Has anyone noticed that The Guide keeps listing the wrong TG episode?

Does anyone read the Guardian?

 

[TsLeng]

Well, Im waiting for the episode with sabine lapping nurb in a van........

I think they should go to the nurb more often - couldnt think of a better place to test a car

 

[ExigeEvan]

It would be impossible to have a completely fair test, especially in Great Britan. There are TONS of factors to take into account. These results are for fun anyway, aren't they? Why do we care?

I could be in the market for a £100,000 track day car

Too bad JC sucks at it.

 

[Dave A]

He's hardly ever driven there thats why, he's not a race driver either. They could do with taking the Stig to the ring for a change, see how well he does on it that'd be fun, The Stig vs Sabine.

 

[Danny]

Sabine is purrty.

Has anyone got the UKTV People channel here? Top Gear is on every day. There are adds so about 10 minutes of the program is cut out, like talking but that's the part I find most funny. They repeat old and new episodes.

 

[G.T]

The stig is Not Damon Hill, nor has he ever been. Damon hill was a guest on the show last week.

That still doesn't mean it's him. When he exit's the studio he could get back into his white suit and there, we've got the Stig again. Second thing, in the last episode they thought about standng Damon Hill against the Stig to prove to people it's not him. They didn't allow it.

Yea its channel 566 i think.

I watched one where there was no James and instead there was a Fat man presenting

 

[G.T]

On NTL it's channel 809. I've only ever see the previous presenter once.

And even if they did, what's to say the bloke in the white suit AND FULL FACE HELMET is the usual Stig?


People who've actually been say that the identity of The Stig is not a constant. It's usually an un-named Touring Car driver, but it has been Damon on (at least) one occasion.

Man, that was an old show.

 

[Slick Rick]

You remember then? because i have no idea how old it is, im guessing about 2 years?
What do you think............Silverzone!

 

[ExigeEvan]

I remember when the fat guy was there. Don't remember him ever testing. Just doing teh news.

I also vaguley remember them taking the piss out of May on his first show

I watch the UKTV PPL channel sometimes, but not so much now TopGear is back on BBC2.

 

[725]

I missed this weeks, was the test slk vs boxster s any good?

 

[Dave A]

It was enjoyable to watch, couldve been better though. Not as good as the Rangerover Sport. I'm looking forward to the SLR v boat this week though.

 

[stumpydino]

ahh top gear is a brilliant car prog, pretty funny whats happening with jeremy's ford gt

 

[Dave A]

THey'll never let him live it down, it's funny but cruel. Still at least he's got one of the finest looking cars on sale, should've gone for the DB9 though, he liked that more and he'd have got THE finest looking car on sale.

The Rangerover sport was one of the best segments ever, IMO.

 

[kikie]

Maybe a stupid question but couldn't it be Richard Hammond on some occasions???

 

[TheCracker]

Richard Hammond! - what makes you think he's such a good driver - the fact that he's an ex local radio DJ?

 

[Slick Rick]

The cars were good but i think JC testing it with the army was boring.

 

[Impreza04]

He came 13/14 in a 2cv race.. i dont think so.

 

[Famine]

"I AM A DRIVING GOD!"

 

[G.T]

"I AM A DRIVING GOD!"

No wonder why he said it. Even though I wasn't driving, the experience was amazing. The driver of the Bowler I went in said Richard Hammond will be getting one by the end of this year.

 

[TheCracker]

demi-god maybe

 

[GilesGuthrie]

I concur with Famine. The Stig is multiple people. Ex and Current racers. I know, for example, that the driver of the Renault F1 car was Franck Montagny.

 

[TheCracker]

I concur with Famine. The Stig is multiple people.......

You saying The Stig has schizophrenia?

 

[Famine]

Maybe stigzophrenia?

*cue groaning*
