I enjoyed it but they are kinda losing their way somewhat. A 50/50 split of the fun stuff and the car reviews would be better IMO. I like it when they do proper road tests but do something amusing in doing them.

FFS there has been 7 series (in the current format) did anybody REALLY think they would change the format for this one.
Who gives a toss about reviewing cars would you seriously take a Clarkson review of car as a serious test drive go buy yourselves Autocar mag if you want reviews.

But you watched it though?

I can't stand Coronation St and rearEnders, so I don't watch them. Nor do I search out internet threads about them to post on.

I can't understand why some people do this with Top Gear.

I doubt it - I'm 47 and think it's brilliant. The problem is the anoraks who think it should review cars. If it did it would have an audience of about twenty people, all male. As it is, it's the most popular program on BBC, and unusually has a roughly 50:50 male: female split.


But for the love of G*d, ditch the non-entity in a reasonably priced car.

I love top gear, it's so funny I actually laugh out loud sometimes! Not the best for reviewing cars but I'm not particularly bothered about that. We all know what Top Gears like so if you don't like it, don't watch it!!!

Enjoyed it tonight. I agree witha a poster above, please, please ditch the celebrity bit, I was fortunate to be able to fast forward that bit.

I still think there is room for a UK version of the Best Motoring format.

You would be surprised how popular topgear is out of the uk. I'm still waiting for them do a topgear lap in a Veyron.
