Yes yes he is a knob but he'd trash a car not paint it white and put it in a glass case. I'll say nowt if you are still watching I just watched through. It's ace cos it's just a lark which is what it's meant to be. 2 tossers of the street plus evans stroking his ego is not that and never will be. It will be wipe out or that tagiskis castle however it's spelled
If I am offered a direct choice... which I don't believe will occur.... between itv car show with the trio and bastard used evans gear on BBC there's only one winner. I fully expect BBC to move it to Friday nights at 10pm for evans to turn it into a music show and it'll be cancelled quietly
From what i've read ITV are getting the original threesome to make a show that goes head to head with Evans' new one on Sunday nights at 8
I think nothings been signed so I'll be surprised if it's itv and not Netflix from every rumour. But for me a direct choice = no choice at all. This last show displays something. They don't need to go to borneo to clown about. They only need to be having a right laugh like this and showing us class cars
I think they did the voice overs after knowing this was it. May said buffeting 2 or 3 times driving at 5mph. Clarkson got his line in. I think they deliberately turned in in a weird jacket for may and a ****er goatee on hammond and the elephant in the room was funny.
Evans has already said he won't be a carbon copy. He's been given licence to write his own format. He's also said he wants it to be more of a car show again
For shame. Had I ever engaged in innocently smutty small talk like rhc does I'd now be giving you the cold shoulder
The elephant in the room isn't a new thing for them though. Clarkson's said the same thing many times before on Top Gear
Yes but it's a nice little jibe isn't it. Nobody mentioned the elephant in the room as they did the really strained intros. Frankly they should not have done that at all and voice overs were enough. It was like the remaining show producers were telling BBC clowns exactly how stupid they are.
The tuxes and the voiceover coupled with the general nature of the 'challenge' seem weirdly appropriate for what has happened, everything just gliding towards total destruction, pushing the 4x4s off a cliff, but in ceremonial dinner jackets May: 'I'm going to spend the rest of my life in a pen full of sheep' @luvgonzo have you been getting at him??
That is saying oh I do radio. 1. I ain't going outside the country 2. I plan on rocking up reading a script off and running out ala krusty the clown doing adverts. 3. I'm a ginger nurd who wants to talk engine cc It entirely misses the point of what top gear became. It was not about stars in cars which was mostly a phone in slot. It was about doing silly things and having the mess.
