On another note, is it just me or did they not make any mention of missing a week due to the golf? Usually they make a comment that they won't be on the following week.

I watched the Bernie interview, short and pointless? As Pete-p said, nothing new either.
 Last show in this series they said.

I note in the press that praise for Matt Le Blanc is high and I agree, I think the trio really work well together. As an aside, I overtook Jeremy Clarkson on the M4 last week. At first I didn't notice it was him, I'd slowed to look at a brand new, orange, Audi TT RS and he was driving. He looked over and me and I think he liked the S8! He was behind me for ages and then peeled off for the A34 at Newbury. Hello JC if you're reading this!
