"James swallows a goose" that one killed me😂

[@Eeben93]

Omg, the gay panic in Hammonds eyes when James tells him he enjoyed spending the day with him and how nice it is to take someone out on a nice dinner. Looks like he's asking himself: "fellas, is it gay to eat a nice dinner with your cohost?" Lmao

[@amyy2403]

it is quite amusing

[@leetaylor1824]

I reckon in the first clip is the moment Jeremy and Richard thought to themselves 'us three are going to make a great team'.

[@TheEternalWayfarer]

They are perfectly balanced. Clarkson is flamboyant, Hammond is happy, and May is... May. He's that friend who doesn't speak very much, but when he does he puts out the right word or the finest joke. There's no Top Gear without any of them. And they know it. About him playing recorder and toy keyboard: he studied music at Lancaster University, specifically piano and flute. Also, if you watch some reactions by Clarkson to his jokes (like "object the beige"), you can tell that he has also some improvisation skills. Jezza was sincerely laughing there.
