08x06 is one absolutely crazy episode. I mean, how can Jeremy set fire when he's only boiling some potatoes? Hahaha.

One more thing, I can't really remember how that Brian bloke looked like, I keep looking the background of his, the black haired girl behind him is just looking so aston-like. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

OMG I haven't laughed that much in a long time. Very funny episode. James May hitting the concrete post. And Clarkson setting fire to their caravan burning it down and Hammond burning down the caravan next to them. Hilarious all the way around!

Wait, why wouldn't you bring your AK-47 on a camping trip? I always do, there's bears in them woods, and I'm sure Dorset or wherever has tons of bears. images/smilies/wink.gif Loved the ep btw, so far what they haven't managed to sink they have burned.

get the 700 meg version, the 350mb version is absolute garbage.

I thought it was funny with the muscle car part...i really cannot wait for the new muscle cars to come out (the new GMs, challenger, ect...) I already got to see the challenger in the flesh, it is as beautiful in person as the picture.

Excellent. Getting the 3 car reviews out early so they could begin mucking about with F1 cars and carivans. However, the fire was a bit much. There's no way it wasn't a totally planned setup. It kind of detracts from the realism of the show. * the crash into the pillar however was real.. HAHAHA

That was rubbish and pathetic, but funny in a British schoolboy humour sort-of-way.

I was laughing and annoyed at the same time. We're starting to see bits of old-grumpy-man syndrome here, or perhaps we're seeing the effects of all the painkillers Jeremy has been taking.

I don't think the fire was set up, seemed to be more like the carwash fire, a happy accident. Yes, they needed a finale, but I imagine that thing was fairly flammable already and they started the neighbour on fire too, which couldn't have been intentional.
