Top Gear: The Ashes Special

[DKFoxtrot]

I liked it - the three Australian blokes were nice and entertaining, without 'trying to hard'
It isn't UK Top Gear standard, but it definitely has potential to be - it was much better than I expected!
... But I am quite disappointed about the UK boys. Like chariset pointed out, the cheating and the 'James-in-the Stig-suit' is starting to get a bit cliché :/

Just finished watching this! I really enjoyed it! I had my misgivings considering the previous attempts at anyone making a Top Gear "remake". But this was good! ;D

Of course, Shane will be taking the Clarkson role, but I really liked Steve. He seemed the most talented and had the most ingenuity of the trio.

Loved the Peels! "We're one big animal. Go away!" ;D ;D

Enjoyed bits, got rather bored by some of the Aussie crew's stuff. Yes, some of the challenges were predictable (I never liked the double-decker cars anyway) but others made me laugh outright. The whole programme was way too long, though.

A couple of interesting moments: 1) leaning, 2)peeking

Oh, and the "You crushed an Allegro?! -- thanks" moment was cute.

Ooh! The men from OZ went through Chatsworth Park in the sports cars, I was driving through there on Sunday. Loved the safari park and the double decker car bits.

I thought it was a great show. I especially enjoyed the van race. The look on Richard's face! ;D
