"Do you know, I think he's sleeping."

Seriously. How did I live without these programmes?
I'm glad you all liked your Five Things lists! They were monumentally fun to write.
Also, the spell-check is telling me that it doesn't like 'programme'. I am torn between being ashamed and thinking I may actually be right: someone please tell me how to spell it properly?
THIS PROGRAMME IS RIDICULOUSLY GAY NOW. And I mean that in the real sense of the word, not the horrible slang way it's used (which is one of the words I absolutely hate, and I don't really mind what people call each other...as long as it's not that).
THERE WERE LEG GROPING ACCUSATIONS. THEY WEREN'T COMPETENTLY DENIED. Clearly, this means only one thing: the slash is real. *dies*
Also, how brilliant was the tractor-fest? From Jeremy breaking the tiny little rickety bridge to Richard's genuine worry about going over it (hi, Richard? The river isn't really all that deep and you're IN A TRACTOR. I think you'd have been fine.) to...well. Richard's fine attempt at shepherding a bunch of sheep out of the field was the funniest thing in the world. And then James and Jeremy were all "so, this is what we're going to do" and in the background, Richard was hurtling back and forwards while the sheep ignored him and Top Gear Dog lay down and I think I might have forgotten how to breathe.
Very, very funny.
It makes me blissfully happy that Top Gear Dog refused to round up any sheep, despite the encouragement from Richard-the-runner, and then Jeremy's voiceover referred to the sheep as sheeps, and I became slightly delirious with glee.
AND THERE WAS KRISTIN SCOTT THOMAS. And she asked what a Ford GT was, and Jeremy's face looked like the bottom had fallen out of his world. And then she proceeded to hate all of the cars he liked, and she drives the most useless car in the world, and she looked gorgeous.
THE SIGN. THE LOVE PROCLAIMING SIGN. I want an icon of that, very badly.
I also adored James throwing the little communicator thing away, and yet Jeremy kept talking. And how inept they all were at reversing a tractor - an hour to look at all the controls?! AND JAMES SANG. AND MADE A BAZILLION CHECKS BEFORE DOING ANYTHING.
*glee*

I can't quite find the right words to express my sheer delight at this episode.
Strangely, what should have been the best scene in anything, ever, wasn't my favourite of the whole episode. Here are a few bullet-points of things that made me go wibble:
- Gene went to tell the guy that It Was Bad To Do That To Sam, despite previously telling Sam not to be prattish around him. LOVE, I TELL YOU.
- Gene knocks on Sam's door in the middle of the night and then says 'It's me', helpfully, and despite being half-asleep, Sam knows it's him.
- Gene had THE BEST HAT EVER. That whole scene was brilliant. HATS AND BANTER. I might have died of happy.
- And Gene didn't (ohh, I originally typed 'died' there, and then I nearly had a heart attack because that is not allowed to happen.) mock Sam for his upsetness over that girl dying: he told him personal things. There was bonding.
