1. One of my favourite shows on BBC Canada. Looking forward to a new season in 2011.

2. Top Brass at the BBC hate Top Gear…hate it. Too butch and way too successful.

3. Notice they didn’t include a snowplow.

4. “Brilliant”

5. S’pose they’ll add the de-icing truck next year.

6. Top Gear is readily available on the web for those who do not have BBC Canada. Check Final Gear for a link to the torrents.
   The current season has just started.

7. Obviously filmed pre-mature to UK’s latest exposure to global warming, oops PC meant to say “climate change” otherwise they would have logically had one of the big steet snowblowers like we had in Montreal. Would have simply “chewed” up the competition.

8. That was awesome.

9. yea….but flying is easy…

10. TopGear is the best thing to come out of Britain since Churchill.
    And then we Americans had to ruin it by trying to make our own version. Curse you, History Channel!

11. If the baggage tractor got to drag along carts,,,,
    why didn’t the tug get to drag around a A320?
    (Top Gear HATES French stuff don’t you know)

12. too bad we cant all have our own private plane.
    but that’s just some right wing thinking here.

13. Does that give anyone ideas about what to do during those slow days on the farm in January? All those machines just sitting there in the shed, with the back 40 bare….?

14. Of the fire truck: “It’s made of aluminum, like a Ferrari.”
    Classic. 🙂

15. One of my favourite bits in that show is when they did a barrel roll in the sewers of Belfast with a Fiat. As the host says, “If I don’t make it I am going to be in deep _______!”

16. Top gears pi$$es of the moooslims in their latest episode, for dressing in the holy niqab. Not god willingly of course.
    You’ve gotta love Clarckson, peace be upon him.
    CLARCKSON AKHBAR!!!

17. Hilarious, especially for those of us who have driven these beasts of aviation burden. Got a tow mule (they call a tug) up to 50mph once. Scarey beyond belief.

18. I loved this when I first saw it on the show and loved it again here. I work at an airport and would dearly love to see a race like that here.

19. Drifting the bendy bus… I’m just dying to do that! That looks like serious fun.

20. Just when you think the Brits are a has been bunch they make you take notice as too why they were the rulers of most of the world.
