I struggle to see the BBC not showing this seasons final episodes though at some point. All the money spent and whatever people think, It is still a Beeb top viewed show.
Big decision if we never see it again.I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

Poor Jezza. What am I saying??? He's the very model of a self-absorbed tory git! The day he's fired from TG is the day I start watching it again.
Oh, and while we're at it, if the BeeB could see it's way clear to getting rid of that stunted chav too, I would be very happy. I've seen puddles of sewerage with more engaging personalities than "Hamster"...
And another thing. Can someone tell the producers that driving fast and drifting are two different things?

Clarkson is a great hairy oaf and an absolute twat.... but that is why people watch the program. Top Gear was around before him and it was just a boring, run of the mill car show. People watch because of his crass behaviuor. It is akin to Gordon Ramsey and his swear-for-the-camera thing. We complain about his language, but watch because of it.

Yeah, I get all that. I can remember being hugely underwhelmed by TG the first few time I watched it - looking at guys thrash exotica is cool for the first couple of times, but the contrived yob carry-on, combined with the absolute self absorption of Clarkson and the lack of personality of Hammond and May made it dreary beyond compare. And I wish I could see it differently.
The idea that being a hairy oaf with Herculean levels of entitlement is what attracts people to Clarkson is possibly the most dismaying aspect. IMO, it's time has passed - there are many, many others who do it better, provide interesting insight and have engaging personalities all through the internets (I'm sure I don't need to labour that point, people who frequent this type of website are usually enthusiasts - with the exception of crash.net - and know what's getting around).
Though it's continued popularity leaves me looking a bit like Robinson Carusoe....
Anyway, as you all were.

right on anfield...even his books are the same..you know they are full of his opinionated crap but the language and the humour (unless you are on the end of it, but even then) is why people find it funny - no need to take it all so seriously all the time.

WRC2 will be very mouthwatering. Very hard to predict the winner. Normal stances I would pick Suninen but he has the Hyundai shitbox... Toyota will also be a big question mark, but I think they will...
