They've also been seen in the past week speeding up the motorway near Stoke, in three 'old sports cars' |

Four more Icelandic pics, taken by photographer Guðbjörg Harpa: www.flickr.com/photos/ghiI hope Andy will allow plenty of time for this film. It looks like it's deserves an entire special.  |

Unlikely - normally, the specials have all three of the guys in. Unless Rich and Jezza are doing separate projects to be put together, like the Winter Olympics. |

The guys were seen filming in Berlin this week.   Someone checked the licnce plates and the cars are: FORD SIERRA RS COSWORTH BMW M3 MERCEDES 190E 2.3 16 Wonder who will get his hand on which car. This is the link to the Final Gear page, but you might have to be a member to get there, as it's in their spoiler section. forums.finalgear.com/top-gear-spoilers/topgear-in-berlin-43431/#post1333087 |

Blimey James is barely off a plane from Iceland and now he's in Berlin! It's a tough schedule right now. I bet poor Woman and Fusker hasn't seen him for barely more than 24 hours at a time this year with all the TG stuff going on!  good "bum" shot of the lads though, pity it's not a bit closer |

Best I could do!  By the way, I assume James will be blamed for causing all British airports to be closed today because of the volcanic dust coming over from Iceland? Got to be his fault, he drove on hot lava. Sky News is running wall-to-wall "panic from the skies" stories, and I reckon it's only a matter of time before someone makes the connection! |

Looking at this comment posted in the DT, it seems that James has managed to find his way back to Calais. ;D
"James, last night I went on a mercy mission to collect my stranded wife from Calais. Quick blast down from London, through the Eurotunnel, drive to ferryport and collect her. Then quicker blast back to the Eurotunnel to get the 23.16 all going well until the person ahead couldn't get their ticket from the machine and a 10 minute faff ensued resulting in my having to reverse 300m and going another way but by then there was a long queue at passport control. End result, missed the 23.16 by 2 minutes, an extra hour at Calais and home at 1am.
That faffer was you James, how difficult is it to retrieve a booking? Also if you are unsure why use the FlexiPlus line which is for speedy access?
No wonder you hid in your car for the wait and the entire crossing."
Missed my Eurotunnel because of you

Wonder what car he was in? And how long he had to hide?  |

LOL! Maybe it was because James was in the tank. Not an easy thing to manoeuvre through the EuroTunnel!
With so many people getting stranded abroad it would make a brilliant TG challange/race. "Get from Spain to London in the fastest possible time without spending a fortune (as John Cleese has just done for a taxi from Norway) or pulling rank over the ordinary traveller". Amphibious machines allowed.

LOL ;D You can just picture James causing a queue ;D and muttering " ruddy norah" & "bloody hell" ;D ;D If i'd been there i would have rushed to his aid (and been none the wiser probably ) |

After watching a very exciting F1 race this morning, I have a new idea for a TG race........F1 Pit Lane Racing. Who can carve up their rivals on the 'in' and carve them up again on the 'out' ;D
