Now, here at Hecklerspray sometimes even we have to hold our hands up and give begrudging praise where it is due.<\/strong><\/p>\n

So it is with a heavy heart that even we have to concede that Top Gear<\/em> is a fantastic TV show. It’s so good even people who aren’t particularly interested in cars like it. For God’s sake, even our mums like it. It’s that good.<\/p>\n

In fact, it’s so good, it can even afford to have that annoying, smug, pubic-haired twit Jeremy Clarkson<\/strong> in it – and still be good. It’s that good.<\/p>\n

But don’t just take our word for it. Take a look at the show’s best moments and judge for yourselves. And if you have some suggestions of you own, please let us know.<\/p>\n
