Wonderful, as usual!!
I love these 'Boys Own' adventures, and am so happy to be able to 'make the journey' with my favourite boys! I, like most people, will probably never get to cross Africa in a mad old banger, so I feel grateful to team TG for taking me along!!
I loved James 'Widow Twanky' May's intro, and think they should let him do more of the commentry more often.
The car histories were interesting, and brief enough not to be boring, and what great choices were made for entertainment value. I also fell in love with Oliver, but then, I am a girl & in our world it's abnormal not to give a car a name & understand it's personality.

I especially liked Jeremy saying "...drove deeper & deeper into the bush" in an entirely filthy way.
Hammers aplenty! Jeremy is so right about hitting things with a hammer. It can sort any problem.
The map pictures, falling in love with Oliver, comb over, floor shooting, playing ballads to Hammond, cow head, Beetle of doom, all hilarious! The Bodgit & Scarper bodywork made me long to live in a world free of MOT!
But, you know what? Most of all, I felt like I was right in the middle of a piece of AA Gill at his best, without need of a dictionary. The images & filming showed a beautiful place, which took my breath away. Proper shivers went down my spine at how awe inspiring the sunsets & sunrises were, and it made me feel very little in this enormous place. To share somewhere like this with TG3 was a very special experience for me. In a romantic girl way, during the sunsets & moon gazing, I just wanted to reach out & hold Jeremy's hand.
