OV9

First Ep on Prime now. Anyone else watching?

watched half of it so far then stopped for lunch

Nah, saw the hilarious #amazonshitshow advertising and decided it's still not for me.

Watched it last night

It’s fine

Seems very old fashioned now

Whilst the hashtag isn't particularly funny, the number of people who seem to genuinely not realise it's entirely intentional is hilarious.

Trying to repeat the sheer joy of #susanalbumparty is a doomed endeavour in the first place.

All of the above. You know what you are going to get and that most of the "gags" are scripted but it was fine.

That.

It was good; an interesting location to film, some cars which are appealing and not loads of studio awkwardness.

Apparently Amazon have scrapped the studio for the next season, and reduced the number of episodes, with an emphasis on the adventure type episodes

Hopefully, less pretending streets are abandoned when you can quite clearly see the police road blocks at each end, etc

Yep I enjoyed that, they’ve basically removed the awkward bits from previous seasons. The racing driver doesn’t talk anymore and they no longer have the celebrity section. Surprised it took them this long, can see why they’re binning the entire studio for next season as the road trips and reviews are the best bits.

Also Jeremy must be due to give birth soon.

Got it on now. Piled on the weight a bit haven’t they

They are very old

And very wealthy

And their money isn’t based around being beautiful

Seem reasonable that they might be a little fatter that previously. I do wonder if Jeremy might be physically more comfortable with a slightly larger waist to his jeans

The original £160m contract was for 3x series.

I wonder what length of contract they will negotiate next, if at all ?

Hammond looks daft with the dyed hair and beard. Clarkson says he piled on the weight after quitting fags.

I enjoyed it. It seemed a lot less forced to me, like they genuinely don't much give a fuck anymore.

They do look a right state though. HD is not kind to them. Not that it matters at all, it's just unusual to see people looking like that on telly unless you're watching poverty porn or 24 hours in A&E

Hammond = Swiss Tiny Stark.

I liked it.

Haha, not bad, that.

I thought it was decent too. When is TG 26 out?

Cheers,

It was certainly enjoyable, the Senna looked even worse going round a track! Looked like a car a 5 year old would have drawn.
