I just realised that I have not squeed about last night's TG Roadtrip Special. This is remiss of me, and must be remedied. Except... I dunno what's left to say! Richard deciding he was a cowboy was glorious, as was his CB handle and the inital drive through Florida, and Jeremy's car having the shirt of the last owner's last victim in the boot, and big Stig, and bumping into James becoming a running gag, and those astonishing radio ads, and the sun and the music and Jeremy waxing lyrical about being with his mates, and the COW! And poor Richard thinking he'd gone doolally 'There's a cow on your Cammero!"

I've not laughed like that in months. This is better than most comedy shows on tv right now.

And then there was the scary bit, and I don't care, I don't think that was staged, but dear god, whoever thought of that challenge deserves a slap on the back of the skull. "James, what you've done there is killed your friend!"

I've just realised this will mean nothing to the majority of my friendslist (shame on you! Watch the repeat and laugh yourself stupid!) and has probably utterly terrified certain Belgians... ah well, c'est la vie ;)

/Drive-by but without any heavy weaponry TG squee

Hee! Jeremy's car failing to start and it just dawning on him he hadn't actually refuelled it. James and Richard bickering over the jumpleads! And the aww of their attempts at giving the cars away in New Orleans.

Ooh, hello! Oh, I know, the look on his face was priceless, when he realised he'd not refuelled since Florida! And I know, the whole New Orleans section left a little lump in my throat (although I was giggling at the 'woah, crazy little English dude' expression on the face of the lady Richard gave his truck to when he asked her to look after it!)

The shrieking like a girl at the tortoise moving was the best bit of it all EVER.

Oh, wasn't it? They should never ever let him live that down. Ever.

Clarkson, your hard-man reputation is now in tatters, and it's thanks to a tortoise. How embarrasing :)

It really as funnier than half the stuff on TV.

And I don't care how many people have complained about the cow ~ I nearly wet myself laughing. And every time I see Jeremy driving across the field, I nearly choke. And Richard's "What I can see, and you're gonna like this, is a cow on your Camero" is just fantastic. And quite frankly, how else were they going to get it off?!

Ah, it was glorious wasn't it?

And the cow/roof/camaro line is, I think, a contender for the best TG line ever. In fact, in true HH styleeeee, I think we should petition for Richard to not have to use Jeremy's scripts anymore. Much as I love them, he's far funnier unscripted.
