Series 10 Episode 7
Sunday 25 November - BBC2 8pmNext episode"We pay homage to British Leyland, which at one time was the largest car manufacturer in the UK - well, at least during the brief periods when its workforce wasn't on strike.
Jeremy, Richard and James will be forking out for some used models from the infamous brand, before subjecting them to a series of tests designed to find out if they still have that special BL magic.
We'll also be taking a look at the new DBS from Martin, Aston Martin. Who knows, we might even get through the whole review without referring to a certain fictional secret agent. Damn!"

It's brill to know beforehand of course.  I just wish that when we got to ten, you would be putting up "and in Episode 11, 12 etc"... Ten is still not enough ! *cries*  |

Yes, I've checked a few more listings and it does seem the guest will be Jennifer Saunders.

Episode 7 already - over half way through.  Ah well. Sunday looms and the Aston Martin should be very interesting.  The test sounds good too. |

Interesting how they have started putting these up since banning cameras/filming in the studio. I guess they are making sure there is better quality stuff out there instead of some grainy shots of peoples heads. Don't blame them - nothing worse than people ruining the surprise. |

That was a brilliant episode and JAMES WON like you said Coley. Jezza had a yellow car in the British Leyland test as well. Those guys are filthy - in the news Jezza's comment about gently cupping James's scrotum!!! God knows what they say that isn't shown. ;D Does anyone else think Jezza has a Keira Knightly obssession at the moment.  Oh picture request - so many (James wet and covered in eggs obviously) but the scene where Jezza has his finger stuck in that hole....... sorry.  |

Jennifer Saunders was brilliant wasn't she. She did very very well (won't give it away to those who haven't seen it yet). The things they get up to - I can't believe it. Filling the cars up with water and getting them to drive around that track. What a classic episode. |

If & when they start up The Cool Wall will Keira Knightley take over from Kristin Scott-Thomas? Good on Jennifer Saunders for not plugging & just wanting to do the lap cos she's competitive. She has gone up in my estimation. Not that she was down in it in the first place. Dunno why but was having very rude thoughts when Jezza got his finger stuck in the hole.
And James won. Yaaaayyyy!

Yep, I think Jezza was quite dismissive about KST - "Oh yes you've beaten her," I think it's all Keira now. He's mentioned her so many times I think it's a sure thing. Now what did we think of the Aston? I mean, if someone gave you one for free, would you say no? |

It was Jezza who had his finger in the hole. It all got very fruity in the News it has to be said - each week it gets worse. I love it. ;D |
