I thought there were one or two long shots that showed both of them passing each other on the edge? It's been a while since I watched it though so I may be wrong!

Clarkson was genuinely scared though, he must be a good actor if he wasn't.

I think I would be genuinely scared too ... at pretty much any point on that road...
You're right there were a couple of long shots of the Rangey and Land Cruiser together - that showed it was tight, but not as tight as the close-ups of the Rangey's wheel would suggest. I also have a suspicion that Land Cruiser was a support vehicle for the trip, not some barmy local. |

In the long shots the R-R's front tyre in particular was obscured by another rock outcrop or similar. The 'actual' pass would still have been tight enough I think, just not suicidal.

I never minded the cool wall. They only did it once a season anyways.

There's been paper talk that they're planning a film version - a round-the-world trip not dissimilar to Long Way Round. A circumnavigation of the globe, if you want to call it that
You can just imagine how that would start, can't you? RH: "We had a meeting with the production team a few months and and we decided it would be a good idea to make a Top Gear film...unfortunately, Jeremy walked into the room..." *grand intro with flashing lights, thunder, lightning and a giant airship shaped like the Stig's head" JC: "Yes, I decided we should do a circumcision of the globe in a race against each other. Hammond down there is in a 20 year old Land Rover. Captain Slow is in a Fiat Panda...his Fiat Panda. The Stig is going to use up half the planet's oil in a Koenigsegg. And I will in be this giant balloon" Last edited by jab; 7 Feb 2010 at 17:35. |
