Jaguar F-Type

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Jeremy Clarkson drives the new Jaguar F-type sports car on some of Britain’s finest roads, James May takes the New Bus for London for a nice day out in the country and Richard Hammond tests the new Range Rover Sport offroad, on track and in its most natural habitat, the lanes of Cheshire.Inspired by these machines, the presenters meet up for an epic celebration of all that is great about Britain’s motor industry, culminating in a grand finale in front of Buckingham Palace.

Our Take

A pleasant, patriotic hour that leans on British pride more than actual comedy. The F-Type film is the highlight, with Clarkson clearly having fun, while May’s bus trip is charming but thin. The Buckingham Palace finale lands nicely even if the whole “isn’t Britain great” theme gets a bit labored. Solid stuff, just don’t expect big laughs.
