I havn`t watched for ages. The phrase "What a weapon!" used by one presenter in a trailer just about sums up the attitude. Cars should never be regarded as weapons.

I haven't watched since the original three have left. Loved that show. No interest now.
If you want cringe worthy, try the American version of the show. Horrible!

I haven't watched since the original three have left. Ah yes, they were the best. Angela Rippon, Noel Edmonds and William Woollard - the dream team!

I didn't know it was still on. Although we all got a bit tired of Clarkson, May and the little chap, at least they were petrol heads and whilst providing good entertainment, also gave us some useful info on the cars and with the benefit of the passing of time they seem to be very good.
I will admit to looking at some of the American shows which at least feature cars that perhaps will not be allowed for too much longer.
Here for a good time not a long time!!

I record it, watch the bits I want. It is what it is. Should BBC bring back Angela Rippon?
There will never be a car prog to suit everyone. Look at the range currently on tv.
The mainly US hot rod/refurb type, Bangers and Cash for UK older cars, the electric conversion series, reruns of other series. Occasional documentaries can be good, depending on your preferences. The Race to Perfection series is one.
Take your pick.
There is a basic formula that most tend to follow with tweaks added.
If you think about it, what format would you put together that would be broadcastable/commerciallly viable for the range of people?
I am happy to dip in to most and watch selectively.

Ditto, and anyway it is a comedy show.

Watched a new episode for the first time this week.
Monkeys with typewriters could have done better. Yet they then also let them present it after typing.
Never have I resented paying the licence fee more.
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
