I thought it was ... good.. not very special-like, i mean the tasks they had to do were better in the other special-episodes.
Why are they driving up that mountain? In the Vietnam special for example they got a challenge (buy a cheap set of wheels and then acquire what the americans failed to do go from Saigon to Hanoi or so..
In the india special they don't get any challenges and use their 'improving english-indian exports' as a lame excuse for everything. The party they throw was very odd (just a lot of embarrassing-top-gear-failing.. i don't like that), and the food-race against the train was also not that good.
But i have to say the parts where the boys are on their own (cocking about), like the campfire (i laughed my ass off when James told the fictive story about him "doing it properly"
), the race up the hill and the modifying parts are very very good.
Overall 7/10.... but: i'm gonna watch it a second time right now.
(Was Andy Wilman driving the Follower-Car? Am i the only one to think he should get an inside-camera too?)
I recommend watching "Jeremy Clarkson - Motorworld INDIA" first (just google it, it's 23 minutes long), and afterwards the Top Gear India Special. Makes it a lot better.
