      "One does not simply walk into Mordor" said Boromir... Frodo decided to take a 747 flight to mordor and tossed the ring into the fires of mount doom. Boromir was baffled, he said "Well, guess thats that, off to gondor bois".

      @@migdaora Because the BBC is a public broadcaster, they're not allowed to show of brands or products from companies because they're not allowed to advertise or even accidentally do product placement. The only time they mention brands is if they are critiquing or reviewing it. In that way, they are free to mention any product they want (so long as its for reviews or critiques) and no brand gets more exposure for it than any other.
      The fact they forgot to censor halfway through is probably just an editing mistake.

    • @shorthouse06
      @shorthouse06 5 років тому

      @@harryrichardson7628 BBC is taxpayer funded and doesn't allow any advertising, which includes product placement. This means that shows have to blur out all company names and logos that aren't relevant to the show (car brands can stay because that's the point of the show, but the airline company is irrelevant so it has to be blurred out). This is to ensure that there's no "under the table" product placement going on (e.g. perhaps virgin airlines could have said to the top gear producers "Hey, show our logo on the back of a plane in your show and we'll pay you £100,000"). The fact that all logs are blurred out means that this can't happen, and therefore we know that they used a virgin plane for this shot just because that was the easiest plane they could get, not because virgin paid them. If this was a show on any other channel you couldn't be so sure.

    • @HS-PGX
      @HS-PGX 5 років тому +6

      - Aaronbatics - the engines are actually designed to break off very easily in an emergency. The GE90 (the world’s largest engine fitted on the 777) has only two super strong bolts. It is designed this way so that in the event of a ditching, the engines break off and don’t cause the plane to break in half. This is due to the fact that the engines would act as a sort of scoop, slowing down the plane too rapidly during a ditching. Obviously this can be harmful for the passengers as they can suffer whiplash and slam their heads on the PTvs in front. As demonstrated in Cactus 1549 which landed safely in the Hudson, both engines broke off the A320 and ended up at the bottom of the Hudson River. Nobody had any life threatening injuries.
