Thrustyjust Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Big foot things has done the missus in, shes gone to watch anything else !! Think the darts are on.................. but I did enjoy the Mclarens.............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonPeffers Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I tried to watch it but was totally bored; sadly even with the Lee Mack bit and he's usually very entertaining. There is just no chemistry or magic in the show. It's doomed Captain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_mcp Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I enjoyed last nights show. Admittedly I fast forwarded through the celeb and reverse camera bit, but otherwise fast cars and automotive toys were aplenty! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 didn't think anything could beat a party political broadcast for out & out boredom , but this reset the boredom benchmark to a new level ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigHew Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 There were some decent bits and some terrible bits. Best thing is it reminded me to watch Monkey Harris's review of the Holy Trinity again on Youtube. It runs to about an hour but very very watchable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No longer do I make excuses to be at home at 8pm on a Sunday. I actually want to watch it in a format where I can fast forward. Clarkson, Hammond and May had such chemistry and poise that it was possible to believe the entire show was unscripted and we were watching 3 mates dicking around. These guys are reading a script... badly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrustyjust Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I think that since we had no response from last Sundays episode sums up what people think ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory's Dad Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I thought this week's version was much better except for the two stars. .. which again was useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonPeffers Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I mostly watched the latest episode and the Extra Gear as well and thought it was a bit better than usual, probably because I once hired a Dodge Charger in Canada and love 2CVs. On Extra Gear Rory Reid said of the Ariel Nomad ' 0-60 in about 3 seconds, costs next to nothing.......about £30 grand.....super affordable.' It set me wondering what salary he was on if £30k was next to nothing. I haven't traced his salary but did find SEP 27, 2016 https://carbuzz.com/news/bbc-pay-matt-leblanc-2-million-to-host-top-gear 'According to the BBC, LeBlanc has signed off on a £2 million ($2.6 million) deal to be host for two seasons on Top Gear.' With BBC collecting £3.7BN in licence fees plus £1.3BN in Commercial income I suppose they can afford super salaries. Rory Reid driving the basic Kia backwards was just plain ridiculous.

Terryathome Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 It was painful watching the last series. It hasn't changed, watching somebody paint a fence would be more enjoyable. I want my tv licence refunded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve (sdh2903) Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Why do people who moan continuously about how crap it is keep watching? Then moan how crap it is! If I don't like a programme I don't keep watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonPeffers Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I suppose Top Gear has, for so many years, been such a hugely profitable, entertaining, BBC icon, deep down we all hate to see it die and strenuously hope for some sort of recovery. Hope springs eternal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
