like im late
Only thing in hindsight which annoyed me about Rory is how they’re making him to be the James May style character - getting randomly lost and then driving brought a cricket game....

The last two episodes didn't really do it for me, first four I really enjoyed.

Can't warm to that bloke Rory either, he is just annoying.

We are about to end up with zero car programmes.
TGT is almost finished shooting it’s last series and there is a lot of questions surrounding the future of TG as well

Ah fer f*** sake.

Can we just get the old lads back?

If not, don't know who would make a good replacement? .. .. Jay Leno!

There's plenty of "car progammes" on Youtube that are great.

He's nearly 70, a bazillionaire and probably has less interest than being away from his family than Le Bland.

I hate that you're right:sob:

It'll probably be another YouTuber if anything.

Clarksons 3 year contract must be up now he was never "sacked" his contract wasnt renewed...

All good timing for a return.

Clarkson Hammond and May were old news long before the incident.. Clarkson done the BBC a favour.

I thought I wouldn't like the new lads but most of the episodes were pretty good I thought.
I'm sorry to see Le Blanc leave.

It is a shame but I guess was inevitable. The fact he will have stayed for 4 seasons is impressive as it stands.

He will be tricky to replace

As said I really like him and thought he chemistry with Harris was great. Cannot stand the other 3 at all.

Jay Leno is the most boring car host on the planet - I cant listen to him and no offence, to his lisp. Just cant warm to him as a car show host. Tried to watch a half hour video on a mk4 supra recently with Paul Walkers brother but had to turn it off after 5 minutes as he was just so dry and boring.

I would happily watch Top Gear with Chris Harris, Henry Catchpoole (DriveTribe/Carfection), Sabine and Jethro Bovingdon (DriveTribe) - maybe even Sir Chris Hoy?

Roadkill was genuinely great but it's now disappeared off youtube and is doing it's own thing on its own paid website.

Can't stand those two balloons on MCM. Some of the stuff they do is cool but I just can't listen to them.

Shame about Leblanc. Was really growing to like him.
