Episode 4: 1) The pickup truck challenge was absurd beyond the level of old Top Gear episodes 2) The Jaguar they tested looks like a 4 door Mustang 3) I think Clarkson is 11 months pregnant

Hammond did a really nice piece on Jim Clark this week. It was way above the level of their usual shenanigans. Clarkson tried to outrun Abbie on a frozen lake with his usual lowest common denominator approach. The course had a "bell end", a "shaft" and a "pair o' ballica".

The Jim Clark piece was excellent.

Oops!
Top Gear presenter crashes during Mansfield filming No idea who Freddie Flintoff and Paddy McGuinness are. There's a video on that link showing the crash.

In my world that is barely considered a crash.

Yeah, more like a minor runoff incident. I was more curious about the 'fellow presenters' they mentioned along with Chris Harris.
Does this mean there is a personnel change coming? Then again, the names sound a little bit made up. Aliases maybe.

I really don't know how these new Top Gear hosts will do but I'm afraid it will be like the Chris Evans saga.

The Grand Tour boys are driving in Scotland this week. What's wrong with this picture?
It only happens briefly in this one quick shot, but it jumped out at me.

Diving on the wrong (right) side.
Episode 7 was another winner.

Yep, it was a good one. Also, I'm not sure they are just driving on the right. There is a road sign almost even with the lead car (on the wrong/right side) that appears to be facing toward them. It looks like it has been flipped mirror image style and I can't figure out why. Weird.
It doesn't blow up very well, but that looks like like the business side of the sign.

They must have flipped the image in editing. Probably made the cutting of the sequence flow better, or they did it as joke to see if anyone noticed.
