Milo Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 I would check your recipe as the last time I spoke to Jamie, it was turkey and leek... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 i realise he used turkey, I don't have any leftovers yet so am using my skills of improvising and replacing with chicken instead (still got 20 mins til the leek, bacon and thyme are done but mmm mmmmm smells good so far) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 CHICKEN?! Good God, it'll ruin it. Actually, aren't chickens just baby turkeys? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woppum Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Not a real review at all sadly. Amazed the sly can keep up with the 458 though. I don't mind the grey And red, not a patch on the blue but it still works - yell brakes no so much thought the rs looked the most fun out the lot, not biased at all of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Not a real review at all sadly. Amazed the sly can keep up with the 458 though. It looks a right porker doesn't it, I was a bit surprised until jezza mentioned how, and what, it was made from, then you realise thatit's not the fat heavy Merc you thought it was! Really really a big fan of that Merc now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 I thought it was terrible. +1 After such a good show earlier this week i was really looking forward to it. I thought it was absolute garbage. Easily one of the worst "specials" ever. Total crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc1303 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 I thought it was terrible. Yup, absolute poo In fact the only bit that even raised a smile was describing Hamsters condition as brown rain. Other than that, very predictable and very tedious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Scott Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 I thought it was ok :DRiz Agreed, I found it entertaining but also agree with the others that it wasn't on form humour wise but overall a good watch imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntW Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 +1Easily one of the worst "specials" ever. Agreed, a good standalone episode, but when you compare it to the Polar special and the Amazon one (which was superb) it falls way short of the mark.

Scotty Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 It went down hill after the start ... but I gotta say flying with the doors open on a cargo plain whilst sitting in a car must have been a proper buzz! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I'd agree when it's too false people complain that was all fairly real or it seemed it and it was good fun. As good as the best shows no, but would I rather have top gear on tv or some of the absolute drivel that has been on over Christmas it would be top gear every time for me.

If you tune into Dave, Top gear is aways on. This episode was ok but I just think they have done the same thing so many times now that's it's totally predictable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 So the question is should they continue making this stuff in the very sucessful format, change it all around or bin it. I think the basics are good but it certainly does need a tweak here and there. p.s. Do you remember when Top Gear was actually about the cars ?

fatcat Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 I thought it was quite dull really, very predictable and the 'ending' was plain awful - just like they had run out of time with 2 minutes to fill at the end. Oddly enough, the only real bit was when the old bloke fell over and banged his head, watching that in slo-mo was painful enough, defo not staged that bit.

cruiser647 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I thought it was quite dull really, very predictable Agreed. Not the best. I'd like to watch the first one again, so I suppose it will be an i-player bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURTON Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I didn't mind it as it was entertaining. Better than some of the viewing that was on. Should they bin this format? Hmmm I am not sure about that, maybe they rely on their mag to do the reviews, but they have the market. With 5th Gear trying the Top Gear format now!!
