Apparently the Allegro shown at the end belonged to my friend Simple Sarah from Coventry. She texted me excitedly when she saw it.

Was ok to watch but not as good as previous specials. My favorite is the vietnam one, i can watch that over and over.

The dullest one yet , just a re-hash of other ideas in a dilute form . The Vietnam one cannot be topped to be fair

I watched it last night. Agreed, it wasnt as good as past specials. The cars didnt break down for a start. However, the Lawnmower trundling along in various shots did make me laugh...oh and that poor Mini.

As Christmas entertainment went, i think that it was one of the best programmes on the telly. Agreed, it wasn't as funny as the others, but, when he pulled the front off the Mini, I was in stitches.

Richard Hammond made it worth watching, the other two were just a PITA IMHO. 6/10

It was, but incredibly staged, they had the camera angle already set up and even though it was making a racket pulling Mays car he didnt even glance in the minis direction ?

Its the 'staged' thing thats spoiling it a bit for me these days.
