Default Top Gear Question!

Just wondering if any of you guys have got last weeks episode of Top Gear on their computer??

My mate was on it and Clarkson made him look like a complete twat and I wanna take screen captures of Clarkson grabbing his face!! If anyone saw it he is the very ugly bloke that Clarkson was talking to in the audience and my mate ignored him, then old clarky grabbed his cheeks and generally abused him on national tv and you can see the reason for me wanting the screen grabs so I can email them around as he works for HSBC HQ in Ascot and he could actually be dealing with YOUR money right now!!!!

His nickname is Peanut....see if you can tell why!


And if anyone does have this on their HD and want a friend for life could someone "grab" the bit I am on about??!! If not please PM the file!!


Please help me guys as this is QUALITY email abuse fodder!!!


We also plan on then Photoshopping some funny speech bubbles next to him/Clarkson as its his 23rd Brithday in a few weeks and we wanna have em for this!!



*fingers crossed*



Kindest regards,

Pete

Apparantly his excuse for looking like that is coz Clarkson is his hero and he just froze like a bunny in the headlights!!
