Good stuff, not much studio stuff but I guess they had loads of film to get through. I liked their jab at the "oh my god that's fake that's not real!" idiots at the start.

I predict a flood of "naked James in a 6 point harness" avatars here. The cars sounded orgasmic in the tunnels.

Wasn't it FABULOUS?
My favourite bit has to be the tunnel symphony. That is really bringing us something that most of us wouldn't have the opportunity to hear anywhere else...

NOBODY can say there was not enough car in this programme.

A HUGE thanks to all crew for a wonderful start to S10.

And a special thanks to Jeremy for being delicious!!

It was great, I just felt like the top gear we know and love, before the cocking-about-season we just had.
Just to bad they used that AMV8 vantage instead of a F430 challenge stradale and it was a shame they didnt restore the cool-wall but hey, maybe in a later episode.
Otherthan that, great ep, can wait for the rest of the serie.

Loved it, Stelvio in a Gallardo must be heaven!

And accusing FG of burning down their props barn, LOL. Jeremy's new seat is ugly, James and Richard's are ok.

Right, couldn't that ghastly jacket of Richard's been torched by 5th Gear instead of the Cool Wall? Great Show- looks like James lost some weight for the "naked" filming.

Did anyone else think, that beside the fact it was rubish as a car, the Aston didn't even look nice. Like a toad with skin disease.
I just hope James didn't catch it by sitting in it (half) naked. That almost made me cry with laughter.

lol that was slightly disturbing! great ep and i am quite interested to know what Jeremy can do while driving a car(they talked about this in the news.) It caused some laughter and i already have a few ideas

Loved the Fifthgear stuff!!And the cool wall a sad sight.

Once again "Top Gear:Ambitious but rubbish"!!!! lol

I guess it wasn't out yet at the time they filmed it. Otherwhise they would certainly have. And it would've kicked the other's ass, just like the 430 did when they drove to the Millau bridge. 8)

I definately think they should bring back the cool wall. It's the only bit of studio audience interaction, and over the years has made for some really funny TV.

The news item which they cut about what else they could do whilst driving... refer to the 'pulling off' at motorway services. That should give you a good enough idea!

So Fifth Gear what do you say to that arsonists and copycats, tut tut.........

Excellent episode, the news was hilarious as was James experience in the Aston The Golf review was very good, what a butt ugly car it is though........

Richards jacket was cool and I want to know what brand it was. James hair looks like straw though, FG missed that when they torched the barn.

No way, saw that thing at Britcar and it looked fantastic!


Anyway, what a great episode! However, the Africa episode looks very very good indeed!
