Oh dear! Please BBC, just swallow your pride and accept that Top Gear is dead. You'll save yourself and everyone involved a good deal of embarrassment.

I would put my money on it being a dead duck by the end of 1st series.

Lets wait and see ANYTHING is better than the three schoolboys, it's been un viewable for the last 3 years just so predictable in it's mediocracy.

Sabine will be well worth watching if they let her race.

I don't know whether anybody saw Chris Evans on The One Show the other night on the tribute to Sir Terry but I didn't think he looked a well man

Maybe I misjudged it but he looked very thin and seemed to have a lot of studio make up on

I don't know but I wonder if he's feeling the pressure in trying to produce Top Gear ?

His hair didn't look so orange - we noticed that. Maybe the Beeb should have rested TG for a year or two, but it was such a cash generator.

The real problem here is the money, the BBC could afford to do a lot with the money brought in by Clarkson and team, I once watched US top gear, good format, good cars, good location, I switch off because the presenters were dreadful.
Clarkson was an entertainer, sure he upset liberals and socialists but he entertained so now Amazon will do well.
As to Evans seems he gets car sick as well as the rest and sorry he's not my vintage generation so I'll pass and the BBC can go back to having a smaller budget and being as politically correct as it likes, I saw something on International tonight that makes me cry, once such a great organisation but taken over by the luvvies, still I can go out and enjoy the Morgan instead and tune into Amazon to get my fix.

I did and Caroline made exactly the same comment about Chris. He looked thin and tired.

I think Top Gear should be alowed to Rest in Peace.

Yep, it is a mistake reviving programmes. Personally, cannot stand either of the blokes so will carry on not watching TG, as I didn't when Clarkson and Co started getting stupid a few years back.
