Topgear heads up
Just looked and realised this week is the final episode in the series, not last weeks Bolivia special. Jezza tests the X6, Hammond tries the new Lexus supercar and May meets the woman who designs roadsigns
BBC2 at 8.00pm.

It's rather lost its appeal these days .... it's so manufactured and so obviously so.
That said, I'll be watching and moaning about how fake it all is!

My girlfriend was the one that noticed her, she looked a lot like Kelly Brook.

Still the worst part of the show though - they should bin it and think of something else to kill the time.
I enjoyed it this week - twas a good larf.

I liked the graphics effects in the Lexus piece - really funky. TG often do new visual/camera effects but its rarely commented on....

I was looking forward to this, as I have one...not a VXR. I was interested to see if they would pan it like they did the Vectra.
That
'test' was the biggest bag of toss I have ever seen on TG. What on earth was the point of taxi'ing round that coffin dodger, regardless of who she was?
Then, back in the studio, not a mention from May whether he thought the car was good, bad, or indifferent, no, it was straight onto the pointless awards.
I'm just about hanging in with TG as may is still worth a watch, other than him the show is crap.

I spoke to a bloke with a Lexus once and asked him what he thought of it. He said it was so perfect that he was bored with it.

I agree and noted that on the other thread, it was superb.
Some post production work is done by a seperate company (Evolutions) not the BBC. It's been very good for some time, but rarely noted as you say.
