The nun driving the monster truck was fucking funny, but I found the hypnotising parts pretty dumb.

Still a fairly good episode though.

Release in a few hours hopefully, if not less. Depends how long it takes some people from my seeders group to get on and help me do the initial seed.

Fell free to seed after you download it, but I only let people I know into the seeders group as it requires giving them access to the file via HTTP. images/smilies/wink.gif

There are a lot of people on various forums, who would love to have just the SLR clip. Full credits and origin of file will be given duly.

Thank you once again for this site and all its files! images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Oh I downloaded just the SLR bit since the whole episode is downloading at only 7KB/s (people please share the file after it is downloaded!) and that was awesome.

Clarkson has never been a huge fan of BMW. If you look back to the early seasons when Tiff and Clarkson were together on Top Gear, Tiff was always the BMW guy, Clarkson was always the Jag\Mercedes guy.

He's been like that for as long as I can remember.

Yeah, i have the full Clarkson "Head to Head" video and at the end you see a race in which tiff is called in to race against in the BMW M5 as Clarkson picks is the Jag to race in (I think it was the XJR, i have to see that video again on my desktop). And all he can do is make fun of BMW thru the whole race..
