Kristen Scott Thomas's Interview and Lap Time | Top Gear

My guest tonight is a Hollywood star currently starring on the West End stage and in one of the great classics. She is the epitome of cool. How did your heart beat while you were talking about it? How did your tongue get bigger? and gentlemen, please welcome Chrissy Scott. Has it been the most horrible day of her life? No, I enjoyed it, I enjoyed driving fast and relatively dangerously, well it wasn't fast because it was just too fast for me, was it yes, because I'm very slow, I usually hit my nose on the windshield, so you're here on this moment, obviously starring in a play in the West End, that means you're living in London, um, yes, during the play, yes, during the play.

So what are you driving around London? So, wow, wow, wow, the little electric, yeah, nice car. I've always liked how to lie, no, no, no, it's all nonsense. People have misquoted me. I'm thinking of buying one. You should but I don't think it fits in there, that's the problem, no I would. I would have seen pieces of it. Mine has tiger stripes all over it. It is also very attractive. I like that idea now that you live in Paris. Yes, how does it compare? In London the traffic is worse and I like driving in Paris I don't really like driving in London Is there a difference in driving style that you have to adjust well?

Yeah, I mean, I got four pet traffic violations in my first week in London. -Wiz, there is no way, yes, obviously, not speeding, no, that would be difficult to write, driving around the Arc de Triomphe, it is a great adventure in life, I love it, it is incredibly scary. I did it once in a Ford GT. It was very complicated, that Ford GT is a vertically beautiful Nullah olive green car, it damages the environment quite a bit. I like it, but there is a

time

when you reach the Arctic finish from only eight, here we go.

I love it, it's like jelly. It's a lot of fun, the trick with the Arc de Triomphe is that you don't have to look, wait who's coming towards you, just watch where you're going and have a very beat up car, yes, no, never try a nice rug, always. worst car you can get because then everyone would avoid you and this is one of the reasons why I should have chosen you as the cool muse on the wall if you see what area because you do you are on both sides of Europe in Paris in Europe for me en It's a lot cooler than Los Angeles and even New York, but do you really mind if I pass a few cars in front of you?

Yes, I tabulated its freshness. Okay, obviously, this is very cool. Yeah, where's Klein? I hope you have my specs there. Sorry mate, you described it as a wart last year, the only problem you can find is getting into it and on the rainy night you have to choose between the lady. Creepers Lights, look, that's not in the brochure and I'd just like to say that when I said it was a wart I was thinking more in terms of Cindy Crawford's mole, so you know this guy is absolutely brilliant for London, so thank you very much . that's cool now we've often said on the cool wall that we anticipate because you live in Paris that small European cars like to vote well Renault and that's a little Citroën and that's a little scary they're cool yeah we have right, yes, I think. the rhinos are not yet what not the fear closed that a little a little iffy on the back little how iffy yes I don't like the back it's like see I know I agree clown little the points are rubbish someone quietly go and move it down and we've also said this sort of thing, Red Burn, I love it, I may have accidentally said in the past that it was a Cheshire footballer's car, but that's okay, that's great, that's fabulous , years pass if his cool ball just got destroyed that's a good chainsaw last week your machine gun strafed him good good friend four wheel drive cars I don't really like those yeah I'll move them all down last week he I used to have one and got rid of it, would you like it?

You have, I would love it to be a big Volvo, something xc90. I have no idea what dying is against when the Xena is really huge. Yes, I liked those seven seats. Yes, that's right, that's what I have, all in one. year no thanks like Richard Hammond what came of that I'm right can I just say rolls-royce? I'm a bit ambivalent about Rolls Royces yes, Richard Hammond was down to one this morning I think we were a bit silly yes maybe you should have done it right now Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder more importantly this is yes Walt what's pathetic isn't it? yes, so cancel that order yes, I know, yes I act like a sensible person and what a Volvo no no No, the children go around and evolve, but obviously because they are going back to school, I have to have something else and I thought it would be rubbish and now I know that if I can, I will keep going because you will one day be here as the protagonist. on the seagull and the seeker, yes I know seagulls, not about a seagull, no, John, no, it's about well, I think I could, just guess, just to see like one, not much happens and then act 2, not much and then act, everything happens fine.

It is between the acts that someone comes out and tries to shoot themselves in the head and then Mrs. lady. That's when everyone was at the bar and he came back and he had a bandage on his head. Now this is completely sold out. Yes, I will get tickets and God knows. I have tried the other thing about the check. I really like the check. I know. I have nothing to do with marking, but I found that I have only done two works. I'm already boring for anyone who wants a job presenting Top Gear. Directions to BBC Wood Lane London W12 7TS.

And now we will find. obviously in a minute how was your lap, do you want to owe it? to tow the car we went too fast we'll get lost well no, I just stopped driving well I'll tell you what you'd like to see around I'm glad okay, let's put the tape where it is and get started it looks good, no, this is soft blue, perfect in everywhere, again it's wrong with that, a little Chicago and again, not a big hit. Hugh Grant did that and then that was my mate, damn he look where you've been there, he's terribly muddy now here. you're going fast full speed for you no that's full speed i can hear the tortured tires screaming no this is the fastest you've ever gone that's not very fast and then we cross the line perfect where do you think you could have come with you ? probably mark what's down here what Brian Cox I have no idea I have no idea what

time

it was look you did it in 1 minute 54 seconds the male Philip Glenister faster than Rick Wakeman faster than Brian Cox and much faster than Jimmy Carr I have to say I thought you were better at that than I would be at a Chekhov play.

Yes, that's how it will be. It has been a real pleasure having you here, as I am sure you will appreciate it, ladies and gentlemen, Kristin Scott Thomas.
