About this product
Product Information
I was Top Gear's script editor for 13 years and all 22 series. I basically used to check spelling and think of stupid gags about The Stig. I also got to hang around with Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May. It didn't feel like something you should get paid for. From the disastrous pilot show of 2002 to the sudden and unexpected ending in 2015, working on Top Gear was quite a rollercoaster ride. We crossed continents, we made space ships, we bobbed across the world's busiest shipping lane in a pick-up truck. We also got chased by an angry mob, repeatedly sparked fury in newspapers, and almost killed one of our presenters. I realised that I had quite a few stories to tell from behind the scenes on the show. I remembered whose daft idea it was to get a dog. I recalled the willfully stupid way in which we decorated our horrible office. I had a sudden flashback to the time a Bolivian drug lord threatened to kill us. I decided I should write down some of these stories. So I have. I hope you like them. And now, a quote from James May: 'Richard Porter has asked me to write a quote for his new book about the ancient history of Top Gear. But this is a ridiculous request. How can one write a quote ? Surely, by definition, a quote must be extracted from a greater body of writing, for the purpose of illustrating or supporting a point in an unrelated work. I cannot write a quote any more than I could film an out-take . 'Porter, like Athens, has lost his marbles.' - James May

- c***e (193)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseVery pleased with the items, as I purchased this with 4 other books. They came as described, on time & well packed. The only minor gripe was that the seller advertised buy 3 books get one free, but at the check out it wouldn't give me the offer until I purchased 4 books then I got a free one. I have used this seller on many occasions & will continue to do so, as they have always provided very good items at a very reasonable price with good serviceViz Annual 2019 The Pieman's Wig: A Hair-Raising Weave of the Best Bits from (#382715947734)
