And then I guarantee that there'll be a thread with people slagging it off after the first episode, just like they did when it was on the BBC lol, before everyone went all misty eyed and started proclaiming it as the best thing ever when clarkson got sacked lol.

I for one could not have built my car without the people on this forum and without the Moderators we would be doomed.

You can just get the 30 days free Prime thing if you only want it for The Grand Tour (that's what I'm doing)

Looking forward to seeing it later, I wonder if those watching steams from other than Amazon get the same quality of picture, I have to say a lot of my enjoyment of TG, Chris Harris on cars etc comes from the beautiful cinematography and camerawork.

I watched walking dead last night on Amazon fire stick and although my processor said it was 1080p I thought the quality was pap and quite jerky at times even on a 40meg connection....will be interesting to see what Grand Tour is like. I am also going to see if you can put an Amazon app on to the Apple TV as I think that is better quality.

I have a prime subscription, I also have apple Tv and will stream prime from app through ATV, I do that with other stuff and its very good quality.
I also have KODI on my ATV and my phone and on an android box

I have this on my Raspberry Pi, I don't suppose you know if I can stream the show without having an Amazon account ?
Many thanks

baring in mind I'm an old fucker....how does these firesticks work? is it the latest content saved on the device that can be watched back at your leisure on any device that accepts it? do you need to buy new sticks weekly or monthly or whatever to watch the latest episodes ?

its not that complicated, its simply like a mini set top box thats allows you to stream videos on demand, has a video tutorial as soon as you set it up so you wont go wrong, all you need is a hdmi socket on your tv

One stick, one amazon prime subscription and then click on anything you want to watch.

Fuzzy, without wanting to derail the thread to a different topic, in a nutshell a Fire Stick is a little dongle you plug into your TV's HDMI port (and USB for power - adapter plug supplied) and connect to your wifi to access streaming content via the internet. It doesn't store anything, and the only thing it comes loaded with is the operating system/interface - no content is saved on it.
There is some free content on it (I believe, someone correct me if I'm wrong) but the whole idea is you have an Amazon Prime account, which costs Ł79 a year (Ł6.58 per month) and includes next day shipping (free I think?) on pretty much anything and everything you order from Amazon online. If you only want Prime Instant Video, it's Ł5.99 a month (saving Ł7.xx a year)
It's basically Amazons version of Netflix and Apple TV.
Hope this helps

I'm Finding My Feet Here Now
It's quite easy to find on the known torrent sites..
I'm now downloading it, will see if it's as good as it's hyped to be.
Can't be any worse than the new TopGear on the BBC (we got that in Holland too..)

A few of us watched it at a mate's house over the weekend. It was ok, pretty much as expected to be honest.
Still beautifully shot and the odd amusing moment. Will be interesting to see how it develops.
Was surprised by the outcome of the hot laps of the trio, not the result I expected.

Hot laps were on a control tyre, the cars are each designed around individual rubber, on their 'best' tyres the Macca is fastest, Evo did this a while back as I think Harris did before Top Gear

You would have thought that as they tour the globe, each episode would have something to do with where they were? Otherwise what's the point of it being "The Grand Tour" ?
Reporting on car events mostly in Portugal and UK from the USA seems a bit, well, pointless? Or was I missing the link?
Enjoyable enough as a show, even if i think Clarkson is an over-opinionated-attention-seeking twat.

Just watched part 1 of Namibia special, was good to watch and loved the beach buggies, especially Hammonds one. I did not like all the swearing though as my 8 yr old was enjoying it with me but had to turn it off whilst she was in the room.
