Jeremy Clarkson and the iPhone

Beauty (iPhone) and the beast.....

Ditch the """""Celebrities""""" Top Gear and go back to how the program was meant to be. No pathetic stunts, Drag strip Rocket cars, Filling cars with water, need I go on....??

A completely **** show end of.
 
As with all things, if you don't like it, don't associate yourself with it. I don't like Bargain Hunt, but I don't go on the Bargain Hunt forum (If indeed there is one, which I'm sure there will be!) and slag it off. If you want a sensible car show, watch Fifth Gear.
 
How can you not love Bargain Hunt, that host always seems drunk.
 
The funny thing about this is its a hacked Iphone from the US that he uses. He was on the BBC1 morning show and told everyone he had one soon after the release in the US and his was not set up to do edge so he could only use it when he had a WiFi connection.

He said he was thinking about getting a "proper one" now that they are selling in the UK.

I know it's just your opinion, but your opinion is wrong.

Erm... "Pathetic stunts"? Are we both watching the same programme?

The stunts and challenges are by far the best bit.
 
The episode where they went to America was definitely the best one I have ever seen. Clarkson may be not particularly PC but, that's what tis country needs these days!
 
Hopefully they never Americanize it (Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares anyone?)....that would be the end of it. :(

I think we are safe...Clarkson isn't too fond of us anyway.
 
Hahaha. Well, if what Clarkson says is true, him owning an iPhone automatically makes it uncool and nobody should buy one:D

Also, The video segments (like the chalange last week) are filmed during the off season. The footage of clarkson's v3 would be a couple months old.
 
Yeah I saw him calculating on it too, and thought o_O

Richard Wilson (Victor Meldrew) has one also. I met him in the Manchester Arndale store whilst he was waiting for a genius.

I don't belieeeve it. How can he work out that bladdy technical gadgetry nonsense. :D


Clarkson = win. Glad he has taste in phones :)

It's a shame he won't get into politics (said on the Jonothan Ross thing he can't be arsed) but hey... he's a bit to politically incorrect for all that anyway :D

Now, I have an idea, why don't I calculate how much time we just wasted...
 
iPhone: Seriously Uncool

That is right folks. The iPhone is now officially seriously uncool. Why?

Because Jeremy Clarkson has one. If you were watching Top Gear last Sunday you would have seen that during the news that he was using one. Which by Cool Wall standards (God rest its soul) makes the iPhone seriously uncool. :(

The Stig has spoken... I think this thread can be concluded now. :)
 
Are these American Top Gear episodes just being shortened for commericals or is there actually a different reason for the editing?
Most likely just being shortened to allow the show to fit into an American TV hour. Do you get the news section and the Star In A Reasonably Priced Car in the American version? Lots of the news items (and lots of the stars) wouldn't mean anything to an American audience.
 
Clarkson has the iPhone therefore it's cool :)

If you turned up on a date with Kristen Scott Thomas and had to phone a cab to get both of you back to yours for 'coffee' and she saw you dial one the cab on your iPhone...she'd be impressed :D

P.S Stig are you the stig?
 
He's not actually using the calculator on it though, he's not pressing/sliding in the right positions.

Unless it's just part of an edit...
 
the iPhone is still cool though because if you remember only cars are allowed on the cool wall as when Hammond put a motorbike on clarkson took a chainsaw to it. So the rules of the cool wall only apply to cars.
