I do still enjoy Top Gear but it is a little predictable these days. I think the show in its current format will run its natural course over the next couple of years & probably morph into something different.

Both Carrie and I watched the last one on Sunday and it was ......... not right! far to "out there"
they need to get back to the good old formula and stop these long and long winded trials at being soap producers!

They lost it years ago - the 'mole' says the south american special is as good as it was but this series is crap - but why is the scripting so bad. Richard Porter from EVO used to come up with goods and his articles in Evo are bril.

The first one of the series was great - the trip to Eastern Europe etc. Rapidly downhill from thereon - watched a fraction of the last one before ----------------------- cant remember

It is a little canned at times but still makes a Sunday evening fun before the return to Monday mornings

Agree entirely. It's become very tired.
