The Official "The Grand Tour" Thread.

Mine too. The one of them touring the south when they got run out of alabama was probably my favorite special of theirs.

 

I thought the Vietnam special was pretty funny

 

That was a good one too! Wasn't it Clarkson who used a collinder for a helmet in that one?

 

If we were ranking specials I go:

1) Vietnam (Epic scenery and camera work)
2) Bolivia (Funniest)
3) Africa - (Source for the Nile)
4) Patagonia
5) Burma (Lorries)
6) North Pole
7) Africa - ("Oliver!")
8) Middle East
9) USA - (South Road Trip)
10) India

 

Next year they can take the Tacoma, ZR2, and the Ranger stock and do all the epic passes in Colorado or moab, could be a good show

 

That would be pretty damn fantastic.

 

it was May

 

Thanks

 

The north pole was funny. May sitting on the bumper dumper and Clarkson starts driving.

 

CLARKSON!?!?!?!?

 

Jeremy the big ape

 

I'd actually rank both of the Africa specials much higher on the list. The first Africa special (OLIVER!) is probably my favorite, with Bolivia a close second and the 2nd Africa special in 3rd. Beyond that most of mine line up with the rest of your list.

 

Who doesn't love Oliver? The little car that could!

 

I also like it because there's no contrived mishaps along the way (mysterious fires, vehicles very obviously being pushed off a cliff, etc), just "You're here; you need to get to here" and the 3 of them larking about as they go.

 

My wife and I just saw last week's TGT episode while we ate dinner last night... and paris hilton. She actually reminded me of a line from the 2nd SNL Bush/Gore debate parody "It seems like you're highly coached, or highly medicated."

Regardless... her face still pisses me off.

 

Feed the World special is great bollacks!!!!!!!!! They are really are working it out now it’s just like old top gear. Now we have to wait till next season

 

Looking forward to it!

 

Oh crap this is the last episode of the season already?
I am in the process of hooking up my new sound system on the main tv, so ill watch it tomorrow night once thats done and test out the new speakers

 

It was fantastic, I need to sit down and watch it again as I had a noisy kid filled house, missed some of the dialog.

 

That special was great. I'm impressed with how well hammond's bike held up.
