That's because, in the UK, it is, and always has been. It's premium or PPV that's 20:00

Made me laugh from its silliness

Made me want that Pagani too ! £800k though, it makes the Rolls looked cheap at £150k !

Might be a stupid question, but how do they get permission to do things like the P45. Like the British Library, the coach company, DVLA/DofT etc...

Bentley I mean ! oops

Growing on me that car, never used to like the shape.

Not a bad ep, some good some bad, last section and dragons den was slightly funny, looking forward to the rest of the eps.

Anyone else having problems with iplayer , it wont play on my tv - other progs on iplayer will but not this.

Brookert · 27 Jan 2013 at 23:59

Not a bad show, although I wish they made the last part (jezzas car) half the length, and did more actual car content.

Thought it was a great ep, only didn't like the last bit with the investors...

I want that Pagani!

Enjoyable comfort viewing. The P45 was the star of the episode and one of the best things they’ve done in a while.

Guerrilla · 28 Jan 2013 at 08:07

Thought it was a good, solid episode and was certainly entertaining... Looking forward to next week.

I'd like to know this too, i.e. what did it take for the BL and Westfield to let him blast it around their premises

Exactly my thoughts - its not something to be taken seriously, its just a laugh. The star of the P45 bit wasnt the car though, it was clarkson. Who cares how scripted it was, he's very funny

Enjoyed that episode last night, the Bentley must have been wrecked after that feature. :eek:

P45 feature was hilarious, and the Pagani is just a nice looking car. Shame

The news feature dragged on though. That's a feature to skip through for the rest of the season.

Difficult task to make an entertaining car show that would appeal to a wide audience. They are trying hard but at least they bring something new each time.

antijoke · 28 Jan 2013 at 09:10

I laughed so much at the Dragons Den bit, "I can't understand you", lol.

I enjoyed it and glad it's back.

For the Westfield segment you could definitely see security guards around the lift lobby.

daveski · 28 Jan 2013 at 09:28

Must be a very busy admin department to sort the insurance and things out for the BL and Westfield bits.

Wasn't it Westfield they raced around on the Ford Fiesta feature?
