Top Gear

[TheNissanMan]

Well that was an interesting way to spend a day and all the more reason to watch Top Gear this weekend.... I was at the filming today with LOC....

All the presenters were superb and really approachable, they tried to talk to as many people as they could, the new GT40 is stunning if you dont mind onlydriving 76 miles between fillups (if driven carefully !!) and great to be part of the audience, a big thanks to Fargo from LOC for sorting the ticket :D :D :D

Yep, was a great day, and my hat goes off to the editing dept... Although i think a [late night] uncut version would be well funny...

Oh, and if you watch on sunday.. .look out for the shirt...

Me on TV!

[Fidgits]

oh, forgot to say... the Hilux was there, looking very beaten up and sorry for itself...

Oh, and as far as toyota go.. the show opens with a Prius.. (briefly - but does make a appearance for the GT40 section)...

They mention the Corrola Verso too.... did i miss anything Ryan?

Is there anywhere to leave coats?

Did you have to wait outside for ages?

[Fidgits]

no, but seriously, dont take a coat in with you, wiht the lights its so hot in there!

We arrived about 1:30pm, and were let in about 2-ish, then stood around inside till about 3pm before things kicked off...

Wear comfy shoes, cos you'll be on your feet for 4 hours or so!

Sounds like a good laugh. Who was the "Star"?

[Nicola]

no, but seriously, dont take a coat in with you, wiht the lights its so hot in there!

That's why the girl behind you was wearing a jacket.

I was just concerned about the waiting outside and getting cold (I feel the cold really easily, anyone want to donate me some body fat?).

Thanks for the standing warning, shame you can't sit in a car.

Was it worth the visit?

[Fidgits]

absolutly!

Oh, the star was Martin Clunes.. who i got to talk to... a real nice guy actually!!

And that girl was hot... ;) well in that jacket im sure she would be!
