This will be something to look forward to while I'm pounding tarmac tomorrow morning. Get home, get horizontal, press play. Sorted!

Way too much BMW air time in this episode

Sad it's over ... Season 2 can be epic if they drop the guest thing, stick with the lap times and get more hyper cars.

I stopped having anything nice to say so I didn't say anything :p :)

Watched the whole season...it's average entertainment at best. Like a sketch show that's 40 minutes too long...Clarkson and Co are trading on their personalities and forgetting about the car part of the show.

Thankfully a bit more car in 13.

The drifting got boring fast. They could have made it more interesting by actually going into detail about how to do it, and ways to get it wrong.

Sadly, the scripting of James May as the stuck-up fuddy-duddy UCT (upper class twit) continues unabated. Hope we've seen the end of that.

I liked the last 2 epsiodes. Don't remember and dick and sex jokes in 13. If they just lose the celeb thing it'll be better. But on the whole the season was average.

Just as a side note, you do know James is a stuck-up fuddy-duffy (RICH class twit)

Of the 3 presenters, probably the only one with a degree and a pilots license.

I can have had enough of the ccelebrity brain crash. that should be left alone now.
bring in a celeb, ask them car questions, move on. dont even bother with a lap time, we dont care do we?

conversation street is epic, I really do enjoy that.

I would also really like them to do a bit of news again, like conversation street, but more about interesting car thing that media might not have covered.
