Haha

Yeah, I didn't get the route either. Maybe they chose a nice route, Afsluitdijk is the nearest piece of engineering they could find.

Great episode! Especially liked the bits around the flower beds because that is really close to where i live and the passage of the afsluitdijk.

Well the Deltawerken look more spectacular to me, especially when shot from the helicopter, but then they would have gone really off the route images/smilies/biggrin.gif

. But it is clever to avoid the Ruhr Area in Germany, but it's just as bad as the randstad really images/smilies/wink.gif

Yeah that would be WAY out of route, and did you notice the honking? As far as I know we don't honk THAT much on the highway..or was it just the camera that did it?

hajj · July 4th, 2005, 05:42 PM

In the randstad you are just used to traffic jams, they don't really bother the people anymore i think, therefore the horn isn't used at all. They probably just edited the sounds in, or it were the Belgium's images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I didnt think that Alfa was very nice. Thought it looked a bit crap. And that indian guy was right, the top of the range mondeo does look pretty damn cool.

It does, especially the new Silver-something edition, wiht the white stripes in the rearlights.

The more arty time consuming stuff is done on the return leg back to the UK when they've got more time to make it look nice. Next time I'll fill you in on why Coronation Street isn't a real place.

Where did you found this? This confirms my thoughts. images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Hey all! This is my first post here, though i've been a member for a while now, and I have to give a big thanks to Viper for ripping these epidsodes!

Wow...wut a great epidsode! Loved the DBR9, sounds magnificent.

Best thing about this episode were the quotables. Some of the stuff they said had me in a fetal position laughing!

Jeremy: "I wonder what the fastest anyone has ever been in a EuroTunnel Train. How tempting is it to just....VROOOMM....NO NO no no no...grow up."

James: "17 hours of being forced to enjoy yourself."
Richard: "YES"

James: "To our future."
Richard: "Stop doing that. Please. You can start doing nautical references if you like."

James: "I really enjoyed our day out together Richard. It's not very often I get to take someone out for a nice dinner."
Richard: "WTF?!?!?" <--- he doesn't actually say this, of course...

Richard: "If you ask me to dance, I'll stab you."

Overall, this episode was just awesome, absolutely hilarious.

Can't wait for the next epidsode!!

I agree, this would be more practical and explain the differences you see. Like on the bridge as someone remarked earlier... Would also know the source.

AxlxA · July 4th, 2005, 07:04 PM

I think this ep is the best one of the season. Loved those quotesKoeing has stated. I laughed so hard when Jeremy was driving in the Eurotunnel train. I didn't even know such trains existed. surely not in the states.

Explorerman · July 4th, 2005, 07:33 PM

Yep, probably the best episode this season. I laughed my ass off the whole way through.
That DBR9 - WOW, now if I can win the lottery I'm gonna get one of those DBRS9's

Manic Moran · July 4th, 2005, 07:39 PM

There is a train called 'Autotrain' which is a seasonal thing from the Washington DC area to Miami.

NTM

tloekke · July 4th, 2005, 08:14 PM

Is it just me or is the DBR9 wearing lipstick?

Nogger · July 4th, 2005, 08:27 PM

haha I loved this weeks show. Even though this is the third time around it was bags of fun. As somebody mentioned the quotes during the trip were really hilarious... Clarkson speeding in the train.. hahaha
