People who have been to Benidorm and Salou etc for their 2 weeks and think it gives them the right to dress like refugees on their return. I mean the wearing of trousers at half mast in sympathy for something or other and flip flops in the driving rain of Ulster with only the mere hint of redness on their normally grey over 40stone skin.

Another one that really gets me going is drivers on the motorway that drive in the fast lane at under 60mph and refuse to move over. They are normally engrossed in some idle chat about Coronation Street or about hair styles or something trivial. Also while on the subject, drivers in the fast lane that allow lorries or other slow moving traffic pull out in front of them to pass a vehile slugging it out at 58mph while they pass at 59mph. Jaysus give me some strength, patience and an RPG 7 to blow them to kingdom come.

Just a pale ...... very pale not even bordering on the very pale imitation. You have to admit though Clarkson does have a point. It must be a fifty something thing.

To be fair Colin, I find that the ones in the overtaking lane approaching Blacks Road are only there preparing to turn right at Moygashel.

There's only one flaw in Clarkson's theory about it being a fifty something thing - he's only two years away from 50 himself!

But yes, Clarkson definitely has a point (the man's a star).

...pointless, more like.

Top Gear has got to be the most predictable program on TV - a car test, somebody drives around a track, a bit of studio banter and some wacky race or competition.

For someone who rants against all things green, Clarkson does a hell of a lot of recycling... :stir:

Sky directors encouraging spectators to go OTT by having cameramen point cameras at them.

Spectators going OTT when cameras are pointed at them.

Spectators booing opposition kickers.

Those who kick the opposition deserve to be booed by spectators .... and dealt with by the referee! :wink:

There's a lot :stir: in there! I'll try to be restrained and just say that it's one of the best shows on TV. And those "wacky races" are genius.

Two lorries side by side on the M1 driving at 59 mph
