Top Gear will always hold the trophy for publicity, and one of the most entertaining shows on television (one of my all time favorites); that said, this piece was in bad taste, but I'm not offended in the least... I think it is in bad taste for the politically correct, I never signed that sheet.

an episode of top gear without offending someone isn't an episode of top gear.

I'm not entirely sold on this particular piece of Top Gear, because I don't think the offense it causes is worth the point it makes. I'm not offended by it, I just didn't think it was funny. Benefit doesn't match or exceed the cost.
