Adge Cutler Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) What airfield are they using for the track? RAF Wroughton... Watched some of it being filmed. Should say Former of course Used to be the home of Princess Alexander Hospital until 1996 when it was closed.. Father in Law was ex Raf and had a back operation there in 1983 when we went to visit virtually every other bed the patients were al in traction...I joked to the Matron that they must all be Rock Apes and she fixed me with a steely grin and said that's exactly who are. !!

sako751sg Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Very enjoyable. Got off to a great start with a Hothouse Flowers gig and carried on at that level. Hammond still grips my **** but thats probably more me than him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twistedsanity Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 It's top gear but with a bigger budget, if it's a choice between that or that wooden yank and the Harris monkey I'm.going with the old mob every time, I enjoyed it a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 watched it... loved it... The ebola track is fantastic especially the not so straight... Top Gear I assume are kicking themselves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger-Mouse Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Well I enjoyed the first episode but the second episode blew it out of the water. Haven't laughed so much in ages. The special forces section was hilarious. That Aston Martin, what a piece of machinery that is. Only part I'm not sure about is "The American". Doesn't really do anything for me. Although topping The Stig was always going to be a tall order. Well done boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Watched it earlier tonight and thought it was brilliant, just no comparison to the replacement that the BBC put on. As someone else has said, 3 mates having a real good laugh and entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattyg1086 Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 I didn't think it was as good as it was when they were on top gear but I will still watch it to see if it improves they seemed to be trying too hard to be funny whereas before it was watching them having fun that was funny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buze Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 I think the acting/banter feels quite a bit more badly-rehearsed than before. The studio one is particularly bad I felt. You can *feel* their are acting now, while you didn't feel that before. It seriously feels like a rather bad sitcom with the canned laughter included. Yes a LOT more money thrown at the show, and that's nice, but I'm definitely not 'raving' about the new version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buze Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 So, catching up on episode 3, a week late. Quite frankly, it's **** now. The made 'hammond' into a 'USA super fan' in a complete caricature of what he was doing before, down to eating Mc Donald's and doing donuts every 3 minutes (that's funny ONCE, perhaps) the whole show looks like it's been re-scripted with bad actors, bad script, and the only thing that still works is the photography ... but JUST barely -- oversaturated greens etc included. Seriously, I'm now very disappointed, from ep#1 that was showing promises to a stupid american grade sitcom of some sorts, with actors that were pretty good when they were playing their own roles, but are now completely out of tune. Thumbs down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistedsanity Posted December 10, 2016 Report Share Posted December 10, 2016 Google "pirate bay proxy" for links, watched the latest episode last night and despite 2 and 3 being a bit naff I feel they have redeemed themselves now, I was in stitches pretty much all the way through, "a cows balloon knot" is my favourite new saying :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
