Best film ever. Should win an award in whatever the hell An Inconvenient truth got nominated for.

From Victor Lewis Smith's "TV Offal" which ran from '97-'98.

Great series...

I almost want that to be true everytime I see him destroy a car for no reason.

but i like JC's analogy's! am i alone here? I agree his latest material is pretty biased but when he done motorworld and the car years he demonstrated some appreciable journalistic talent, capturing the viewer because of good content not his (entertaining) presenting style. If we did lose him it would be a shame, we would be left with all the serious presenters.

I agree entirely. I happen to like him, he's a very intelligent and generally well-meaning bloke. If anyone has read The World According to Clarkson and its follow-up book, they'd know that the supposedly amusing video is a load of shit.

do you remember someone complaining that the DVD this video is extracted from said that mustang horse beat a supposedly mustang GT, the guy was fuming because it was the crummy v6 he drove instead. How can Americans in this clip not know about europe this badly though?

Yup, that'll be Slicks :D

And the general rule is 'do as I say, not as I do'. Hypocriticism = <3

So if you'd have seen the Vanessa Feltz "obituary" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iubl0DC-KQ8) first you would never have found that funny?

You're average European, on the other hand knows the local of each American state, and their capitals along with all the European countries and theirs...

Poor education is poor education wherever you go.

Not really, that's someone else I admire and respect quite a lot. I've met her before, and she was amusing, charming and full of life and scathing wit. I don't find many of these "humourous" programmes about other people dying that amusing- why rip them to pieces because they've been successful?

If there was one about Jade Goody, I still wouldn't find it funny in the slightest- or anyone else, for that matter.

Because people will find it funny seeing the piss taken out of someone famous, who they'll know more about than some random off the street. You've never made fun of someone for a few laughs?

Plus, it wasn't exactly a scathing attack on the man, and I'd wager pretty confidently that JC would love it.

Only as a last resort, I see your point there... Mum used to hate Jeremy C. I'm more bovvered about the mistruths quoted in the videos, that's all.

Ooh! So sorry, but as a fat, stupid, lazy American, I happen to know a bit about Europe too!

I guess you're just pissed about losing us back in the 18th century.

now that one isn't funny :(

Making fun of someone's mannerisms is one thing but doing a 2.43 piece on someone being fat??

Or if you aren't sure who Vannessa Feltz is. I take it she is Britain's Rosie O'Donnel equivalent, or maybe Oprah equivalent?
