Sorry but if he really did hit somebody then he should be fired - if I hit one of my colleagues it would be instant dismissal so why should he be any different just because he is a celebrity, surely he should be setting a good example?

what I think is hilarious is all the reruns on Dave. Everytime I see them I think is Top Gear back....? They should have rebranded it. I like Chris Evans to a point but he wont feel the boots im afraid......not sure what will happen with reruns of Top Gear and reruns of Top Gear - 3 , CB

Lol I agree gone from man to whimp, even though I think JC is up himself he was good on TG. Chris Evens is desperation.

They had no choice but to go with Amazon. They were blcked by the bbc from making a car based programme for the TV for 2 years I believe it was.

perhaps if they start they can make 104 episodes now and then sell them to ITV in 2 years time. We would have withdrawal symptoms by then. reckon call it Third Gear. CB

I have to say their little adventures five years or so ago were funny but for the past couple of years a lot of it felt so contrived. Clarkson is arrogant but he's not afraid to say what he thinks. I'm not a fan of fence-sitters and his columns are often entertaining. He also used to have tortoises I believe...don't know what happened to them or whether he still has them.
I can't help it but Hammond gets my back up. He tries too hard to be funny. The males in my house will probably give the new series with Chris Evans a go but if Jodie Kidd is presenting it'll get the thumbs down.
We certainly won't be subscribing to Amazon Prime for Clarkson and Co.

I m not keen on the little vole either but JM and JC are v funny most of the time. It is informative too - I learnt a bit about what colour not to get and where the engine sits so can't be a bad thing.

Captain Slow has always been my favourite. Out of them all he tries the least to be amusing and as a result is often the funniest.
