Well that was like a compilation of the most boring and done-to-death top gear moments ever. I appreciate it's been done during a pandemic but I've seen much better things put out in the same period - like Rick steins Cornwall series.
Disappointed. Watch it, yes - but only because you've paid for it

Fell asleep half-way through.
Watched the 2nd half now and.....meh.
So much time to edit as well!
I do wonder if they're so busy doing their own projects (and I did really enjoy Clarkson's Farm) that they just didn't give any thought to TGT.Black 05 TDV6 HSE Auto

Tricky one... it was produced during the early, more impactive phases of the pandemic but not up to the previous usual standards.
One to move on from...Jim

I was looking forward to it, but it was total pants. Won’t be watching it again. The trio have had their best days. They are now looking like a punch drunk boxer.

It was filmed through a pandemic, with a lot of restrictions. Not sure what people were expecting to be honest. It’s never going to be their best work.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

Not brilliant, but like said it was filmed under restrictions. Quirky ending that took a while to work out after a few glasses of vino!

It was funny in patches but not their best - I did recognise some of those pokey streets in Edinburgh, pointless trying to squeeze their barges round them.
Coincidentally I learnt about the existance of that 'alpine pass' road earlier in the week BEFORE the release of Lochdown and put it on my bucket list to drive in the future - google for "Bealach na Ba Burf" or follow this link https://goo.gl/maps/kJE41BqpR61c8iBy6
And what was that ending all about??? Where actually was that Chinese/American themed bar?Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)
