I prefer Channel 4's Car SOS Tim and Fuzz are great presenters and real people get real cars fixed up. Exotic cars and locations are fine in James Bond, but a car show ain't proper unless it has grime.

Absolutely love the idea and I actually think that Trailer looks better than the TG with Clarkson in, as if to say with the massive budget they've made it even better. That trailer was epic, everything I expected and more. Its like one giant Top Gear special of old but a whole season of it.
Amazon are on a winner. I signed up for prime for 1 year and ordered a firestick because of the Grand tour. I wonder how many other's will sign up ?

Re: [Updated] New BBC Top Gear trailer released

That looks like it might actually be good. They have gone back to the format of three guys having a laugh, rather than the approach of the Evans fronted series with many different hosts.

That does actually look good. Hopefully they can pull it back from the last one.

Hopefully they've embraced the fact they're not the old Top Gear.

Re: [Updated] New BBC Top Gear trailer released

Well Matt Le Blanc has planned to retire in his 50's.

Plus he is worth overt $60m so doesn't need to work.

What they need to do is have some ex-F1 drivers.

This series of Top Gear was thought to have put the brakes on the show’s decline since the ill-fated one with CHRIS EVANS at the wheel.

But it seems it’s hit the skids again.
The final episode of Top Gear with frontman Matt LeBlanc drew in an all time low for the show

Sunday night’s episode, the final one of the series with MATT LeBLANC drew in an average audience of 1.89million, 10,000 LESS than Evans’ all-time low last year.

An insider said: “Although the series hasn’t had any major issues, it hasn’t attracted the huge numbers it used to.

“This year was all about stability because it is a huge global brand for the Beeb and has to work for them. But the ratings have dropped slightly on the last show which they’re not happy about.”
Source

Doesn't look like they've managed to re-create the old magic.

I actually enjoyed the entire series. I didn't miss the old trio one bit.

Re: [Updated] New BBC Top Gear trailer released

it definitely got better as it went on, the team starting to "gel" more, although they seem awkward when "chatting" to the star in the car still.

I found Rory annoying to begin with, but I thought the last 2 episodes were very good, and he didn't annoy me

Re: [Updated] New BBC Top Gear trailer released

I try to watch it but around halfway I find I can't take anymore of LeBlanc or the other two nonentities and have to delete it.

Sure it is better than the Chris Evans shows but if the audience keeps dropping it is ultimately doomed.

I probably won't bother with the next series at all.

Come to think of it The Grand Tour wasn't up to much either.

Re: [Updated] New BBC Top Gear trailer released

How is this a Current Affair? It's a poxy TV series about cars that always has been boring no matter who presented it.
