More detailed info from TG homepage (look at the pic ):



Don’t adjust your sets folks, because this week Top Gear really is going green.

On our most environmentally friendly show to date, our intrepid presenters have a go at growing their own biofuel. But to do the job properly, first they need to test some really massive tractors on the Top Gear test track.

We then resume normal service as Jeremy tests the latest model from the daddy of supercar manufacturers – Lamborghini.

Also, actress Kristin Scott-Thomas adds a much needed touch of class to the proceedings, as she becomes a star in a reasonably priced car.

Sry, but what are you laughing at?
Either you didn't look carefully enough or you have absolutely no sense of humor...

Im just wondering when they are gonna test the Saleen S7. Every other supercar seems to be a foregone conclusion..........

They tested the GT500, they tested the Z06........now why on earth cant they test the most Americas supercar of them all: The Saleen S7.

Just finished watching. I really don't like the direction TopGear is going lately. A train smashing into an Espace, over half an hour of tractor-nonsense without an actual end result, an interview which was more about Jeremy in love than about cars and just one(!) car-test! Ok, the LP640 isn't just some car, but the whole show is getting ridiculous...

I absolutely LOVED the LP640 bit, brilliant! But I hated the part with the tractors, it was funny at times, but I absolutely don´t see the need of highlightings this throughout the episode, especially when we have to wait a year to see the result!
