    Wednesday 14, 7pm on BBC Two and Saturday 17, 7pm on BBC Three.

    According to the official site.

    Thinking about it, this week's episode reminded me a lot of Borat.

    It was funny when hammond broke May's air-con, and the shirt that was found in clarkson's car. Funniest episode ever :D

    im driving ma lorry, its raining and im looking for a hooor :D

    class episode but i agree the complaints generated from this one are going to be huge especially if the wifes reaction to clarksons sharp turn to remove the coo from the roof was anything to go by :rock:

    The CB radio thing was hilarious, and hammond trying to hide behind his hat! ah funny stuff, may's clothes rack was genious but the best bit by far was hammond talking to the camera and then realising he needed to break. Actually, no, the car dealer with a scoped rifle pips it ;)

    Awesome episode, best yet I think :D. Seeing the car come over the brow of the hill with the cow lashed to the roof, half hanging over the windscreen had me in stitches.

    Funniest episode ever. Seriously, I don't laugh as hard at comedy shows as I do this. It was offensive, but it's all so unserious. The Orleans bit was just fantastically done and really hit home about the amount of devistation and still nothing being done.

    Showers in the car
    Cows on the roof
    Mental Rednecks

    Has to be possibly the best Show ever. Even people you don't give a monkeys about cars have to love that episode.

    I thought it was quite nice that they gave the cars away at the end though aswell, very nice gesture.

    The launch was possibly the most awesome thing on telly I've ever seen.
    The landing was also spectacular, I didn't expect it to fwoomp as much as it did, I thought the fuel tank would have been empty. But hey, at least the Top Gear logo was the right way up!

    That was great! Didn't expect it to take off at all tbh.

    am i not the only one who thinks it was a bit...fake? I'm not saying it was CGI, but when i saw the explosion it looked like it blew up into trees, not on some grassy fields, and the grass was much darker and thicker then anywhere else, so it just got me to think..

    Might just be me, but I've grown a bit more suspcious since the America gay part, I doubt that the BBC would put a challenge like that and put all 3 presenters and the camera crew at so much risk :confused:

    I think the explosion of it landing was jerry-rigged, but the take-off looked pretty real to me. Awesome episode. :D
