OK so Clarkson is a 100% prat 99% of the time, but what an excellent, entertaining program tonight !

 

i enjoyed that

 

excellent show tonight. really enjoyed.

 

Loved every minute of it, except Clarkson slagging off the Midlands (again). Good quality show tonight, glad the Range Rover led the way!

 

Top stuff

 

very good episode, goes a long way to redeeming Top Gear's name after that Art Gallery shambles last week!

 

Made me almost pi** myself
Come on he is not having a go at the whole of midlands

 

Torn between tonights episode and the vietnam special from last year, still top TV though.

 

Afew times i could of wet myself but had to resist, this program just makes Sunday's awhole lot better.

Nice one guy's.

 

I owned a Range Rover just like it, and Clarkson was spot on. Mine would cross the Antarctic but it kept breaking down on the way home from the pub.

 

Thought it was staged crap, gets worse every year

 

I like these "road trips" they do. More please!

 

Completely agree there, they are the best they have ever done

 

when he nearly fell down that rock face when passing that car, i would have just wiped the car out.lol

quality program

 

why watch it then ,put some thing else on then you dont have to watch the staged crap you think is on tv.... sorry that strictly come dancing has finished you will see it again soon

i think it was great,then again i do every week its entertaining and makes something to look forward to on a sunday instead of thinking yay im at work the next day

 

I know most of it is staged but i still love watching it. As said above, if you don't like it, don't watch it?! Simples. I think the best bit was the above mentioned pass, you could see the fear in his eyes as he was looking down. I would def not of gone that close to the edge.
Another great episode.

 

I wonder how much is staged...
The cliff face (going up) was on the left as they were driving along (on the LHS of the road), but the sequence when JC nearly went off the edge had the cliff on his right as he was coming towards us - had they turned round ? or just find a good spot for staging the scene ?

If H was genuinely phobic about insects would he really have gone ??

It was still a very entertaining story.

 

Staged or not, you are free to believe what you want, and don't we watch it for entertainment after all?
There's not much factual content in TG any more, but there's always a barrel load of laughs.
As for the cliffside action last night, I thought it was about as real as you can get. But I still don't believe that they would put their star performer (**** or not) at death's door and just carry on filming.
What would they have said if he'd gone over... 'There will be no TG christmas special this year because we allowed the star presenter to die'
Best programme on TV I reckon.

 

apparently they drive on what ever side of the road suits them ,abit like malta when i went there mopeds and taxi going on left or right side of the roads then the big green buses doing whatever with people clinging on where ever they can

 

No wonder you find it funny you will believe anything

 

really good

 

They drive on the left side of the road just on the Death Road itself, so that they can lean out the vehicles and see where the edge is. They drive on the right on all other roads in Bolivia

Yungas Road - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

Thought it was ace!

 

Always enjoy their road trips. Repeated tonight at the same time as well.

 

Tbh i thought that at the begining of the program up to the point when he swore on camera and genuinely paniced (i thought)(if acted give that man a oscar).

I do think the vietnam episode was a much better program none the less last nights show was a good one.

 

Really enjoyed it, best bit of christmas TV (and certainly the best episode in the series)

 

Echo above

 

I really enjoyed it too, as already said it was best part of xmas, well worth waiting for
Still prefered the North Pole episode though

 

I enjoyed it, allthough I was in more danger sat in my armchair, I know for a fact it was filmed at the landrover driving centre at easnor castle, ledbury

 

enjoyed it .but had to laugh when they moaned about how they were struggling in the thin air. what about the poor gits in front of them humping about all that camara and sound gear
