The Grand Tour: A Scandi Flick
If you like the Grand tours episodes, you will like this one.
One of the better of the recent versions. I was giggling and laughing a lot. This may shock you all, but it has some rather silly parts, funny but silly. I loved it. My inner child loved it.

I don't know, it was OK, more of the same to me.
I was wondering if James might've really gotten hurt... rjp

I’ve always wanted an RS4… but my limited budget made me choose another Porsche.

I wonder how the show deals with the environmental issues of the tour.

I would guess the studded tires played a role in Captain slows accident.

It was OK at first but went downhill. I don't like the pranks that make them angry at each other, those were stupid. We want to see these guys laughing and joking with each other, that is what makes them great together.

The bit with the towed houses on runners was hilarious, especially on the ski slope. The rest was so so. Beautiful scenery though…

The Captain Slo incident was scary. Did not expect that.
Overall, it was a funny and great episode. Here's a post-episode chat with Hammond and May about the cars and the trip. ** Warning ** Spoilers in the video ** Warning **

I wonder if May really punched through the lake or did they stage that. Also, three guys using a capstan to pull it out of the water is hard to believe.
It did make me want to tour Norway.

That WRX was nice! Can't believe May crashed that EVO.
