhelmed. However ... there are two reasons why I felt underwhelmed.
1. I analysed Top Gear very thoroughly within the last weeks, so I approached this episode differently than I would normally have. Let's just say I was "prestressed" when watching this episode, if you catch my drift.
2. I was spoiled by previous adventure episodes. Basically, this was a mixture of the two America specials and Vietnam for me, and therefore "an adventure as usual" (that's a bit harsh though). Since I can not take this into account when rating this episode as I think it would be unfair, this doesn't count either.
So on that basis, I have to give it a 10/10. It's not that it pains me to do so, yet it feels a tad strange to me. But then again, I think that everything I could possibly not like about the episode is with me, and not with the episode.
So 10 it is.
Nonetheless, if I'm brutally honest, I still see myself rather rewatching clips from earlier, more car-oriented seasons than this episode. But that's just me.
