Coincidence or Deliberate?

Unread post by david63 »

... that is the question.

I am referring to the Top Gear number plate.

It would be so out of character for Jeremy Clarkson to do something like that :sarcasm: :moresarcasm:

I don't get it ? What's all the fuss about? It looks like a perfectly normal number plate to me.

Me too Gravy but there is obviously some significance attached to it .. although what I haven't a clue :roll:

Maybe someone can explain.

The number plate was H982FKL

The Falklands War was in 1982
The Falklands was in the FalKLands

Not sure what the significance of the H prefix is though

Thanks for the clarification.Now you've explained it I see the connection but you need to look pretty hard for it.

Deliberate, without doubt. As ever, funny and irreverent, though. Does he have another book coming out for Christmas? There's no such thing as bad publicity.
