But there is legislation saying you can use a song as long as its for satire Time for TGA to change a bit

That being said I gave the episode another 7.

I did like the ad thing. But I'm also of the opinion that they do have a news segment soon, especially considering the rather important events that are going on in the motoring world.

Gave it a 6. Steve's RS6 review was great- Solid story and GREAT driving. Consistently, his reviews are the best bits on the show I think. Everything else (especially SIABSC) is meh. Either too short (Kia Soul) or pointless (drifting the odd vehicles).

They are really starting to hit their stride.

Thank gawd there's no more Charlie.

Just watched E2&E3 and there is much more of the Top Gear vibe now than in S1.
