Did anyone else watch topgear lastnight, and if so, was i the only one genuinely scared for them in that alabama petrol station? :P

That was hilarious...

(painted in pink on the side of Hammond's pickup truck) "Man-love is great, okay?"

And the cow. The bit with the cow was brilliant

Oh yes. Laughed my ass off, but was pretty scared at the same time. Strange feeling :twisted:

edit: cow... I laughed so hard I cried.

(On why James is late arriving to their designated meeting point)

"They've shot him haven't they? He just turned up, went "hellew" and they shot him"

(You have to bear in mind James's posh british accent for this to be humourous)

EDIT: From the wikipedia article:
Challenge 5 (Car decorating): The team had to decorate each other's cars with slogans which might lead to them getting shot at in Alabama. May painted pro-homosexual slogans on Hammond's car ("Man love rules OK"), Hammond painted "Country and Western is Rubbish" on Clarkson's, and Jeremy painted "Hilary for President" and "NASCAR sucks" on May's car. All three offended locals, and led to both the presenters and the crew members being chased out of town by friends of the garage owner.

Top Gear is pretty much the only show I actively try to watch every week on TV. Awesome show, great episode on sunday. Always wonder if it was set up to look like that, but it did seem pretty real ¬_¬
