I mean I think feminism is a good thing, but this isn't feminist, it's just ridiculous. People should just be allowed to choose whether or not to participate in such activities, and let the market decide if they should exist or not. Not make it blanket ilegal... Isn' Iceland a liberal country? In places like the netherlands, germany and switzerland, places with a lot of stuff in common with iceland they made even prostitution legal. why is iceland the opposite?

They sometimes mix films from different times. When James went back AGAIN to the square they started, there probably wasn't a camera crew filming him from the outside re-entering the square. So they decided to use old footage where he first entered the square and mix it with the footage from inside his car when he genuinely went back into the square again. You can tell its footages from two different times because from the camera behind the car at 5:50, you can see a lot of people sitting at the cafe at the right, the scene right afterwards where he is in car, there is no one in the cafe at his right.

Top Gear races are half scripted half real. Hammond, Clarkson and May, like their other races, did actually do this race as well. The way the race is presented to us is slightly scripted (reusing older footage, adding scripted gags inbetween and what not.). If they presented the race the way is actually was, it would be must less entertaining.

The roads they took are one-way. They probably knew how to get to the plaza, but going back would be different since they couldnt take the same roads.

4:24 perfect description of the Italian P26/40 during WW2: Also, in any other army, the P26/40 would be considered quite small. But in the Italian Army, they were huge.

Lucca is a very little town and most part of it is a pedestrian area. The area accessible by car is very limited and it's impossible to get lost (unless you need to fake it to make your tv show cooler), so no matter if you're a local or a tourist, you just have to follow the traffic sign, the way is almost forced, and you'll be outside the city walls in a few minutes. :)
