[After Jeremy's film on the Zenvo STI, which ended with the car catching fire]
How much is this thing?
How much? …£800,000.
[surprised tone] 800?!
Yes.
Are there any upsides to it?
Uh, upsides, yes. The fire did get rid of the condensation in the lights. [laughter]
Apart from the fire?
Apart from the fire… Yes, it's surprisingly comfortable and very quiet.
Well, it would be quiet. It was broken.
[On The Stig]
Some say that this week he is wearing two layers of Nomex. [slow-building laughter] And that on a recent trip to Cornwall, he stopped off for one of his special big wees in Somerset. [laughter] All we know is he's called The Stig!
How's it go?
[quoting The Charge of the Light Brigade by Alfred, Lord Tennyson] "Theirs not to make reply, Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do and die."
"Into the valley of Death rode the six hundred."
And that is the valley.
That is where the Charge of the Light Brigade actually happened.

Somebody said here, [reading] "Why have you only got 200,000 followers?" And you replied, "Jesus only needed 12." [laughter] You've got to admit… they are properly very funny. [reading] "James Blunt has an annoying face and a highly irritating voice." You went, "Yes, and no mortgage "
