I watched episode 3 today and have to say I really enjoyed it! It was very car focused and even the celebs bit was good and funny. The whole show felt more of a Fifth Gear type affair rather than a Top Gear thing as there wasn't any funny or witty moments that I found funny.
Although I enjoyed the Ken Block bit for the sheer engine noise and sideways action, it felt a bit empty and pointless.
I like the hatchbacks bit but would have liked to see all 3 cars go down the TG track by Stig.
I'm out ! Cars/bike vs train to Venice. Wow ! That's novel....NOT

I really would like to join in this weeks rant at NTG but.... i didnt bother watching it, decided to cut out the disappointment by just not bothering.
Its ok for a sunday could be worse
It was an alright episode. Just alright.
It was better than nothing! not too bad
You only need two tools in life - wd-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the wd-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
And if you can't fix it with a hammer,you've got an electrical problem!
Yeah, now the gingewhinge will claim its because of the footy ect... and he has a small point
But... even so the BBC decided to put it on at this point in the year, they didnt need to. Plus i bet it will continue to fall to circa 2.1m and stabilise around there which footy or not is shit.
Do you know the ginge well enough to know the size of his point ?

He does, but they've already settled out of court so it won't be in the papers
I asked Billie Piper.
Eddie Jordan needs to stay off the Tv. He was annoying on the F1 but spoon rattling is the final straw. I really want to swear!!!!!
Extra Gear is better than the main show
I just watch it on the iplayer and skip the bits I don't want to watch
Watched this week's last night and I enjoyed it again, yes you can be picky and pull it apart over this and that but I find very little to watch on the tv I enjoy and it's a decent motoring program.

Yep, as above still entertaining, still worth watching and still better than anything else that was on yesterday.

Trouble is when you fast forward so much of it you forget it pretty quick.
They need to stop doing 'challenges' they're pretty cringe-worthy and not very interesting to watch.
The set piece films like the Aston or Ken Block blasting through London are very good.
Some of the minitests by Rory and Chris are good too. Its the buffoonery that the old presenters did well enough to get away with that Evans is unable to replicate. The rivalry is missing from the challenges.
