Everyone has an opinion on bad cars... now it's time to hear the ones that really count--ours...
As it's the worst car in the history of the WORLD, we're on our travels ... to the North of England ... to name and shame the most rubbish car from a manufacturer which, frankly, should have known better. But, it's not all about hateful cars ... Oh no. You have to revel in some good ones to appreciate the stinkers. There's the Ferrari 458 spider, Toyota's GT86 and the £340,000 Lexus LFA rubbing shoulders with a Mercedes SLS.
Our guest driver, The Stig's Yorkshire cousin, puts his whippet to one side and throws a BMW M5 round a gymkhana course before we have a go in a couple of Transatlantic challengers. Things don't go well. We spend treasured leisure time on the golf course continuing our debate. That doesn't go well either. We even put our own cars--past and present--into the reckoning. That ends badly too.
We argue over the great and the awful from Peugeot, Ford, Mahindra, FSO, Alfa Romeo, Rolls Royce, Porsche, Citroen, Saab ... and many more. And we have a special, surprise fate in store for the car we
pick as our biggest loser...
Enjoy... Jeremy Clarkson

Leonardo da Vinci笔下画作《Salvator Mundi》自2017年以$4.5亿美元成交后,一举为世人所熟知,更被称为男版《Mona Lisa》,殊不知这幅画最初是在New Orleans一家乏人问津的拍卖行寻得,当时更仅以$ 1,100美元售出,在经过寻常的廉价工法修复时才真正令隐藏的精湛画技被重新注意,随后价值水涨船高,尽管至今仍有不少人质疑它出自Leonardo da Vinci之手的真实性。
而纪录片《The Lost Leonardo》便是以《Salvator Mundi》为题,深入探讨其神秘起源与阴暗面,同时除了艺术本身,更带到了伴随艺术的权力金钱斗争,背后牵扯的正式金字塔顶层的人与全球最具权势的艺术机构。
Gripping documentary investigating the full story of Ashley Madison, the controversial dating site that marketed itself to adulterers, and which was hacked, with users' details made public
Terminally ill Janette wants to die with dignity, but it’s not possible in the UK, where she lives. She therefore decides for assisted suicide. She must plan her journey to Switzerland before her rapidly advancing disease makes it impossible. The question of whether we own our own lives or whether they own us is the primary impetus behind this documentary portrait, which shows that death can be good despite the sadness that always accompanies it. The film, with dramatically suggestive camera work, uses feature film techniques, and engaging characters and stories of their loved ones are interwoven with Janette’s story.
"Let's talk about death because we will all die someday. The question is: can we choose when and how? I think we should." T. Krupa
