Does anyone know why SIARPC is still part of the show? Besides one or two they are all horrible.

My only problem with the Chinese piece is that it wasn't long enough or in depth enough.

Rated PG-34 posted:You think they would have at least compared those Chinese copies to their Western counterparts. My guess was that they were also somewhat hampered by the state in their coverage. That was my guess too, don't bad mouth our cars too much. Still I wanted to seem them drive the crazy mini thing.

djdanno13 posted:I got a laugh when they introduced Hammond as the pace car driver to... a couple claps. I keep forgetting that outside of our little community on the internet and their 6 min segment on 60 minutes almost two years ago they are virtually unknown over here. This is a moment that at least to me comes off as scripted. If there is one place in the US that knows everyone in Top Gear, it's a NASCAR event.

The car chase sounded really fun in a pitch meeting, but died in production. As the VW ad they did a few years ago was great.

I was sure I had seen the race at the beginning, it was on one of the dvd. I love the Jeremy and James do some kind of history segments. I get the feeling they they like each other way better then they like Hammond. I can't get into TGUS.

The clear answer is a real cheap car across china, or maybe one across the great Australia. Or a 1500 dollar challenge across Canada (no car would make it)

Honestly, It was a super important war to the modern world which no one learned any lessons from.

KozmoNaut posted:Oh man, I hope they can somehow put the Koenigsegg Regera on track with the 918, P1 and LaFerrari. Unless Koenigsegg has changed their stance, they don't really care what the top speed of their cars are or how fast they go around tracks. The last model was rumoured to be faster then the Veryon but they don't be bothered to max it.

Take everything that PBS has ever shown that isn't about nature or children and there is a good chance it a BBC production. It airs in North American in April, and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norvell is due this summer.

The profits are so large that he could be paid an even bigger salary specifically with the intention of docking him huge chunks of it and giving the money to charity.

At any point did this get a few reshoots, it kind of feels like it did. Also the BBC really doesn't seem like they wanted to air this at all but kind of got forced into it just based on the ending.
