There were degrees of shit and the Allegro was at the bottom of the scale.

Would have been nice to see them use a Talbot Matra Rancho

Then again they would have trashed it

The show is now literally:

- Boring “done before” trip.
- good car piece.
- Boring “done before” celebrity crap.
- Boring “done before” trip....

Pretty much sums it up for me. Looking at my phone instead... Also Paddy's pronunciations of words is really grinding on me.

That was the funniest bit (IMO) - genuinely LOL'd at that

(I really enjoyed their first series of "Gone Fishing" - looking forward to the new one)

Twas a bit dull. Although Chris' review of the RR was refreshingly straightforward.

I quite liked this one. At first I thought it was odd to break off Paddy and Flinty from Harris for the main segment, but considering those two are like peas in a pod it kind of worked. Nice touch and 2 fingers up to the Sultan at the end as well.

The RR review was just Chris throwing his usual SUV strop and spouting crap to make a boring review more interesting. He seemed to miss the point spectacularly.
How about not having a sig at all?
