This is getting stupid - the level of knobishness in this country is getting out of control! Do people purely sit in front of the TV for the sole reason of finding something to complain about? Good god these people need to get out more!

haz87

Oh ffs

Benni

Always the way; the same sad people watch it looking for something to complain about.

Benni.

Graceland

FFS - He was not drink driving - technically he was pilotting a vessile in international waters, and there are no "drink drive" laws there

woodz77

heard that on Radio 1 this morning ........... but why has it took so long to get moaned about ?

Graceland

Someone saw a repeat on Dave

tabetha

That's what I thought, they don't have DD laws there surely ?
I know that's not the point of the complaint, and know the damage DD's do, but I did not see anything to warrant a complaint, mind you if watching top gear anyway they do need to get out more IMO.

Benni

Graceland

HMMMM!!

But Carole Whittingham, the founder of the Campaign Against Drink Driving, said that Top Gear was sending out the “wrong messages” to viewers.
“For some time I have been thinking that the programme has lost its focus,” she said. “It used to be about promoting vehicles and safe driving and I remember appearing on the show to talk about uninsured drivers, but the format has changed radically since then.”
She added: “Nowadays it seems to glamorise inappropriate behaviour such as exceeding the speed limit and drinking at the wheel. I am hugely disappointed at the flippancy with which they promote unsafe driving and can’t understand why the BBC allows this to happen.”

Well, she sounds like a barrell of laughs dosn't she? Imagine people who "gasp!" " who exceed the speed limit"... Worse than rapists those lot, hangings too good for them etc... ..

Tell you what then turn the TV off love, and go and score some cock.. I bet she is a wrinkled old mess, with nothing better to do in her sad life

HoylaRS

you've been had mate!

rigdoctor

sounds like it mate he did say he`d cashed the cheque not heard owt for 2 weeks tho 135 quid down the drain robbin git

HoylaRS

payment on delivery is what i live by!

rigdoctor

think same for me now my own fault

Oranoco

Heard this on Radio 1 this morning. Had he drank on a road then fair do's a complaint could be understood.

FFS never mind the fact they drove a 4x4 to the North pole and all that was involved in the feat somebody moans about him having a sip of drink in the middle of a fucking frozen ocean.

Surprised some cunt didn't complain about them using the wrong sort of vehicle and that they should have done it in a Prius

Noisy Boy

good thing tho you know the guys on top gear dont give a fuck lol!

Iain Mac

Who or what exactly was likely to be harmed or damaged by them even if they had got completely shit-faced and set off at top speed (which, in those conditions, was about 3 miles an hour)?

danboy

some people really need to get a life, they were having a bit of fun.... and in no way does it make me want to jump in me car and drink+drive..

vikingboy

" ....viewers "might regard the presenters as role models". "

right the fuck'o........LMAO.

tabetha

The "challenge" was a piss take anyway, they had back up from start to finish, no doubt thier insurers would not cover them on thier todd as they would die out there with no one having a clue.
It was a good programme though.

PSL

Exactly what I was thinking. That episode was ages ago

What a load of bollocks, bet its the same type of person who whines about young
kids playing on the grass outside.

dunketh

I totally agree. Just imagine the sheer amount of viewers who've driven to the north pole in a modified off roader under the influence of drink since this was aired....
Not to mention the sheer volumes of Jag XJS owning viewers who've tried to smuggle their cars onto large naval vessels?

Its out of control I tell you!

Neil1984

For God's sake - they were in the middle of the Arctic, no roads, no other cars, nothing. What the hell were they going to crash into?

What annoys me is the fact that it only takes a few complaints from sad individuals for it to ruin it for all the people who enjoy it. The BBC seems to take the stance "someone complained, we cant do that again".

LOL!
