Yes, poor James on the Blair Witch camera. ;D Loved the Bill Oddie face too. Then when they got separated on the train. Amazing stuff. Watching Jezza running up those steps I was saying, "Slow down or you'll have a heart attack!"

ah that pictures is from holland !!!!! I have seen that a few weeks ago A few weeks? Months more likely. But it was kind of frontpage news here because it was so funny. (The guy wasn't seriously hurt or anything.) They must hve been waiting for a slow-news-week episode to show it.

But for me Jeremy was a real tour de force. I watched in comfort downstairs, without distraction of trying to chat on here at same time, and really savoured every word.

I thought the news was really good as well - they were very light hearted throughout it. A real camaraderie. Even enjoyed the Stars this week. Go girls. ;D I thought Kate and Fiona were fab. The race was an epic. I too thought James and Rich would win. Never mind lads. There's always the next time. The Alfa 8C - very, very beautiful IMHO but if I had that much money I'm not sure I'd take the plunge

We've seen him run twice recently. (This is me at my saddest but here goes ) Once at the Race Across London at the end and once on the Britcar 24. Both times he nearly expired. But I do like watching him try to win. And that shirt Mr May. Boy. Only he can get away with that (just. )

Not Japan! Sorry, Glam! Am I being thick? Or Captainess Slow? ;D

My new favorite segment: James having to resort to the handy cam after not only having lost Hammond, but the camera-crew as well. At least he was on the right train. ;D I wonder what he would have done, he the others hadn't made it to the bus on time. Waited for the next bus, knowing they would lose or continue the race on his own, hoping to beat Jeremy.

And that shirt Mr May. Boy. Only he can get away with that (just. ) I'll have you know that shirt was a summer frock in a former life! One of my early memories is getting lost in Woolworths in Rose Hill (between Sutton and Carshalton), when I was about three. And a lady asked me to describe my mum. I said "She's wearing a mustard jacket." Probably teamed with an ancestor of James' shirt! That thought did distract me a bit as James leather jacket was of a similar colour! ;D

Enjoy it Manson. Bring us back some screencaps Dutch. Just remembered Richard's little dig at Jeremy when he said he'd check his flies were done up as the viewers are obviously eagle eyed and Richard said, Not that eagle eyed. ;D That was very off the cuff.

Oh and don't forget, your votes count. Just remembered Jeremy declaring his love for Antiques Roadshow.

Brilliant stunning epic, if you can't guess I enjoyed it a lot. Loved James's holiday shirt and I understand his upset with Richard's suitcase on wheels. The news I always love. Mainly because of the way the three of them interact. I can;t wait for next week

I thouroughly enjoyed tonights episode. I got to watch it but didnt see the news. I enjoy those race challenges. I did think james was a little lost & concerned when he got split from Richard. ahh james. I also noticed that when James & Richard were racing on foot, James was often times in front of Richard which I dont think ususally happens. I wish they had won for once.

Oh Jezza! Please never ever change! When he showed the Bill Oddie mask to that Japanse woman and said he'd spot her beaver at so many paces! How does he get away with it? Oh and the viewer who complained to the police about the double white line! What a prat! There was so much I loved about it I'd take the whole page up with my ramblings.

I forgot to add the blinking James did on the James cam was adorable. Poor Richard he did look panicky! Mind you who would in that situation, apart from the fact he had the crew with him

That's my problem with this episode - how come the entire crew were off filming Richard looking for a vending machine just when the train separated? Not exactly the most thrilling of activities (unless they were hoping to find a machine containing knickers - not sure if they're an urban myth or not). Don't get me wrong, it all added to the drama and was really funny, but after all the "TG races are faked" malarkey it just seems a bit fishy to me. Also, if Jezza had tried that beaver line on an English speaking petrol attendant then he would probably have received a slap. That comment was a bit unfair tbh. *Ducks for cover* Other than those two very small niggles, I thought that it was another excellent episode. Hopefully, Mr May will get a chance to review a car in the next one
