So another season is finished, cant say it was one of the best ones imo, some good segments (episode 2 was pretty good with the 17 year olds car challenges/lambo sv, macca f1 vs veyron) and some not so good (VW ads in tonights ep for example). All still watchable though.

What the hell was with the ending though?! That was weird as... Thoughts?!

Jaimz

havnt seen the last one yet.....


but this series pretty much sucked compaired to the last few....

I wanted to see the bit with the stig facing up to a t-rex which they showed at the start of the series in "whats to come this series" but oh well

The last segment was, bizarre, but I enjoyed it immensely.

Zpyder, the T-Rex segment was shown a few weeks back, something about how they normally drive angry dinosaur like cars around the track and wanted to do something different if memory serves.

Last top gear ever?

Unlikely id say

Considering the beeb announced the next series will be proceeded by the Italian Job Special, Do not think it will be the last.

loved the thunder from down under. deffo want one of them!

certainly felt like he was trying to tell us something like that. my thoughts were that theyre being made to focus on the reviews and not so much of the silly stuff. i cant see any of them being interested in that though.

the VW ads thing was just painful. it was either scripted or a total wind up.

Clarkson nearly quit because of all the silly stuff a couple of seasons back, so getting back to the cars seems more likely to be the way they want to go.

As Nige says, theyre coming over to Belfast to drive down our shiny new sewer system in an Italian Job remake, so its not the end of Top Gear.

It was pretty emotional though.

Dont forget this series did have Ken Block

I know I saw a it last week I think, or the week before where they had the cars driving around a bunch of dinos, but not that particular stig moment, will be gutted if it was on during the 30 secs I missed while out of the room

It was, I distinctly remember seeing it in an actual episode. It was nothing special, just that one shot.

Bah

I had kinda hoped it would be their way of replacing the stig if they wanted to now its out that its Ben Collins (or is it?) - Would be a good way to go, eaten by a t-rex.

Ill put my hand up and admit that I watch top gear mostly for the sillyness rather than the cars.

Im surprised no-ones mentioned the the Stig is actually Schui joke; that was a good laugh for a few minutes.
