now watch their ratings shoot up in mexico
 

Unfortunately, we live in a time where people have no sense of humour. Their day consists of getting up, showering, having a cup of coffee and then looking for something that offends them so they can complain about it, or sue for some easy money

The day Clarkson, Hamster and May become PC, is the day I stop watching them.

Matt (un-PC and proud of it 8-))

It's down to the BBC to air the comments I don't blame the guys at all.

[url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-1353230/Top-Gear-faces-legal-action-Mexican-woman-Richard-Hammonds-jibe.html]Iris de la Torre, a jewellery design student in London, is bringing the claim under a new equality law. Her lawyers claim it could cost the BBC

While I'm sure someone at the bbc will issue an appology to calm the situation. I dont doubt for one second that before screening it they made sure their bases were covered over it.
Also I doubt for a second anyone at the beeb has the grapefruits to actually tell the presenters off, simply because these guys are a ratings bringer, and Clarkson owning the top gear rights, could bugger off to ITV or channel 4 in a heartbeat.

Personally I quite like Mexican food 8-)
However I must say they were being very moderate about Mexicans. They didn't mention beheadings from drug wars and bodies turning up in mine shafts etc.
Frankly the Mexican ambassador can bite me! I've only come across a couple of Mexicans that have impressed me... and none of them have been around for a half century or so

Speaking of Top Gear, the Stig's Nevada cousin has been arrested for that $1.5M casino robbery in Vegas.   ;D

  Come on now, that joke was on Top Gear last week when Jeremy saw this pretty American girl and told her she couldn't be American, she's not fat enough.  (rerun of course)

As hardcore American as I am, even I can laugh at their jokes 

And I will say, I enjoy the American version of Top Gear, but the British version is much funnier.

He (the ambassador) needs to watch the episode where the trio tour the American southeast....there are loads of hilarious stereotypes in that episode.

I liked the one where they took the three muscle cars from San Fran to Utah.  I knew he would wind up falling in love with the Cadillac  8-)

I am loving the new season. Any episode where they take a trip together is usually fantastic, especially when they buy cheap old cars.
I think I want to find a BMW and replicate Captain Slow's Afrika Korps Beemer 

This week was a good one. The Snowbine Harvester...I wonder if I should drop off a copy of the program to Claas down the road from me. They should be quite proud. Also they should realise a dam good idea when they see one
And Amber Heard, star in a car, now that had me on the floor
