[During the opening sequence.]
JeremyTonight, I do a skid. Richard steals some tyres. And James gets kicked in the face.
[On The Stig]
JeremySome say that he's the only man in Britain who knows what B&Q stands for. And that he can't give his million-pound bonus back because he's already spent it... on French breast implants. All we know is... he's called The Stig.
[On Chinese manufacture of counterfeit products, including copying of car designs]
Jeremy[on the street, wearing a host of knockoff clothes] The Chinese are very good at this sort of thing. I'm speaking to you now from behind a pair of fake Ray-Bans, wearing a fake Armani jacket, carrying a fake Louis Vuitton bag in which we find a fake iPad and a fake iPhone. And if we consult my fake Omega, we see that it's twenty-five to three. Probably. Which means it's time to pop into the fake Starbucks over there for a cup of fake coffee. It seems then that the expression "copyright infringement" doesn't translate terribly well into Mandarin.
[During the opening sequence.]
JeremyTonight, I drive around a field. James measures a runway. And Richard lays a cable.
[On The Stig]
JeremySome say that he has 50,000 photographs of his own camera. [laughter] And that 60 years ago this week, he, too, became a queen.
[During the opening sequence.]
JeremyTonight, I wear a hat. James wears a hat. And Richard is behind a low wall.
[On The Stig]
JeremyTo find out, we need a man skilled in the potent cocktail of big horsepower and little grip. And luckily, just such a man is arriving now. He's not the Stig's Alpine cousin, he's just The Stig.
[The Stig is seen arriving in a hovercraft]
Apparently he's come all the way across the North Sea in that.
[Jeremy's out-of-control Pro Rider mobility scooter is seen going down hill and eventually crashes into some trees while off camera Jeremy helplessly shouts a meme]
JeremyFenton! Fenton! Fenton! Oh, Jesus Christ!
[While test driving the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe Black Series]
JeremyThrough the corners there's just no way that I can keep up with the man in the Maserati because he is driving a racing car and I... I'm wrestling a mad yellow bear! This, honestly, is Winnie The Pooh with road rage.
[In the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale]
JeremyIf you take the gearbox out of race mode and put it in everyday "going to the shops" auto, it sits down there, in the bowels of the car thinking,
"Now, he's just pulled that lever, that means I have to do something. What is it? I have to bake a cake? No... Mow the lawn? No... I know! I'm a gearbox! He's pulled the lever, that means he wants third!"
It's so dim-witted and slow in normal mode, it makes the whole car feel like it isn't joined up properly.
[On The Stig]
JeremySome say that he is the only man in history to buy a DFS sofa when there wasn't a sale on. And that his favourite boxing venue is Munich Airport. All we know is, he's called The Stig.
[On The Stig]
JeremySome say that he stores all his shoes and his cassette tapes on the motorway central reservation. And that since he can easily stay quiet for two hours, he's wondering why he didn't win an Oscar. All we know is, he's called The Stig.
JeremyCome on, Gary! Gary, I'm going to get you! I've got Gary up my chuff here and I'm trying to take Gary on the inside. [voiceover] Then the super-modified Garys put me in my place. [the car behind Jeremy rams him on to the grass] I may be off the track slightly here.
[On The Stig]
JeremySome say that we have at least thought of a new way of introducing him. But we haven't. It's The Stig!
[While going into a theatre in the P45]
JeremyThis is the joy of a P45. Everything is a drive-through.
