FTFY ;)

But in all seriousness, please do share ASAP the following in your post tomorrow morning:

- Confirmation on if you have downloaded the latest episode
- The approximate size of the download, so that we can have a rough idea of the quality
- The device you shall be using to watch it, so that we can have a rough idea of how it will appear to your eyes
- Confirmation on if you will be sharing your feedback on it, so that we know to definitely check back on this thread

I really hope you would be able to accommodate me as a fellow forum member, to provide this info ASAP tomorrow morning. Please don't drop me, as I'm looking forward to receive this info.

Rouxenator is welcome to share his green DOS graph as well, but I'm more interested in FiestaST's feedback specifically.

Hope you don't mind me asking this favour, and if there is any additional info you are able to include additionally, please feel free to do so.

Alas I was & still am away from my pad/joint this week & not able to download S02E11

I am back there later on & will download it then but in all likelihood I may only have a chance to watch it tomorrow.

When I do I will revert back.

Thank you for not dropping me and keeping us up to date. Also for confirming that you will give feedback on here later on, that was not a given and the risk was there that we would have wondered, so I appreciate the courtesy!

Since the show must go on (mind the pun!), I just need to chime in here and mention that I've successfully downloaded the last episode, that is number 11, of season 2. For those who may not know, I've used a Windows PC to do so, and it appears, after double checking with Windows' built-in tools, that the size of this particular download amounts to 722MB.

I am about to start watching it, and will definitely give feedback on it later. And yes, I do have the usual bottle of Coca Cola next to me to keep the thirst away while watching it ;)

I know I'm delayed, only watching last week episode now. How ironic is it that the only SUV not going into limp mode is the range rover. You would think the Macan would be better/more reliable. The Alfa did as expected.

Just finished watching episode 11.

The whole episode consists of the "special", so no studio time (conversation street, celeb face off) or any car reviews & lap times.

To me, the "magic" of the trio's TG era "specials" was present in this episode, same humor, madness and ridiculousness. If you are not a huge fan of Grand Tour, but liked TG previously, try out this episode at least. Hammond falling off his motorcycle plenty of times is, well, typical Hammond. Top quote of Hammond: "I don't even like fish!" was very funny (watch the episode to experience it in context)

Looking forward to season 3.

Yes, this being a special with no tent scenes was clear from the chapter listing :cool:

Lekker buddy...thanks man. Just keeping up the "mentioning things that are clear but still it gets mentioned" culture of the thread in FiestaST's absence ;)

PS. Thank you for sharing your graph and green DOS stuff with us, it is MUCH appreciated. Thread wouldn't be the same without it!

Oh yes and just wanted to make sure, for the sake of clarity (since it means a great deal to you, I respect that), you were trying to say "with NO tent scenes" instead of "with NOT tent scenes", not so?

No biggie man, probably just a typo, we all understand what you are trying to say.
