週末はスコットランドでテント収録に同行していたリチャード・ポーターさん（「トップギア」からの台本担当）が、日曜夜8時からというファンにとって思い出深い時間に3話を解説してくれた。

現在ちょっと時間がないので、後で読み返せるようにツイートをまとめておくだけにする。そのうち時間ができたら訳すかもしれない。

「グランドツアー」3話ネタバレ注意。

At 8pm GMT this evening I'm going to Twatterise along with the third episode of The Grand Tour. Join me. Or don't. Up to you really.

Alright, here we go. The Grand Tour, episode 3, script editor Twitalong. PRESS PLAY.... NOW

I discovered this weekend that Jane May really is the name of James's sister. So there you go.

@colinbritton Might do

このネタ今後も続くのか！

I'm almost certain we used to call the batter bits from the chippy, 'scrapings'.

We cut out a bit about Jowett there, in case you're a Yorkshire car enthusiast and you're about to write a stiff letter.

An HUGE cheer from the Whitby studio audience when Hammond arrived in this VT. From this we must conclude, N Yorkshire likes a muscle car.

Jeremy tells me that he's getting loads of messages from Milwaukeeans beside themselves with excitement at being mentioned.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

We can only begin to imagine how they reacted when Alice Cooper did that bit in Wayne's World.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

I think there's a bit of Hellcat trivia that cut out here...
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

...which is that, when Dodge developed the Hellcat engine, they had to upgrade their test rigs or the motor would have torn them apart.

It's also, if you're interested in such things, based on the Hemi V8 but 91 percent of it is new. TROO PHACT.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Behind the scenes fact: When we do voice over, Jeremy has to keep his left arm dead still or you can hear his bangles rattling on the mic.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

I imagine they have the same problem when recording Keith Richards.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Insider fact: The little intro thing for Conversation St was inspired by the titles to pompous 1970s discussion shows. Hence the music.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

@donsmacl Presenters always arrive at studio in some interesting cars, for the benefit of the title sequence.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

@C0RTN33 DVLA, I think. They are accurate. Beeb reported before: https://t.co/zOh0A9PlGz
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

We cut out some conversation based on this local story: https://t.co/z4SBRcBQIh Remarkable.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Aston actually paid an outside company to come up with appropriate warning sounds that were, 'suggestive rather than demanding'. TROO PHACT
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

I presume they mean 'suggestive', as in politely suggesting something. Not the sound of heavy breathing or something.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Jeremy and James didn't just go off to buy a thing for Hammond. They also went to the Maserati museum.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

((Ｊ｀・ω・)`ﾟДﾟ) 　　　[→マセラッティ博物館]

One of the newspaper reviews of this show tried to explain the 'Car-men' gag, as if we didn't know we'd done it.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

I looked into this DB11 quiet start thing. Quick press on starter button for noise. Long press for quiet. Good idea.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

The latest Nissan GT-R has something similar. Good that car makers finally realise some people don't want their neighbours to hate them.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

This Rolls-Royce is SO James May. He is, after all, a man who has recently put a picture of a Corniche convertible on his office wall

During our time in Whitby I ate fish & chips for five consecutive meals (excluding breakfast). And that didn't seem weird.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

The first night we were there, we went down to Mr Chips for a sit-in meal. One of my colleagues made a disappointing drink choice.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Here is that colleague. Fish and chips with a half of fizzy lager. Pffffft. pic.twitter.com/TPrKouULeT
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Whereas this colleague chose well. Yorkshire fish & chips with a bottle of Timothy Taylor's Landlord. Perfect. pic.twitter.com/GXyYVQBXgl

@skipptg That's Gav. He's part of our gang.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

@kccoop07 @Nir_Kahn In fairness, all television is scripted and edited. It would be a shambles if it wasn't.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

これはよく言われていることだが、本当にそのとおりだと思う。台本も編集もなかったら全然まとまりのない番組になってしまう。

The internet seemed to think that wasn't really Jeremy's house. But it really was. I've been there.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

Well that's that then. More fish & chip themed nonsense about The Grand Tour soon.
— Sniff Petrol (@sniffpetrol) 2016年12月4日

おまけ

これはひどい。
