One of the most enjoyable so far. Not the best , just really enteretaining.

Isn't the curious that in some little village in Africa they were able to come up with probably their bet car mods ever. Even better than some of the stuff they pulled off in the secret TG garage off the A40 in Devonshire.

I have to agree, this episode brought me back to the Good Ole Top Gear the last time I enjoyed and episode like this was the last African adventure with Oliver and The Best Driving Road with James in the Stripped out Aston Martin.

They have become a victim of their own success but I believe there is still a lot more to come from this Group and Series, as with other great shows the spin offs are tolerated but the original is as good as it will ever get.

No. What does people coming up with ideas have to do with where they are?

Wait, you really thought that it was only when they were on the African continent that they thought up those things? You do know that TG is scripted?

Easy there cowboy, you're making this into a socio-economic rant. Do you have an axe to grind?

Of course it's scripted, I think you forget yourself youth.

music was pretty good this rounds, and of course; the cinematography. 1080i in progress.
really wish they hadn't modified their cars though, that trick is getting pretty old, i really don't care whether it's scripted or not, it's just a little too superficial when you see them try so hard. i.e james and his stupid library.

other than that, really looking forward to where they end up next week.

Just finished watching them back to back...it was pretty entertaining. Some of the shots of the African countryside made me really appreciate my new TV :!:
I somehow knew that toilet seat would end up on the bonnet of a car, was expecting Clarkson to do a repeat from the Polar Special... but didn't expect to see the entire TG crew waiting to take a dump in the Subaru :-)
