The problem with Top Gear...

Is that when I watch, I think James is cute. Obviously, he's been my go to fantasy celebrity for the last few years.

By season five he's kinda cute.

By season seven he's really looking good.

Eight starts a more 'classic' May look.

Season ten really starts turning into someone handsome, some shoots more than others. It's the infamous Stelvio episode and the first American Special.

Eleven is a bit shaggier and he's got a few more pounds on him and it really looks good.

Bolivia I think is really I really start going wow. And I keep thinking he can't get any better looking, until the next episode comes on, and then I think that's the best he can possibly get.

And then we get to S21. I think that's my favourite look. Ukraine. Maybe it's the green sweater, maybe it's the wild hair. Maybe it's the slightly lived in wrinkles and pudge. The first photo is clearly his mind force photo - *this* is your card. Only my brain thinks he's saying 'you will come home from the pub with me'.

And this one is just... *phwor* It's clearly freezing, raining, miserable, and they've just been given terrible news, but he looks amazing to me. He's got a few cold sores going on and missed some spots shaving but the entire little clip is probably one of my favourite gawking moments. Can't forget Naked!Stelvio and The wet red Ramones tshirt and putting on his jeans in Bolivia, but every fan likes those. I think Чернобыль is mine.
