Top Gear tonight
(Preview)
Did anyone watch the Top Gear team destroy their caravans tonight? Not a good advertisement for the 2 English caravans but more so, not a good way to tow them in the first place! So ridiculously silly I found it hard to laugh - although my husband was having a good chuckle!
