Stephen Fry is driving around all 50 states of the USA in a TX.

So how many of you are watching to see how far he gets before it breaks down?

Is it a TX2 or TX4? At least he'll have plenty of leg room for his six foot five frame, lol. I wonder how the air conditioning will cope when he reaches those parts of the states where LTI vehicles really shouldn't go?

It's a "Left Hooker" hired in the the states for the series. He's off to "The Deep South" next! Wonder if he's ever seen Deliverance? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Here little English piggy.

I wonder if Fry will do anything to overturn the negative American sentiment in the TX2? Perhaps Fry is driving the only TX ever to be sold in the States.

I should point out the taxi is NOT Stephen Fry's vehicle.
The BBC hired a left hand drive for the programme.
