| Well guys, I was just driving up into my local village this morning, and around the corner from my house, I saw James May and Oz Clarke! I got my camera out straight away and thought I was filming, then realised I wasn't, so I started "interviewing" and caught everything you guys wanted to know! Let me just add, Top Gear is 100% back in the 3rd week of October. He also told me that he was on FinalGear this morning before he drove up to Standish, near Wigan from Yorkshire. Also, note in the video that I put the camera down and start having a conversation with Oz, sorry about this, did not want to have the camera shoved in their faces. Also, the pleb who came and started talking to James mid way through is nothing to do with me lol. According to James, he has seen the FinalGear helmet in the office. I also say, see you at series 11 instead of series 12! woops, slight mess up ![]() MESSAGE TO JAMES MAY: On behalf of FinalGear, I would like to say a huge thank you to both you and Oz for sparing a few minutes to talk to me. I'm sure that you can see by the responses below how much your comments about FinalGear have been appreciated. We hope that our "criticisms and feedback" can play a small part in helping Top Gear continue to be the best motoring show on the planet ENJOY!
Transcript: James: Hello FinalGear, I’m not leaving, and I haven’t had quite such a big pay rise as some people imagine Me: And you do use it? And you do go on FinalGear? James: And I do go on FinalGear occasionally yes and we do appreciate your criticisms and feedback....and we do take notice of it *At this point some guy starts telling James about how much he, his wife and child love Top Gear, most of which can be heard clearly with the human ear, I’ll move onto after when James and Oz are stood together* Me: What so, have you just driven up here now, straight from..... Oz: We’ve come over from Yorkshire Me: Oh have you.... Oz: I’ve forgotten where we were.......errm somewhere near Leeds.......and they we’ve been down over Leventhorpe near Castleford and then come over to see what Wigan’s got to offer. Me: Where are you off from here then? Oz: We’re then going back to.....up into The Penines, We’re going back to......(*Can’t make out what he says*), Bradford..Bradfooorrd......out onto the peaks at Tannehill..(*Can’t make out what he says here either, sorry *). We’re avoiding Liverpool at the moment though.Me: Yeah I don’t blame you to be honest James: He’s eating his screwdriver again Oz :I know, It’s a bad sign when the soundman needs his screwdriver, it means he’s worried Me: Well, I’d better leave you to it... Oz: Okay Me: It’s been nice meeting you James: And you Me: I’ll probably see you at series 11 (*I meant 12 *)James: Yeah, hope so Me: Ahh right, see you later, thanks....

If not, I think it would be better to just write the conversation down. Edit: oh, I see. Sorry I asked ![]() Last edited by Elvis313; July 29th, 2008 at 11:06 AM. |

| Thanks for the feedback guys, but how much luckier can I get? Been to Top Gear 3 times, spoke to all 3 of them, received an email off Hammond, interviewed James May in person. I'll try and get Clarkson round for tea next ![]()
