Sponge Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Oh, cheers. I'd forgotten and would probably have missed it as that's the time were usually trying to get the kids to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stooH Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Aaaah! How did I not know this was on I saw an advert last week and all it said was "coming soon" what crappy crappy advertising from the BBC. Why on a Tuesday night?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booster Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I only caught this by chance. Sky also says 7/7 so I thought it was a repeat. I agree with the p1ss poor advertising comment!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I quite enjoyed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4ttm4son Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Advertising was shocking for a show that attracts such a huge following. I happened to notice it in the tv guide in the paper on the way home. I would have expected that it was on Christmas Eve/ Day. There'll be a repeat and on iPlayer though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 It's repeated on Xmas Day BBC2 @ 6.55pm And then the next in the series is on Boxing Day BBC2 @ 8pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gra -The Stig Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Really really good episode tonight. I knew about it ages ago and set calendar appointment but can't remember where I heard about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max_b Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Loved the taking the mick out of the Stig - shooting him backwards, very good, plus a nice choice of cars back to back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4ttm4son Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 A episode. Very enjoyable. Pleased you didn't go for Grey with Red Woppum? Did it look to anyone else that they were firing blanks on that range and then just poked the Stig with a stick to make the holes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 A episode. Very enjoyable. Pleased you didn't go for Grey with Red Woppum? Did it look to anyone else that they were firing blanks on that range and then just poked the Stig with a stick to make the holes? Does it matter? It was a great episode, loved JC blowing the studio lights with the Parrot drone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busby Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 loved JC blowing the studio lights with the Parrot drone... That and the "fire" were the only bits I didn't like! Those parts just feel so over-scripted now imho. Loved the tyre shop with the mayor dancing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4ttm4son Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 That and the "fire" were the only bits I didn't like! Those parts just feel so over-scripted now imho. Loved the tyre shop with the mayor dancing! +1 on both counts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved the tyre shop with the mayor dancing! Same here, hate it when they go over the top with the script but overall top episode and now looking forward to Boxing day.... and next year for the new series!!!

Andrew Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Pity we didn't get a proper review of any of the three really. They managed to do a good review of the RS4, M3 and C63 in the same sort of setup. Or, did I miss that?! Overall quite good - wonder what the Stig feature will turn into though. The bullet holes didn't look big enough for some of the weapons used - especially JCs. Too neat as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazza_g Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 A episode. Very enjoyable. Pleased you didn't go for Grey with Red Woppum? I haven't watched it yet, was there a joke about the grey-red combo on the GT3RS? One of the guys here at work has that colour scheme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentandy Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 A really enjoyable episode and liked what they did with the Stig, they're not bitter are they! That mayor had the same comedic value as Boris Johnson. Did anyone else think one of the tyre mechanics sounded like Boomhauer from King of the Hill.
