 Re: Mr Higgs yellow spesh on telly
Forgive me, but didn't Hammond deride the car and its owners by saying, and I quote, "Owning one would rob you of all of your dignity." F*ck you Hammond, at least we're no short arses.

F*ck you Hammond, at least we're no short arses. I don't think it was particularly derisive. And there's an element of truth in it ... I love these cars and wouldn't be without one for long, but they're not always the most dignified of vehicles. I wouldn't turn up to a funeral in one, f'rinstance.
