Any1 see May fly in a U-2 last week. Got up to 70000ft and wore a space suit. Earned a lot of respect. Still think top gear has improved over last year.

Once again looking forward to this episode. Should be good as always. Also thought James May's space flight was great a few weeks ago. Might have to get it downloaded off the iPlayer.

Don't think it's on iPlayer anymore. It's being released on DVD soon though i think.

RS vs Megane today

Emlyn_Dewar · 12 Jul 2009 at 20:04

Ugh, FFS, a load of T in the Park tripe on until 9pm... THEN Top Gear.
Is it just Scotland that have this issue or is it the same for everyone?

Goksly · 12 Jul 2009 at 20:08

Wish they would stop comparing the focus rs with the megan which is spec'ed for racing, rather than a fast every day hatch. Does the megan even have rear seats?

Question answered

They should compare it vs the normal R26.

Emlyn_Dewar · 12 Jul 2009 at 20:10

Sigh, I guess so.

BBC Scotland... Rubbish!

Goksly · 12 Jul 2009 at 20:15

Sucks to be Scottish.... but we knew that before the Top Gear time slot

snowdog · 12 Jul 2009 at 20:16

Lol even here in the NL I can watch Top Gear now real time and not an hour later

.

Emlyn_Dewar · 12 Jul 2009 at 20:21

I think it's just a case of...
T in the park is in Scotland, that means EVERYONE in the country wants to watch it!!!ONEZ!

Still, sounds like it should be a decent Top Gear tonight.

to be fair, they have reviewed the RS, which is one more review than most of the recent episodes

I think Hampster is about to regret taking the wheel having May as a passenger
