Possibly one of the silliest Top Gear episodes...with the exception of the Amphibious Cars ones

I thought it was slow to get going, but the Eventual challenge was very funny and left me with a sore throat from laughing.

Outrage in New Zealand over frozen penis:
Quote
An icy Top Gear episode showing hosts Jeremy Clarkson and James May drinking and driving has landed the pair in hot water.

The Polar Special, which screened in the UK last year and in New Zealand last month, featured the two drinking gin and tonics while trying to reach the Magnetic North Pole.

The BBC Trust was bombarded with viewer complaints about the episode, which also screened an image of a frostbitten penis.

BBC Trust criticised the show, saying it "could be seen to glamorise the misuse of alcohol".

BBC reports that the shows executive producer defended the pairs behaviour, saying that they were beyond the jurisdiction of drink drive laws, and were actually in international waters at the time.

The trust accepted that neither presenter was drunk or out of control of the vehicle, but said it was "not editorially justified in the context of a family show" at the time it screened.

In relation to the image of frostbitten genitalia, a statement from the trust said there was "a clear editorial purpose for the inclusion of an image of a frostbitten penis, which had been shown for a medical rather than a sexual purpose".
Continue to be awesome you three. :rofl:

Top Gear is no longer a topical motoring show...it has now become 3 men [and a stig] at the pinnacle of cocking about.

Which is why I watch it :D

I couldnt care less about cars, but Top gear is a laugh, and even if I dont know a thing about cars, its still possible to appreciate the design of the stupidly expensive stuff they have on the show.

The only things I dont really like on the show are things like the tracks, too car-y for me!

I think the silly stuff makes it good. The old show was just cars, and Jezza left and the show caved. Then they brought it back, started being silly and now its huge. I think they stumbled upon a great formula by accident.
