OMG! NOW I CAN'T WAIT! When I saw the new post in my RSS feed, I nearly shat my pants! images/smilies/lol.gif

And the best thing is that there's only 11~ days left, if this had been announced, say a few weeks earlier, the wait would have been even more agonising... images/smilies/tumbleweed.gif

I can't believe they are coming to Canada!

This is going to be an amazing episode. I can't wait to hear which stereotypes he uses of Canadians...because we all know he will. Just like he rips on Americans all the time....

If you want to be really cool, you could combine both into a Top Gear Drinking Game. Introduce your buddies to the best show on earth, but they won't remember anything anyway because they'll be too inebriated.

I would of liked to have known when they would be filming. My guess is that they leave from Iqualuit or Kuujuuak (and yes that is how u spell it). Good to know that they were in Canada, eh?

Their catching alot of flak for this and the African 4x4 segment they filmed. EnviroMENTALists are really pressuring that they are destroying the world because there driving in 4x4's. What do they want them to go to the north pole in? A Prius?

Whats this? Another Fast Lane Daily sighting? Isn't that the 2nd in about 2 months. Not bad eh? SL65 got the showing this time. Good on you!

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


I do like the picture they used for Hammond. Simple B&W photos for Clarkson and May, but none for the Hamster! He gets a 'funny look from Braniac' photo. images/smilies/lol.gif

EDIT: I also like their 'Sunday Times' article on the Volvo story. They show the CNN website. Clever researchers.
