I'm nearing the end of my marathon rewatch in preparation for the new season, and I've noticed that some of the people the TG team position near the stage in the studio segments are remarkably distracting.

Now, I have no idea what criteria they use to decide who gets to be on camera, but in the SIARPC segment with Mark Wahlberg there's a girl just behind him who volunteers that she has a brazilian. :blink:

Now she's all I can see when I watch it.

Anybody else experienced this? Who has distracted you so completely that you missed the main bit entirely?

Every time Jesus shows up... how could you not get distracted when the Son of God shows up to your favourite car program?

I wonder though, why they've never had Jesus in the SIARPC segment. He's been famous long enough, he was like the original celebrity.

I dunno, Helen of Troy gets pretty close....though she was more of a socialite.

Yeah, the Jesus segments were funny... for some reason I always forget what episode they're in, and Jeremy is doing the news and suddenly shouts "Jesus is here!". :lol:

From the Top Gear of the Pops episode, the girl during the News who yells "I love Phil Collins" and Jeremy's reaction to it are priceless.

Let's make this a screenshots thread so that we don't have to reference the whole Top Gear collection every time someone mentions a scene :D
