Top Gear Series 14


Recommended Posts

Funny as hell and that 133 Car was a good nippy machine, did any one notice the very HOT girl when Jeremy Clarkson did the news.. the girl in the middle, damm fit :p

You talking about the brunette/ginger chick? :p

Radish?

Did anyone else notice a distinct lack of James May... i mean he was there during the studio shot bits but that was all really.

Maybe that was the reason the beeb put 'James May on the moon' on beforehand?

I shall be writing a stern letter the BBC this afternoon... *snort*

:p

I thought it was a great episode. Besides, the previous episodes had the entire episode pretty much having them building their own car and James May having a Caravan Balloon thing - it's about time they had a more varied episode.

Besides, the producer stated they're gonna tone down those huge challenges eventually.

Shame the HD broadcast was abut 2 hours late though... Stupid BBC.

Not Happy With This Season So Far? Read Andy’s Response

There’s a rather lengthy thread on our forums where some people are saying that they’ve been unhappy with this season for a variety of reasons, but mostly because it wasn’t car related enough.

Andy Wilman, the executive producer of Top Gear and the fourth man behind the show, has responded to those types of concerns in a very well written blog post today. If you’re one of those people who feel Top Gear has gone in the wrong direction, then I strongly advise you to read it and then watch next week’s Bolivia special.

Behind The Scenes With Jenson Button

http://www.topgear.com/uk/videos/new-serie...s-jenson-button

I'm honestly not looking forward to Top Gear each week any more. Despite being a massive fun, the predictable nature of the show has got to me now, after a few years. All the joke rehashes are just mind-numbingly annoying. "Oh it's on fire" yes, "haha" that is still funny after that many years - Oh you broke something? Gee, marvellous and you make a hash of things on purpose? How very innovative.

I remember Top Gear in the golden days, they actually managed to make it look like they were trying hard yet failing; that was fun! Now they aren't even bothering and it's like they are practically reading the script as they set fire to things, spray themselves in the face with air-fresheners and ruining every other thing they touch.

I just wish they'd take their projects more seriously and not intentionally make it crap. like their electric car, wich with the base they had could have been awesome. or their latest art car.

Definitely - I mean, of course you expect them to fail in some aspects but I want them to give it their best and actually want to do a proper job, then all the hilarious stuff should come naturally because something is bound to go wrong all on its own without them planning every joke, every fire and how the entire project is bound to "fail" from the very start.

This show was utter crap.

And I hate how they put in 5% effort into their project. They come up with some pretty good ideas and then screw it up on purpose. Ugh. I want them to try things like driving to the north pole, or driving across an African country again. REAL things that nobody's done before. THOSE are what make top gear truly epic.

Yeah, Sunday's show was terrible. Why **** something up on purpose when you have something brilliant? Like May's sculpture. I don't want to bring the license fee into any of this, but they really are wasting it on destroying perfectly decent things.

The Bolivia special this week should be brilliant though. If it isn't, I'll be severely disappointed, and the production team will have a lot to answer for.

    • Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.
    • Yeah Patchou was an active member here, good ol' times indeed.
    • Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
