I thought this episode was hilarious, including the "Oh and here comes Stephen Hawkings" line :lol, India dig was cool too, overall great episode.

What seasons would you all recommend I pick up off Amazon? I really enjoy the show but always just catch random episodes here and there and don't really know where to start.

Thanks!

Great episode, and man, that girl was really digging Fassbender. Actually, they alwats manage to put some hotties in the front row.

[DrForester]

[123rl]

Should be a good episode. The guests have been really good this series, and so much better than the usual stars. I really don't like SIARPC but the last couple have had interesting interviews

[jump_button]

Best news part for the series so far

[AngryMoth]

Another solid episode in my book. Aside from the the one from 2 weeks ago, this season has definitely been a step up from the last few years.

[Xun]

Not as good as last weeks, but not a bad episode.

Also the girl behind Matt Smith was fine.

[CHEEZMO™]

I missed it! >:|

iPlayer it is.

[reilo]

The guests have been fantastic.

I laughed really hard at the SAAB owners are architects comment, because I've met people that fit the bill 100%.

Yes you gotta believe the producers intentionally put the hot girls in the shot all over the place on purpose! :P

[XMonkey]

Also the girl behind Matt Smith was fine.

God yes.

[Zanosuke]

Also the girl behind Matt Smith was fine.

Indeed!

[123rl]

Smith made this episode great. I've gone through his two seasons over the last two weeks and it's some of the best Who in a long time. He is the perfect fit for the Doctor.

[Musha_Soturi]

Also the girl behind Matt Smith was fine.

I thought she looked like Hayden Panettiere.

I also thought Matt Smith was a bit of a Hoxton douche.

Haha, yeah their stereotypes (for all the brands) were pretty much spot on.

[Lima]

So the first segment was totally ripped from Top Gear at the movies. Hmmmm

[Foliorum Viridum]

I hate the car vs something else segments. It has nice photography but is boring. I'd rather focus on the rally car.

News was funny. Dr Who was alright, but he seems like a knob to me.

Saab segment was very interesting. Top stuff.

Not as good as last week, but that's to be expected.

[AlphaSnake]

Also the girl behind Matt Smith was fine.

Yo, seriously! I couldn't stop staring.

There was a really chesty and cute chick during the news behind Hammond, as well.

[pj]

I'm slowly skipping more and more of this show. First, "star in a reasonably priced car," aka "15 minutes of filler." Then "the news," aka "7 minutes of forced not funny banter." Then the silly segments, aka let's pretend to be completely retarded for a while. The car vs. some-random-thing segments are no picnic either. I skipped past the end of the rally car vs jet man segment. I'm assuming the rally car JUST BARELY lost out to the dude.

Anything other than the exotic trips and straight car segments is just unwatchable.

[zychi]

What was the name of the episode that had Matt Smith in it? I want to DVR the next airing, because I forgot to do it this time.

e: was it the fifth episode of this season?

It's the 5th episode yeah.

There's 2 more to go.

Holy shit that blonde behind doctor who... DAYUUUUUUUUM GURL YOU FINEEEE MMMM

I do the same thing now as well. I only watched the Maserati vs Merc, and Saab segments this week.

This series SIARPC has been pretty solid.

Exactly. The SAAB segment in particular entertained me, because it actually gives you information about cars, and the amount of choreographed skits and studied lines are kept to a minimum. Just two middle-aged guys chatting about what they liked/disliked about the SAAB brand, what made it unique, and why they and we will/won't miss it.

I still watch Top Gear regularly, but I always just end up seeing only 5 or 10 minutes an episode.

True, the Saab segment was great. Too bad content like that represents about 5% of a typical season.

[Pristine_Condition]

Loved the SAAB segment. My first car I ever bought with my own money was a grey market 900 turbo (one with no intercooler, which, it turns out, isn't a terrific idea in Texas) I bought used off a military guy who brought it in to the country.

I loved that car immensely before it completely blew up on me.

Episode 6 of 7, Series 18:

Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May hit Donington in three stripped-out track cars - the KTM X-Bow, the Morgan Three Wheeler and the Caterham R500. Back at the Top Gear airfield, Jeremy recreates the Battle of Britain in an insane aero-engined Bentley and a flame-spitting retro BMW.

Looking forward to this one.

Lotus F1 driver Kimi Raikkonen is set to make an appearance on the final programme of this season’s BBC Top Gear series on March 11. Raikkonen will take part in the Star in a Reasonably-Priced car segment of the show, driving a Suzuki Liana. In this segment, Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson interviews a celebrity and then they, along with the studio audience, watches a clip of the celebrity driving on the Top Gear track which was filmed earlier. The lap times are then put on a leaderboard. However, there is a separate leaderboard for Formula 1 drivers. Sebastian Vettel, a close friend of Raikkonen in Formula 1, is currently at the top of the Top Gear leaderboard, with a time of 1:44.0. The Top Gear episode airs on BBC Two, Sunday 11 March from 8.00 – 9.00pm.

[AcridMeat]

Just got around to watching it, loved the SAAB segment. I knew a fair amount who fit the SAAB stereotype (family friends had one).

Also love those types of segments because that's when I get tidbits from my dad when watching 'em. Apparently that SAAB turbo was my mom's first car in the country, got it clean from a first owner and then someone rear-ended her the first week.

I'm glad I'm not the only one to think Matt Smith is a bit of a knob, haven't ever gotten into the new Doctor as a result.

[Xun]

Just a reminder it's on again tonight at 8.

[Orgun]

I would love to get my hands on one of those Caterhams.

[CrunchinJelly]

Why has May got Hammond's leather jacket on?

[Bakkuma371]

Love the Brutus. I would let it spit hot oil in my face any day.

[PjotrStroganov]

I think it's the best episode yet.

[DrForester]

Track day segment is fantastic!

[Xun]

Great episode.

Also that Brutus was pretty scary.

[AlphaSnake]

I would love to get my hands on one of those Caterhams.

I would love to get my hands on one of those tatas on the girl during the news segment. Holy mother of God she was stacked and smokin hot!

Oh yeah, and the episode was good too.

Simply Sausages had me laughing. Hahahah

Anyone notice the new 911 when they pulled up at the end?

The only part of the show I skip is the "Star in a Reasonably Priced Car" part. Everything else is awesome IMO. The news segment often spawns some hilarious comments, it's one of my favorite parts.

S16 is on Netflix now as well, for those who haven't seen it.

[El_Chino]

I love how the Stig looks Boss at the end of the spin out haha.

[PjotrStroganov]

I love the way that morgan looks when cornering.

[DrForester]

I love that James can still get a reaction just form saying "Good news...." even though the Sandero thing was about two years ago.

[Foliorum Viridum]

Another good ep.

They're pulling me back. I was seriously down on TG after the India special and the one awful ep of the season, but they've stepped it back up.

Very glad of that, too.

[NullPointer]

Yep. The latest episode reminded me of just what I love about this show. Chemistry, speed and car worship in all of its forms. And just a tad of old school nationalism for laughs.

Its a good thing too because the latest Top Gear US episode left a very sour taste in my mouth.
