The reason i liked Top Gear was the three presenters it was their interaction that made the show. A knob head like Chris Evans being in charge of the new top gear will just ruin it for me. I will be watching the other 3 on Amazon

Call me old-fashioned, but I am waiting till I have seen a few before I decide whether I like it or not... :D

I am one of Clarkson's fans, i have never been a fan of Evans. There is room on TV for both shows i just cannot see myself watching Evans and his over sized ego

You are obviously never been enamoured with Chris Evans certain style which l suppose is a bit like marmite in that people either like him or they don't like him.

I think the same goes for Clarkson

Personally l think the public prefer Clarkson more then you do Chris Evans but it will be interesting to see how both shows are received when they air.

I believe he has calmed down a lot in the last decade - I think it's called "growing up"...

Well that was utterly disappointing. Evans was overly irritating. Not quite sure what the point of it all was as none of it was funny. Hopefully it'll settle down a bit (or a lot for that matter).

True, but some people can't get over their dislike of a person based on something they heard.. I know a person who has a massive fan of Denholm Elliot, then found out he was bisexual and never liked him after that. I argued that it didn't matter who he bedded (within reason), he was still a fine actor.

Everything I've heard about Russel Crowe leads me to believe he's a complete Arsington in real life, but I can't help but admire his on-screen performances. He's a very good actor.

Meanwhile, I watched tonight's Top Gear and enjoyed it. It was a good start. I think Evand was trying a bit hard at times, but that's unavoidable given the show's recent history and the pressure not to kill it off.

I've yet to watch it, but watch it I will. Even if I think it is a complete pile of crap, I'll give it a few episodes anyway, as it sometimes takes a new presenter a while to find his or her feet, and they have all new presenters.

Well peanut we agree on something :shocked:. I don't know what I was expecting but I didn't expect the same tired old formula and tired old gags. We watched 2 blokes drive a couple of three-wheelers to Blackpool in the rain. I mean, riveting it wasn't.

The whole thing should have been re-vamped. The old show had become stale and the first episode of the new show felt stale too.

Ginger has lost his bottle.
