There's no way a show with Chris Evans at the helm will be just another car show. He'll have Grannies racing diggers against toddlers in Ferraris. That's what he does. I think it looks like a good balance.

I'll give it a watch, I'll watch most things car related programs.



Except that Classic Car show with Quentin Wilson, that is the biggest pile of sheoite to ever grace my TV.

Loved the old top gear for what it was , that is , an hours laughing , cringing , and listening to what you thought was a good car being verbally abused only to find out that actually they were right , because when you strip away the loudmouthing and hashing if Clarkson says it's good you can believe him ,e.g. lexus LFA , m3 csl , GTR . The new show has the potential to be a better ' car ' show than the old one if the presenters are used to their best , can't see it being as entertaining but could be just as enjoyable .
Thing is I consider myself a petrolhead and love TG . my friend is a car person, as in mk one and mk two escort which he knows everything about , he also
knows there's some connection between Ferrari and red but that's about it , he doesn't get TG at all , watched it once for 15 mins didn't learn anything and never watched again , you can't please all of the people all of the time !

He's 6'2.

Did not know that! Always had him down as a shortarse.

I'll give it a watch, aside from Evans and the competition winner as I've never seen him present etc, I like the presenters.

I'd imagine they'll have Chris Harris do the Tiff Nedell style sideways driving.

I recall one of the very first 'new' top gear episodes had Clarkson drive one of those awful Peugeot Partner people carrier variants to France to load up on booze and him raving about how good it was!

The Stig strikes me as a joke that went on too long and is now a gimmick for the kids tuning in.

Even 5th gear is probably a better car show....but Clarkson & Co were always better and more entertaining to watch on a show that included cars too.

It just looks like TG are trying far too hard...and really no idea what they're trying to achieve with such a random lineup. I think they could only make it worse with the addition of a cock like Chris Moyles or something.
They'd have been better sourcing new people and talent with no previous well known careers.

Basically proper drivers have been drafted in to disguise the fact that Chris Evans can't drive and speak to the camera at the same time. Doubt If Evans will be doing much driving, he'll be told to do presenting of other segments instead
