[TV] Top Gear New Hosts

Rowan Atkinson is a petrol head. A funny man too, but in a much more intelligent kind of way. He would be good for the show I think.

I may be wrong but I’m sure that I read somewhere that when he’s not acting he has a bad stammer so he may not be the best as a presenter. Have you ever seen him interviewed on a talk show? I can’t recall it myself.

Yes on top gear.

.... The person that came to mind was Chris Tarrant.

"So, which one of the four cars you drove on our Top Grear track was your favourite?....."

"Ooh, I'd say the Mercedes AMG. Power. Control.. etc..."

"Final answer?"

"Wrong show"

"Bugger...."

Thanks for the heads up on McGuiness and Flinthoff, I will carry on reminding myself not to make the mistake of watching it.

Starts this Sunday, great shame about Matt Le Blanc he was very good but let's move on, hopefully we see Rory included

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

The Freddy and Paddy show might be just a bit too manic and northern. They both occupy a similar 'space'; might need a bit more contrast. Each is OK ish on his own - but together?

Like playing Glenn and Tomer up front.

Dave Lee Travis deserves a shot.

Sorry, deserves to be shot.

Rearrange the following words into a sentence: Mouth, sodding, your shut.

Only kidding. He's an actor. He has no actual personality or presenter skills of his own.

For me, Adrian Chiles and Charlotte Church would nail it. Get in the ****ing back seat!

I lost interest when the presenters became more important than the cars. Most stunts are little more than children's TV.

I like Top Gear, old presenters (and on Grand Tour) and recent. I only hope that this doesn't turn out to be just a series of silly stunts. The trailer is not encouraging on that front.

Is there anything more silly than banging your car and doors into someone else’s car every time you meet up? It’s been silly evert since Clarkson, Hammond and May took over (I do for the most part find it watchable though)

There are degrees of silliness. The bumping thing was a bit of a running joke that probably outstayed it's welcome. The last series of Grand Tour was IMO slightly different and enjoyable.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

Jury out on Flintoff but watchable thus far. I'm not missing Rory.

 

[southstandandy]

Looks like A League of their own but with cars

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Will give it a go for sure

New series starts tonight and these three are very good in my view.

I watched the Christmas Special and the new people were ok all the while they weren’t trying to ape the banter of Clarkson and co. Unfortunately they were a lot of the time.

They need to find their own style. Ideally they’d also introduce things that weren’t there previously, taking it into a slightly different direction.

It's a difficult act to pull off the one of taking over the hosting of any shows formatt and not constantly being compared to previous hosts and the BBC have not made a very good job of replacing Clarkson et all but I really like this group of characters and yes they ape the banter a bit I guess a lot of it's scripted and hopefully as you said this can edge away from previous presenters styles over time

Well, from what I've just seen at half time in Citeh game, there is absolutely no chance I will ever watch again.

Hitting golf balls at a convertible car being driven by someone in a dinosaur costume. What a sad sack of cack and a total insult to anyone's intelligence.
