Talking Grand Tour -Winching

Just watched James May on today's Grand Tour mud plugging. Very funny as was the Electric BMW v Golf GTi challenge.

Best bit is the Nissan Patrol out dragging the Porsche 918 !

Default Just watched Episode 12 again !

Just watched the above again as the banter between the trio I thought was at it's scripted best.
I loved the speech input Satnav bit and the Bentyga/ Range Rover / F-Pace banter.

Particularly enjoyed the Micky take on Porsche Launch Control at the Car Wash and Drive-In lol.

I enjoyed the series, I like a bit of puerile humour.
May gets out of car with arm in a sling, "I've broken my arm" he says.
Hammond: "Which one?"
