Practically Classics Forum

Wonder what others think about this ridiculous program presented by baby face you know who.....child like in the extreme.....with things like a porche racing against a chap on roller skates with rocket motor fitted......or any of the other stupid presentations...........

Moved to "Off Topic" as Top Gear isn't about Classics really.....

It's not much about cars either.....

It is fun entertainment. Not much use for buying a new car but it is just about the only comedy on the TV these days that has not been strangled by Political Correctness. Recent few series have not been as good. They script too much these days whereas the earlier series were more spontaneous and improvised.

I like the fact that they say edgy things and get in trouble for it, Mexicans, Lorry Drivers etc. The world needs more of this, not all the free speech stifling PC, too frightened to offend anyone crap!

I'm glad they destroy Morris Marinas and not Morris Minors. Their first trip across the USA was the funniest hour on TV for years.

Strike me down. I like it.
I prefer classics too. How can that be?

Sorry.

I enjoy TG too,it brings out my inner 10 year old,not that it takes much

TG's harmless fun with occasional bouts of serious car-related stuff being thrown in for good measure. I find that most - possibly all - of those who criticise the show are people who haven't watched it but didn't like it because their mate told them not to.

I managed to nab a chinwag with JC at a show a few years ago and found him to be a most engaging, highly intelligent and charismatic chap whose TV persona is carefully constructed to take the p*ss out of those who don't get his particular brand of irony. Naming no owners' clubs in particular but they know who they are.

i like it... im fed up with pc tv

love it - really good entertainment

I love it, I've got most of their DVDs.
