Top Gear Series 6

Missing Restoration Rip-Off

edit

What happened with Restoration Rip-Off? I want to see the mini.... can't find the episode

Heathrow airport to Oslo challenge

edit

Featuring the Oresund bridge. Clarkson claims that it is a beautiful beautiful beautiful bridge. However one of the pictures shown in the sequence is actually the Great Belt East bridge and not the Oresund bridge.

Unknown town

edit

The name of the town Hammond and May end up in is never mentioned in the show. It probably doesn't matter, but I've tried locating it on Google Earth — without success. The only clues are that it's within 50 of Oslo (after the race, Clarkson says, "When we were 50 miles from Oslo, we were neck-in-neck"), the background location when Hammond and May get off the boat and the currency is the Krona (Hammond said a cash machine in a wall showed that).

Also it's on the coast, it's large enough to have a cashpoint, you can catch a bus to Oslo from it, and it's in whatever direction they were heading in from the ferry. That should narrow it down *slightly*...
(BTW, try google maps, bing maps, or openstreetmap instead of Earth. Earth is pretty bad for showing mapping details such as town names... oh, PS, "neck AND neck". It's a horse racing term ;) )146.90.85.13 (talk) 12:17, 15 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

QI Club

edit

Was it ever anything to do with the TV show? The link goes to the show's wiki page, which has no mention of it whatsoever. A quick google shows that it was maybe an occasional activity club briefly run by the programme makers, but possibly not an actual physical thing per se. There has however been a "private members club" called either Qi or QI in Oxford that might be completely unrelated, and there are various regular nightclubs also called Qi (presumably pronounced "key" or "kwee") around the country. Any clues? 146.90.85.13 (talk) 12:16, 15 November 2014 (UTC)Reply
