For what it’s worth, new series of TG Sunday 17th Feb BBC2 8:00pm
Not what it once was, but I’ll give it look.

Top Gear New Series (Spoiler Alert!)
- Thread starter Audi Bairn
- Start date
It'll be approximately 1.2 million* times better than that other thing on the pay to view channel run by tax dodgers.
* rough estimate that I calculated on a beermat

........same i'll be watching but it's still not the same. Having said that, the latest series of the ''famous 3 '' on Amazon has been pretty poor in my view other than the fist episode in America which was great.
I may get shot for saying this, but even in the latter days of Clarkson et al on Top Gear, I preferred Fifth Gear as it was more like what TG used to be (eg more about driving the cars and doing reviews). TG became too contrived latterly imho.
But it’s a car programme and I like cars

I’d agree. Fifth Gear was far better as a car show
All these people moaning about presenters.
I don't care me.
I will watch any motoring programe on the box if I could

..........apart from that annoying horrible laugh from that butler henderson !!!!!!.
Disappointing to hear. I’m recording it so will watch it in the next few days and pass comment.Well this is another let down
I recorded it then watched it after it was finished because I thought I would end up fast forwarding parts of it.....and I wasn't wrong.
I was impressed by the interior of the Panamera and some of those roads in Norway......but the rest of the episode was very dull IMO.

TG wasn't too bad IMO and agree it' a shame 'Joey' is leaving.
Got Amazon now and tuned into S3 of the tour (first time I've seen any of it), all I can say is I marvelled at how dark Hammond's hair has got over the last few years ( almost as brown as May's teeth
- has he not got 'dental' ) that was pretty depressing but then JC turned side on to camera with his 32" 501s and it looked like a total eclipse - WTAF.
I'm no Richard Gere either but I've recently driven an Aventador, one of JC's favourites I believe, and I can assure you there's no way his gut would fit in there.
Me and my boys used to enjoy their stuff but now it's just really sad watching these 3 old twats pretending they're still teenagers (whilst hoovering up Amazon's tax free money). IMO they should seriously consider jacking it in, or at the very least take an honest look at themselves in the mirror, they've got kids ***!!
Edit: maybe the Beeb'll consider them for a new series of Last of the Summer Whiiine? ( cue lambo engine noise).

The German female presenter in the Panda was just trying to hard to be funny IMHO

Agreed i ended up fast forwarding that section. I almost felt sorry for Ferrari PR though knowing what has gone in that boot
