Grand Tour Series 3
Re: Grand Tour Series 3
I liked this week's episode. Aston was good, space segment was great, Citreon bit was fun enough (like the Fiesta review many years ago on old Top Gear).

Re: Grand Tour Series 3
The cunt came close to wiping my family and me out in the Jet Provost at Southport. I reckon we were 20 metres away from certain death after he fucked up a manoeuvre when he was well over the crowd, and much lower than he should’ve been, and he didn’t learn a fucking thing about pushing on when things weren’t right. And at the same time, it’s fucked up airshows for everyone else.JonMad wrote: Sun Mar 10, 2019 1:55 pmYeah, wrong verdict imo.NotoriousREV wrote: Sat Mar 09, 2019 1:17 pmIn court Andy Hill said he’d never heard of such a thing, even during his RAF training.

I couldn't believe it on the news, how anyone could listen to the basic facts and decide it was anything other than the pilots fault is mind boggling.
Cheers, Harry

That wasn’t the conclusion: it was pilot error, but not to a criminal standard.integrale_evo wrote: Sun Mar 10, 2019 3:12 pm I couldn't believe it on the news, how anyone could listen to the basic facts and decide it was anything other than the pilots fault is mind boggling.

I especially enjoyed the space stuff
I’d quite like a James May or Clarkson documentary series on Apollo
Re: Grand Tour Series 3
I wonder if HarryM was present when his cars were driven? Plenty of oil on the start line as they pulled away.

Thanks for not linking to his twitter feed then.
Was he there both days, the main story and when Abby did the hot laps?

I’ll ask your wife, she’s obviously into cars.
Re: Grand Tour Series 3
He mentioned the Grand Tour on his end of year round up last year. The Testarossa started rattling when he gave it to them and it ended up having some expensive engine work iirc.

Really enjoyed this week’s episode. The 917 piece by James was a particular highlight.

One of the best TGT episodes evar. Even the bit at the end when they were fannying about in Stansted was quite funny.
