I beg to differ - anyone with a decent understanding of media studies is far more likely to be shaping Top Gear rather than 5th Gear.

I saw the second half of 5th Gear last night and it was almost decent. They had the bit about Nick Freeman and then the Merc was run over by a 1250bhp Monster truck that does 30 gallons to the mile

How fu**ing irritating is Vicky Butler Donkeyson ?

She used to confuse me sexually, but now I just want to slap her like a ginger step-child.

Fifth Gear actually makes you appreciate how GOOD Clarkson and his crew are.

The problem with 5th Gear is they have no fresh ideas. How many times have the smashed 2 cars into each other and spent 15 minutes showing you it from every possible angle? You're better off in a new car in case you missed it. I wouldn't be surpised if next week their imformative piece showed you the shocking results of a red car hitting a black one.

An hour is far too long for that show, even 30 mins would be stretching it.
