I loved it,DB.

James May gets to do some really special stuff.

dicksbro,

Yes. Yes indeed.

"I need to scratch my face!"

"Just think about other stuff, and it goes away."

The face?!

Spectacular!

I remember watching the entire programme this was on. The "co-pilot" is a fella called James May, who is one of the presenters on our premier car show, Top Gear.

OF will recall another presenter, Jeremy Clarkson, insulting a well-known TV presenter in Oz a while ago - called her an "ugly drongo" or something, I can't eemember exactly what!

May is very laid back, and a joy to watch IMHO.

DM, wasn't that the cook Ramsay?

I don't remember Jeremy doing that.

Could have been, OF.

Was it in Australia that JC called Gordon Brown a "one-eyed Scottish idiot" then? He did something down there, of that I'm sure. There was a great furore over here about the fact JC referred to our Prime Minister as "one-eyed" - nobody seemed to mind the "Scottish idiot" bit though!!

Yes, he did that.

That was our JC.
