Classic! Stephen Fry, but without the wit!!

Felt last nights programme was scripted, and just not spontaneous. Did the conversation with the producer go something like...

May, Clarkson and Hammond - "We'll do something original this time"
Producer - "Oh good!"
MCH - "We'll go somewhere really out of the way, buy cars, and then travel a long way over some difficult terrain."
P - "Ah-ha..."
MCH - "Let's go to South America, buy three cars sight-unseen, and then drive them through some really hot, high and dangerous terrain. May will have something stupid, Hammond will get something obvious, and Clarkson will get something unreliable."
P - "Ah-ha..."
MCH - "We'll camp out, break down, say rude things, paint slogans on the cars, and then modify them."
P - OK, but we can't afford to send a VW Beetle as the sweep-up car this time - budget cuts."
MCH - "OK, let's go!"

Been there, seen that, done it...
