That's odd, I would have expected cutting-edge innovation from them in terms of humour.

I stopped watching the second episode about halfway through. An amazingly poor use of all those resources.

I do like a gay joke as well.

Oh I haven't watched the three bellends for decades now but I think you can all sleep easy at night knowing that in no way will that hinder me making comments about them.

I thought it was alright

I did some laughing in the 2nd part

I’d like to see them take a Cullinan, a Lamborghini Anus, New G Wagen, Bentley Bentayga and a Range Rover somewhere properly off road - a bit like in the Bolivia Special. Expect not all of those cars, because there’s only 3 presenters

cullinan bentayga and anus would be the correct 3 as they’re all new kids on the block. Are they tough enough?

Agreed - RR and G-wagon have nothing to prove!

So an Audi Q7, Q8 and a BMW X7 - yeah, I think they’ll be fine and just get stuck a few times.

Rather than off-roaders, I'd prefer if the got 3 fast cars and did a tour of Germany - you know, the place without speed limits...

I can't think of anything more dull than watching three boorish middle-aged men driving cars on motorways, speed limits or otherwise.

Dinny - you do of course know that Germany DOES have speed limits, don't you? It's just certain sections of motorways and dual carriageways that are derestricted.

No Chirons flat out past schools in built up residential areas?

Up to the guy driving, I guess. But it wouldn't be legal :lol:

I just think they've done enough of these "Driving an unsuitable car, really slowly, on dirt tracks" sort of features.

These are suitable cars though, Dinny.

They are big tall cars where the engine's power is sent to all of the tyres and in fact are marketed as being capable of driving in places where there are no actual roads yet.

Do try and keep up.

Episode 3 was the sound of the bottom of a very unfunny barrel being scraped dry. Although my daughter found the pickup section quite amusing, but what does she know, she’s only 10 years old.

Just realised I never finished watching Season 2, and I’ve only watched half an episode of S3: DIELC? 🤨

It's probably safe to assume that thinking The Grand Tour is a bit shit won't affect your status as a car fan :lol:. I've only ever watched an episode or two of the first season.
