Top Gear is about the only thing on telly at the moment worth watching.

Whether or not the irritation between the three of them is set-up or not, it is very entertaining stuff!

Guess I'm a bit like Clarkson in the old spanner department - only spanner I know how to use is a good old Irish one!! ;D

Another vote for Top Gear being the best thing on TV at the moment, only thing that lets it down is
that some of it seems staged.

I think Top Gear is better than Fifth Gear but Top Gear is lacking VBH. ;) I also thought Jeremy Clarkson was the dogs twitcher until my daughter bought me one of his books now I think he is a moaning git.

lol, i saw VBH at Brands Hatch few months back think she was going to do some interviewing or something, saw her just walking from the car park to the track.

TBH, TV make up does a lot!! - She did't look all that great  :(

I think you'll find that most of what happens on the show is stage managed (a bit like American wrestling! ;D) but it makes for damn good entertainment. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Also, the way Clarkson & Co chuck the cars around ain't exactly how you're going to drive them on the road, but then that's the whole point of the show I guess - to show you what some cars are really capable of.

Once you get over the fact its not really a car review show, but a comedy show based loosely on transport, its funny as opps :)

Right on the button there Jaime, if you want to watch a car review show, that's what 5th Gear is for.

Gotta be TG on both counts - you get to see some great cars being driven as the makers intended them to be and some top entertainment and comedy. 5th Gear is good but no where near as much fun to watch :)
