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.

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.
