A birdwatcher since his childhood in Birmingham, Oddie has now established a reputation for himself as an ornithologist, conservationist and television presenter on wildlife issues."

I don't get it either. Hell, I just went to a wife swapping party Saturday!

I quite like Clarkson, yes he does say something's that annoy me and yes he didn't look too favorably on the 370, but he didn't like the 350, so what did we expect. I was more annoyed with Hammond for not sticking up for it, but in this weeks show he more than redeemed himself (I won't spoil it if you haven't seen it yet).

Also, let’s not forget, without Clarkson, that show would not have been made and would not be what it is today - you just have to put up with some of the crap as the good stuff more than makes up for it.

just my 2 cents worth
