SHE IS NATURALLY DEVASTATED BY THE NEWS.
MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN FRIENDS WITH THE DUNN’S FOR 18 YEARS AND WE’VE HAD MANY WONDERFUL TIMES TOGETHER.
DUCKS BARBECUES ARE LEGEND, HIS LAUGHTER THE MOST CONTAGIOUS , AND HIS CUSSING WAS OF AN OLYMPIC STANDARD. I DON’T HAVE THE WORDS TO MEASURE HIS LOSS HAS HAD ON ME. I JUST KNOW I’LL MISS HIM SO MUCH.
R.I.P. DUCK
BRIAN.

Sadly, after a good start, the Bentley was left in the Fisker’s rear view mirrors.

The good news is that they have added a few chapters of the Audio Book to the Top Gear web site – have a look here
