It was a pornography store. I was buying pornography.

you guys that hate stewart lee should at least be aware that he's 100% deliberately trying to be an unfunny, narcissistic and pretentious rear end in a top hat character

you shoudl also watch comedy vehicle season 3 because it's probably the best one yet, his UKIP bit is brilliant, drags on too long and becomes unfunny, becomes funny because it's dragged out so long and then gets all weird and surreal

doing things because they're ironic doesn't make them funny.

I wish they would end Top Gear so that James May had even more time to make his own shows building Meccano bridges, Lego houses and giant Scalextric tracks :shobon:

I guess Hammond was sort of watchable in Brainiac, but Clarkson spinoffs are just ugh

Your human mentality cries out for vengeance and thrives on the violence you say you can hardly endure.
I mean I would recommend his earlier comeback material and especially 90s comedian as it has a minimum of weird postmodern stuff if you're not into that, but most of his material is best when considered in the context of a whole hour-long show as it's all self referential and doesn't really cut up well into short bites (and when people do view small bits they inevitably watch the first minute of the top gear rant and then close the window)

but if you don't like him that's totally cool, i certainly thought he was poo poo at one point

Every three months the BBC should send James May a check for a million pounds and have a camera crew follow him for a week.

I want all Top Gear presenters to die a horrible death, but James can be quick and painless.

The show is alright and I like the three of them on the show, especially since they don't much seem to like each other.

If I was stuck in an elevator with any of them personally, James May is probably the one I'd be least likely to punch in the face after a couple of hours.

So yeah

Haven't seen that in years, loving laffo. It also makes me a bit sad that Harry kinda lost his stride and doesn't do sketches (or anything?) anymore.
I love Top Gear because I love cars and I love all the exotic places they get to go to with exotic metal. Neither of the 3 are ideal, but have you ever watched any Top Gear spinoffs? The American one is loving terrible, at least to me.

ALso, hahahhaha fuckme :

(don't watch any more after that because it's McIntyre and he needs a punch as much as that Stewart Lee)
