Re: One for the road
Hits up google, assumes your talking about the grand tour and not the arctic monkeys....
.....nope, but I haven't watched the last 3 or 4, it all seemed so forced, so formulaic, so dated, so trying to recapture something that died many many years ago, which is a shame as in their heyday they were properly funny.

Re: One for the road
Yep, saw it tonight. I’m a fan of all 3 so I loved it. Always a couple of genuine laugh out loud bits, this is more bittersweet than normal but well worth a watch.

Re: One for the road
Started to watch it tonight but the wife had had too much wine and was incessantly talking over it! Will watch it later today. I never really watched the Grand Tour. Dunno why, as I like the guys and envy but enjoy what they do. One thing I did notice is how rough Clarkson looks! Just getting old I suppose!

I was the same about the GT. Then I got Covid pretty bad and just watched the lot.Taipan wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 4:51 am Started to watch it tonight but the wife had had too much wine and was incessantly talking over it!

The special episodes are well worth a watch. There are loads- my personal fave is the Columbia trip.

Re: One for the road
Ok I was bored and it's raining so gave it a watch.
A decent enough send off / end to it all, nostalgic in places, but so so tired, but I suppose after 20+ years it's to be expected, hopefully Clarkson's Farm will continue

Getting old and now spending a lot more time in fields, getting up at 3AM and arguing with the local council

Over 60, drinks like a fish, smokes like a chimney and likes rich food.
He's a heart attack or stroke waiting to happen.

That's what I thought. Surprised the Botswanan customs didn't suspect him of smuggling a football, either that or he's pregnant...Bigjawa wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 7:38 pmTaipan wrote: ↑Sun Sep 15, 2024 4:51 am Started to watch it tonight but the wife had had too much wine and was incessantly talking over it!

Re: One for the road
I believe Clarkson gave up smoking a couple of years ago, I could be wrong, he could certainly do with cutting back on the booze though.
The show was the same as all the others except I'm not sure any of them actually wanted to be there.

Re: One for the road
Far too much 'we'll never do that again'
A great advert for Zimbabwe tourist board and the Guildford playhouse though.

Brilliant I thought. Quite sad at the end, but jeez, what memories they must have.
