Saw that they blurred out Jeremy's PO this week on Top Gear. I've never seen this happen on this or any other show before.

Just thought it was interesting and share. Anyone else notice this? Also, what watch was Hammond wearing this week?

I noticed that too, very odd, like you say they've never done it before.
I did catch a small glimpse at Hammonds watch, from what I saw I'd put my money on it being a Uboat. Very flat high sides, brushed, and I didn't see a crown, most of them are left hooks.

I also noticed this and guessed that it was something to do with trying to maintain the continuity and timeline of the "film" they were trying to do across one single night.

A ha! Very keen thought. That show is edited to the hilt, and it makes sense that they'd obscure the time so that it's not obvious they are jumping around in the night.

Mr Clarkson's little night time trip was apparently filmed over several days, hence the reason why the clock in the Jaguar was obscured too..............................

Stop, stop, you're ruining the magic! :cry:

It might have something to do with that whole product placement legislation which was recently passed in the UK? I suspect the real reason is what others have speculated already, though.

LOL, sorry to spoil it, my info came from an inside source apparently!

There's no mistaking Hammond's Chrono Avenger when he's wearing it though!

My idol Clarkson would never lie to me, would he? :cry:

Bless the Hamster and his petite frame. No, there isn't.
