Brighton has a tradition dating back to the“Mods and Rockers” time of public violence, nicely portrayed in the movie “Quadrophenia” set in 1965....
I’ve only seen the one where they buy really bad cars in Florida and drive to Louisiana. I laughed but I got a little angry at the smug jab at America and NO.

My brother was over there and he told me it was different from the US. In the UK, the officials are quick to defend the criminals. He likened it to a wild-west town. His friend got busted up in a subway by a roving gang. The police said there was nothing they were willing to do.
If you film yourself doing something illegal and make it public in the US, the police will come after you if someone makes a complaint.
Thanks for that.
Watch as he discusses punching piers morgan:

For those that don’t know, piers morgan is a despicable liberal - former editor of the daily mirror - a left wing tabloid - he resigned after the images his paper printed of british soldiers apparently abusing an iraqi prisoner turned out to be false.
I didn’t know he’d done this - he’s gone up a mark in my book.
fugging awesome
LOL - Clarkson is really popular hereabouts, and we’re talking the sticks in the Northwest. Magic of the Internet, I guess. Pity the punks didn’t get a picture of him pulping one of their faces but that’s the price of staying out of jail in this Brave New World That Hath Such Creatures In It. BTT.
Exactly, Jeremy. Same story on this side of the pond as well. Making excuses for thugs and criminals has become an American pastime.
And btw, good show!
Being acquainted with Piers Morgan’s work, all I can say is thank you for the link, and sign me up for the Clarkson fan club.
My pleasure.
Yeah, I’ve read almost all of Dalrymples books. You can also read a bunch of his columns at
Thanks, I wasn’t aware of that.
Just what have you been up to?
Ruining birthday parties. It’s loads of fun. You should try it.
BBC America broadcasts Top Gear every Monday evening. It's great tv!
Yep. Got it set up on TiVo. Never miss an episode.
Ah Great.
Didn’t think you guys watched much UK TV. lol
It is a great show.

Is frizzy-haired the same as nappy-haired?
