I’d say more calculated than unfortunate
Perhaps there’s a sacking in the pipeline!
Funnily enough I thought the same!
You never know! Not my kind of show to be honest, and maybe my mind seeing the swear word first!
Where’s the new forum apostrophe Police? 
Can you use an apostrophe or a space in a hashtag?
I am quite sure it is deliberate.
Reminds me of when I killed a. Itnof time at a bmw showroom a couple of years ago. There were demo / advertising cars with big stickers on the side. 3 series, four wheel drive (which is x drive) and SE trim. Couldn’t believe the stickers said SEX-drive…
Amazon do NOTHING without an eye on the ££’s/$$’s and I am sure they expected people to talk about it! I was at Amazons HQ in London recently and it was eye opening all the way from the massive building without a single ‘Amazon’ mention on it!
No. Any punctuation breaks the hashtag at that point so this example would have become #amazon followed by 'shitcarshow.
I saw a similar discussion elsewhere on the web and tbh was surprised then that the question needed asking. This jape is from the same people that ran a BMW in the Silverstone 24H event with the fake Penistone Biscuits ad down the car’s n/s flank, with the letters tone on the rear door. Open the front door and it reads Penistone without the tone. Or the Indian specail where they draped a huge banner reading BRITISH IT FOR YOUR COMPANY along the side of a train, which when the train separated at BRIT the remainder was left for all to see. And for good measure the Amazon’s Hit Car Show tag was launched with a video of Hammond & May coming up with a ‘snappy sharp tag’ whilst Clarkson was away, the joke being that the two of them didn’t spot it.
I liked it, it was a bit of fun and did its job. Have to say too the latest Grand Tour series has been very good. It’s a shame it’s the last series with the next batch being 4 specials and no studio / tent segments, as they seem to have hit their stride with this one.
See… I told it would work Jeff !
