Top Gear greenlaning article?

I've been told Top Gear did one of their comedy sketches revolving around green laning, did anyone catch it? I might have to see if it's on iPlayer.

It's on BBC iPlayer. Clarkson as the fox and Hammond with 1 HP!

Cheers

yes. I saw it. Not really a lot to do with green laning, and i hope that people are sensible enough to realise this! (though i bet theres somebody wearing a bobble hat already writing their complaint letter!). It was entertaining (as top gear generally is!). Plenty of rambler digs!.

clarkson was a fox (driving a brown 4x4 thing), and was chased by the hunt. It involved him tearing through fields and hedges and woodland while being chased. Looks like it was all just filmed on a private estate rather than on any lanes! (he was mainly in fields and the like).

It will be on iplayer.

How much are we betting some dribble of bobble hat arse prolapse rings in to moan, even though it was on private land & quite funny.

That heap of c*ck or whatever the f*ck it was called didn't do that bad actually.

I am sure I spotted the cover for the towing eye missing from the bumper part way through. I think perhaps My Clarkson had a bit of help off camera getting unstuck.

The camera wagon following the hampster looked like a 90 V8 that i've seen working at Chelt Racecourse during Gold Cup. Said 90 is a nice sounding beast. So i would guess thats what did the pulling out of the Terios thing what Hammond was driving.

I've just watched it and suspect it's not going to be held up as particularly useful by the green laning community ;-)

Gerroff! It got stuck at least 3 times!

What Hamster was driving? ah you mean the horse- big brownish thing tail one end head other, Hamster hanging on like grim death in the middle. Hamster does of course have a few Landies of his own

as well as his Series 1 and if he still has it the old RRC. You don't suppose he loaned the camera crew the 110? Derek
