r/TopGear

I'm from Germany and watching Grand Tour right now because i saw clips of it and Top gear and found it quite enjoyable. Now I'm wondering if its still worth watching all of Top gear when i finish Grand Tour since its dated a bit, i'm not that much of a car guy and i dont know if all episodes are worth a watch. So should i watch it all or just look for like especially funny episodes?

i'll start off; Some say that was often the harbinger for the incoming Viking invasions and that he once tried to drunk dial Erling Haaland but was put on hold. All we know is he is not the Stig, but he is the Stig's Norwegian cousin!

I did appreciate that at least some effort was put into the final episode of Top Gear, despite the fact it was still at the end of the day a botch job of the VTs that have been finished stuck together with continuity. I thought they were entertaining features, but nothing at the level that a final episode of Top Gear should deserve.

The solemn ending was reasonably well done (of the credits rolling without Jessica theme song), and it at least acknowledged that it wasn't just another episode of Top Gear, but the severing of a very beautiful friendship.

I have a few propositions of how it could've ended.

1. One final big final film, ending with a humorous ending. Something along the lines of the boys ending up being captured by an tribe (when they had merely asked for directions), and then preparing to be eaten (but not realising it) Jeremy says: I thought they were supposed to give us directions. Richard replying 'erm chaps, I think they want far more than that, before James saying 'oh cock'. The final shot is a of the house their in, with a caption: Jeremy Clarkson, 1960 - 2015, Richard Hammond, 1969 - 2015, James May 1963 - 2015
2. A final car review akin to the infamous Aston Matin V12 Vantage, of the one car Jeremy think will be a future classic and remembered for decades to come. Using a different song to Brian Eno - An Ending (perhaps Orbital - Halycon On and On).
3. The Top Gear studio ending up being blown up, again finishing with the caption of Jeremy Clarkson, 1960 - 2015, Richard Hammond, 1969 - 2015, James May 1963 - 2015

Clarkson was a man ahead of his time

Hi All—just discovered this and wanted to share.

Cheers.

I'm rewatching Top Gear on Amazon Prime. Currently, I'm on S5 E7, the episode in which they decided to do the awards mid season. A contender for one of the awards was the Ariel Atom. With Amazon's shoddy job of organizing the TG library, I thought I had maybe missed seeing the Atom episode. But no, the Atom wasn't featured until S5 E9. The folks in studio and those watching this episode at home on December 12, 2004, must have thought they missed something too.

None of this matters at all. Just a curiosity.
