Season 1: Episode 7
Hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May purchase three hatchbacks for under £1,000 apiece, then determine which is the most reliable by falling asleep in a very small garage with the engine running.
Does he not know that James wasnt in series 1?

Actually the bit that made me chuckle the most was "some of the finest humor to come from the United Kingdom since Coldplay's last album" - that Chris Martin guy takes himself way too seriously.

And as for his wife, given her acceptance speech at the Oscars, I'd love to be a fly on the wall to see her reaction when Chris tells her how much he really enjoyed the dinner she just cooked him. She'd probably spend half an hour thanking all the people who grew the ingredients, made the utensils, stacked it on the supermarket shelves and delivered it in a refrigerated van etc. Imagine having to sit through that and then having to do the washing up!!!
