Just a reminder about the new series that's on Sunday at 8 pm. Comparing yesteryear's hot hatches with the new breed. Should be good. Damn sight better than painting and diy'ing all bloody weekend......grrrrr
I agree totally, but next to down town Abbey or x factor or to be fair anything else on a Sunday evening it's tv gold!
Was the worst episode I have seen. Surely they could have come up with something that was an actual test of modern day hot hatches to old ones and be much more entertaining than that!!!
What a disappointment. Totally staged and a waste of what could have been a good test. I must be getting old because I was thinking what a waste of food it was when it could've went to people in need.
Laughing from start to finish keep it up guys but please get rid of star in a car so boring ps sod the people in need they can get a job if need be and dont be fooled by this africa lark their governments take most of it
Thought it was very poor. No actual comparison even attempted, roll on next week with the p1 at least!
It was pants. Trying to hard to be funny it was overly scripted. I'll watch the next and if it doesnt get any better I will probably write this series off altogether.
I guess I’d say it was mildly entertaining at points but utterly pointless. I can’t but think it’s about time they done something with the format to freshen it up. Call me sage like but I’m expecting a race car Vs some other form of transport, and a foreign trip AGAIN. Will watch next week as I want to see the P1 though.
What a crock of shit!! Soooo staged, "oh where ar my keys" what a buch of pricks!! Although I will still watch it as its better than some crap the missus wants me to watch, Roll on F1 :-)
i got very bored watching last nights. it will probably be another series of 6 episodes with one or two actually being decent. it is very staged which is annoying but still watch it incase i miss anything lol!
Poor. It needs new blood/presenters. Contrary to most, I don't mind Hammod. May is okay if they play to his strengths. Clarkson is the buffoon of the trio. Trouble is - it's his 'game' so he's never leaving. Franchise is more about the live shows they do now I think - raking in the money - the TV show supports that rather than the other-way round. BBC should pull the plug on Clarkson and (Andy Willam's?) company and commission another serious motoring program on BBC3 IMO.
Dissapointed by it tbh, mildly entertaining, but didn't really compare the hot hatches of the past to now. I know they have a ridiculously tight budget but come on now. Still next week should be a good episode.
Naa I always have a flutter on button, raked me in a good few hundred in 2012 but lost me a good few quid last year, looking good this year :-) Fingers crossed he will bring me enough for a hybrid :-)
i find the f1 a bit yawn if I'm honesty can't beat the door handle to door handle racing of btcc three abreast into a corner etc
yep it is a bit vettel, vettle, vettle, but its a sunday afternoon with a beer thing and it beats football
3 blokes messing around, hasn't been a decent motoring show for years! When cars are released/tweaked/re profiled on a daily basis how can you realistically record them all and coincide with the press drives of the cars? As an entertainment program I enjoyed it. As a motoring program it was shit.
I was disappointed. They could of done a proper test of 80's hot hatches against today's and it could of been just as entertaining, not just for us but for people who watch it for the entertainment. I agree with the past comments. It needs a rewrite to freshen it up. 5th Gear was my choice of motoring program but the last series of that was turning into Top Gear too. Why can't we have an entertaining motoring series that doesn't try to cater for everyone? I mean the football programs don't do it so why do it for motoring? Roll on the start of BTCC and maybe F1 will be good to see what difference the new regs make.
