Top Gear take two

Posted by The Mole at 3:14 pm on Wednesday November 5, 2008

It was filming day at the Top Gear studio for Sunday’s show today  - and after earwigging the rehearsals this morning (and yesterday’s run through in the TG office) it looks like a corker.

The bulk of the show is given up to an epic road trip from San Francisco to Utah, with Richard, Jeremy and James testing some proper American muscle – we told you about this in a blog a few week’s back and you can catch some glimpses of the muscle on our preview vid.

As ever, hilarity ensues – after the last big US trip’s adventures with gunfire, this time they provoke angry locals to pelt them with rocks.

Jeremy’s big test this week is the Fiat 500 Abarth and pop star Will Young is the star in our reasonably priced Lacetti.

He’s been out this morning trying to forget how quick Simon Cowell was around our track – the rumour is he booked a track day last week to practice.

We’ll be down here all day getting in the way so expect more updates before we wrap this evening.

    Just to say that myself, my family, grand-parents and friends are looking forward to the next episode in the happy knowledge that Jeremy will continue to be his normal unrestrained funny self.

    The Daily Mail and its cohort’s fake outrage is being seen for the what it is, an attempt to boost sales with finger-pointing and moral outrage devoid of any truth and honesty.

    Jeremy, rest assured you have all our support and thank you for making sure we all do not take ourselves too seriously!

    Keep up the good work boys..long may you continue!

    Gee, I wish I had known that they were coming to Utah. I would have helped to pelt rocks at them. Anything for a laugh, eh? :-) .

    Personally I can’t get to angry about these things. First off, the last America show was really funny and this will probably be the same. Second, when American sends shows over to England, we make fun of you too… So it all kind of evens out in the end.

    And before anyone thinks badly of me, I voted for Obama.

    I remember reading Jeremy’s story in the Sun about the road trip between Cali and Utah. I loved it. Jeremy, you handled the whinging Richard alot nicer than I would’ve. Turning up the radio to drown him out was great. I would’ve said, “Richard! It’s a long walk to the nearest airport from here!” and dropped him off. I know I’ve just seen the southwest of America a few months ago (great memories and beautiful scenery), but I’m really looking forward to seeing it again and how the guys handle another yank road trip. ;)

    Looking forward to it already :) Surely though, on the last road trip the locals were hurling rocks? or was this dubbed?

    What might be interesting, if potentially expensive, for the next US roadtrip, if the lads were to purchase a car in Britain for say £500, ship them to the states, and drive them across the US Continent (or at least a few hundred miles) still GB reg’d/taxed/motd. Possibly in cars that were never officially available in the states. Just for the craic and sheer unavailability of parts :) .
    James I’d say would go for something like an XM or Rover 600. Richard might go for a Nissan Terrano2 / Ford Maverick to fit in with the SUV crowd. Jeremy might find a ropey Calibra or high mileage 406 coupe.

    I remember reading about NI. Italian motor club doing something similar in a Panda and a new Fiat 500.

    Rule #1. If you _tell_ us hilarity ensures, it invariably doesn’t.

    “Eddie Murphy is in a fat suit and his girlfriend is keeping a penguin in the flat, with hilarious consequences”.

    Exactly. Just film the boys being the boys. No hokey setups. No over-writing. They are funny enough as it is without you trying to _make_ it funny.

    Reviewing the Abarth 500 isa great idea, but i think they could have made it much better by having BOTH new Abarths on- the Abarth 500 and Abarth Grande Punto.

    That or they could have a hot-supermini knockout like the hot-hatch shootout from series 6! Pit the Abarth 500 againt the new RenaultSport Twingo 133 and New Mini Cooper S JCW!

    Still, i’ll definately be tuning in to the show on Sunday :)

    P.S- We gotta know the GT2’s time!!!!!

    This is sounding promising, I’ve been looking forward to this trip since it was filmed and now there’s a Fiat 500 Abarth to look forward to as well :D (and I’ve been looking forward to that since Fiat first said they’d be reviving the 500).

    And while I’m here – Jeremy, please keep doing what you’re doing – ignore all the pointless hype and stupid press over-reaction (as I’m sure you will) and keep making the vast majority of TG viewers laugh. It’s all been a lot of fuss about nothing. PS: hope your bum’s fully recovered ;)

    the first episode was okay, i mean the trucking thing felt a bit underdone, i didn’t understand the point of them driving through things and deliberately putting themselves in danger, usually topgear comes up with challenges that you expect, and other challenges that you don’t expect but have a point buried under the cover, but the trucking one is just silly. I think in Jeremey’s review of the lambo should of had richard more involved as the antithesis to the gallardo, and not just as porsche 911 fanboy. Yes there were some funny bits but it was overshadowed by the pointlessness of the program the great thing about topgear it always managed to get facts in along with comedy, but that time they failed.

    adizorz didn`t understand the trucking thing, probably in the same way he doesn`t understand why lorries drive around roundabouts taking up most of the road,so he will not end up under the back wheels.

    It sounds much much more of a handful to squeeze in one episode now. I hope this is as entertaining or better than the previous American road trip (not like episode 1).

    If it’s going to be anything like the previous episode (read: utterly pointless programming), the future of Top Gear is going to be bleak.

    I thinks its a safe bet, that the majority of this episode will be the american muscle car segemnt.

    How can a quality tv show like Topgear contain the most poor pieces of tv, namely the special guest segments. Its the worse thing on the BBC, even considering the Brand and Ross fiasco.

    Although I guess displeasure and sheer disgust that is Jermey clarkson, comes a close second.

    I’m starting to feel that fifth gear is becoming the better show now days.

    P.S GT2 lap time please!

    Just went to the SEMA show here in vegas today. It should be called the Nissan GTR and Dodge Challenger showcase extravaganza.Almost every exhibitor featured one of these two cars. The general consensus among the participants I spoke with are not excited about the new administration about to take over the country. Nobody seems to know how to make a car that runs on good intentions yet. As one of Clarkson’s great unwashed Americans, I must say I owe him and Top Gear a debt of gratitude, as I am now able to discuss the minutae of several of the worlds supercars ad naseum with people who just stopped to look at the pretty wheels.And Jeremy, as soon as we can get the mexicans in southern california you talked about to pay off their bank loans, maybe the credit crunch will be over. BTW the American portion of the site is awful, is it only updated once a week? I don’t even bother with it, just come straight here.

    come on guys! Be nice to us! we love your show too. Hell i love you guys!

    I’ve lived in the middle of the pacific almost my whole life and I still do, and i’ll admit, I don’t like the mainland at times. Not my favorite place to be but sometimes i just go with the flow.

    I do hope you guys had fun in America, even if it isn’t what you guys make of it. But then again, in any foreign country, it’s not what it is at all.

    As long as you’re all alive and kicking, that’s all that matters.

    Jeremy, have fun and trash talk all you like. Just be careful and try not to get killed. I need you alive for the next show.

    Hamster, try not to argue too much. You might loose or if you win, let the cheering go on.

    James, truth is, your going to need a rubber band to pull your hair back. It’s hot in LA and since your going though Arizona (from my guess), you’re going to die from the heat. All in all, it didn’t look like you got a hair cut at all! Not that I’m complaining, I did like it.

    Keep it up boys.

    I must say Hamster your hair is getting pretty bad. Maybe you should spend less money on getting your teeth whiten and get a hair cut? Or maybe your trying to grow it into james may’s style?

    well whatever it is keep up the good work guys!

    As I don’t read the papers I had to Google what the Daily Mail had been saying about last weeks show,well it turns out they were moaning about the comment made about lorry drivers killing prossies,lol. I bet the guy who wrote the article doesn’t even watch or like T G or are trying to use it to get them selves noticed. If they did watch it they would find out that is Jezza’s sense of humour, but there and facts in his comments as the Yorkshire ripper was a lorry driver and so was steve wright they both killed prossies, it amazes me what some people will complain about, if you dont like it then dont watch we love love this show its the only show i watch religiously in fact we call it church because of that and the fact that it is on sundays lol.SO LEAVE ARE CHURCH ALONE !!!

    This is, literally, an email just to say my 6 year old son and I both love the show in all it’s glorious non-PC-ishness. (Although he doesn’t express it in quite that way).

    I am really looking forward to the USA show this weekend along with the rest of the regular viewers. I still wet myself laughing over the cow on the roof incident.

    One note of discord however. I hope to never see the “dragged through the hedge backwards despite my gleaming gnashers” stylings of Mr. Hammond ever again. GET A HAIR CUT. Even my wife doesn’t like your hair, and she’s a woman and everything.

    SHame about the complaints you got, but to me, it was quite easily a joke. It wasn’t a feeling jezza had in his heart. Besides, it was only 188 people who complained out of 7 million viewers. Likely these 188 are ones whop couldn’t find their remote to turn over to Strictly come dancing on the other side.

    As I sit here in the middle of the US-of-A, Littleton Colorado (to be more exact) I’m always a little sad that it’s so easy to poke fun at Americans…and sometimes deservedly so. But on the other hand how funny would it be to find some non-hillbilly, non-gun totin’, non-rock throw’in (I have to take your word on that one…we’ll see that particular show next year at best) non-overweight, non-SUV drivin’ normal folks. Sigh…not all of us thought Palin was a good idea. I do enjoy the show a lot (so do my wife and our teenaged sons), and hope BBC America will start showing up to date ones soon. Keep up the good work…challenging the status quo, and close held perceptions is good for the soul…and good for a laugh or two.

    omg what is all the fuss about a couple of strictly come sequins fans couldnt find the remote & complained & now its another scandal jezza must sacked blah blah blah. Grow up it wasnt ment to be offensive it was a joke if it offended you accept the apology & dont watch it again , top gear is one of the few programs worth paying the licence fee for ,jezzas outspoken nature & willingness to speak out if he thinks somthing isnt right are one of the many reasons millions of us all around the world love the show. Keep up the good work the world would be a dull place without you guys. From a believer in freedom of speech!

    Yeah well, anyone watch the cut out news bits? Everything he said I understood, including the bits about the Burr Brown DAC (Digital-Analog converters) and dual sampling and 96KHz and all that rubbish. And being American, I must say, some Infinitis are quite nice indeed, if not German, they can at least match some of the best Lexus has to offer sometimes. Also being American, I’m looking forward to what might just not be Americana hate, but might still be entertaining.

    Episode one wasnt as good an opening to the season as had been expected, nonetheless it was watchable. And by the looks of things episode two will be pretty much dominated by the american muscle car segment, so who knows?

    P.S. What was the lap time for the 911 GT2?

    Why, oh why do the anally retentive, ignorant, politically correct excuses for the species we pathetically call the human race have to get so uptight about a few consanants and adjectives that some overly tall bloke strings together and broadcasts on a show on BBC2 on a Sunday night??? Do the rectums of society really have nothing better to do than complain about a program that they accidentally found whilst trying to find the I’m a trainee a!£$&*%e channel???? DO ALL THE T.G FANS A FAVOUR AND GO JUMP!! I don’t care what you jump off just do it and stop ruining some peoples’ fun and factual entertainment. It’s not like it’s harming anybody. After all, weren’t most of us taught as kids that “sticks and stones will break my bones BUT WORDS WILL NEVER HURT ME”.
    Therefore, if you don’t like it or you happen to be anally retentive,ignorant or just a pathetic excuse for a human being then there are a couple of things you could do.
    1) Turn your television of and finish polishing your tongue for monday mornings bottom licking session at the office.
    2) Get a life of your own and stop interferring in mine! thankyou.

    Non posso credere che capitano lento è andato più veloce della velocità degli “smanettoni” che è Jeremy Clarkson. Cosa c’è di sbagliato con il mondo in questo momento? Sono profondamente scioccato, veloce prendere capitano lento in ospedale!

    Well, it’s not related to the article but everyone else keeps mentioning it.
    Jeremy has accused anyone and everyone of being a murderer. And then he accused someone of having a giant nose. And neither of them seemed annoyed in any way, (this was at TG live on Saturday) they just laughed.
    I would have to write a letter of complaint if he stopped insulting everyone and shouting random murder accusations.
